Ergodyne N-Ferno® 6471 Thermal Bibs/Overalls, Black, XL

These bibs were incredibly lightweight but still very functional. The elastic ribs insert made for a comfortable fit while still retaining heat within the bibs. The zippered breast pocket is functional for items such as a phone, wallet, or ID badge. I think these bibs would benefit from rear pockets that you could use for a pair of gloves or wallet. Overall, I really liked these bibs as an alternative, lightweight option to traditional duck canvas type bibs. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Living in the upper Midwest we have certain things that we can choose and equipment is one of them. What we can't choose is what mother nature is going to throw at us from November until April. I still have a pair of Ergodyne's original bibs. They have lasted that long. It might have been 2010 when I originally started wearing them. I was able to finally use their new bibs and noticed QUITE a few upgrades. First the Nylon outwear is noticeably heavier. You can feel the weight, which equates to more protection and more rugged performance. I also noticed the snaps and zippers. The zippers lost the small rubber block that you walked on and added the snap to keep the inside liner where it needs to be. They added more reflective accents to make sure you are scene. In the north, we work hard and play harder in the winter. It is way easier to enjoy the outdoors with great equipment. Ergodyne continues to produce high quality products that are battle tested and last a very long time. Don't stop at the bibs, they offer a full layering system to keep you warm and comfortable in extreme weather.
