Im looking for a new set of bibs, I want them to be warm and dry but I also don’t have 400 to drop. My price range is right around 200~Give me some recommendations of what you like!

Thanks!

This. You can probably find the Baker bib on sale somewhere right now and while not being a super budget option it's super high quality.

I’m still growing a lot so I can’t spend a lot on bibs as I’ll just outgrow them. I know Virtika has taken some heat but us there stuff anygood?

Been using Dakine's Gore-Tex bibs for the past few seasons. I believe their current one is called the Stoker. No complaints from me. Super waterproof and enough room to layer up on the colder days.

Not my favorite. I’d spend a little more and get something warmer.

Was gonna suggest this. Super simple yet practical designs and ive gotten 4 years of skiing out of mine if we're talking in terms of durability.

Get a nice shell for roughly 150 and then layer. Best way cause if you get too hot you can take layers off. ez
