Price Paid:  $350.00 at Second Hand

Summary:
I purchased these primarily for skiing and mountaineering. The fit is exceptional, and they are very durable. At first I was a little worried about the 3/4 lentgh zippers, however, this makes them much more comfortable while wearing a climbing harness. The only minor gripe is that the straps don't have buckles, so when you want to take them off you're forced to take your jacket off. A little pricey maybe ($600ish cnd.) but you get what you pay for. Made in Vancouver British Columbia too!

Customer Service:
Not needed so far.

Summary:
These bibs are by far the best I have ever owned. They are lighter, fit better and more functional than any bibs on the market in my opinion. You might spend $50 more for these than another more popular brand but what you get is worth every penny.

Customer Service:
As with all companies that know their products are the best they are slow.

Product keeps you dry and comfortable. Very durable and lightweight. I received a lot of compliments on this product. These bibs are excellent for layering. Several of my freinds purchased these bibs and they said they were very satisfied with them. They are a invaluable product to add to your outdoor gear wardrobe.
