Bibs/Pants for below freezing

[mrkronyak]

I didn't want to steal a thread.

I'm from Northeast PA and with predator season in full swing I'm looking for new bibs or pants. The problem that I've run into is that many of the products have contradicting reviews and the cost is insane.

As a predator hunter I'm walking in and setting up for maybe 45 mins at most. I currently use some old Field & Stream insulated bibs that are bulky and the wind cuts right through them. I'm a bigger guy so I also sweat alot.

I've researched many of the major brands and just can't narrow it down. What are some of the warmer low/mid tier bibs out there that will keep you warm, block wind and not sound like 200 people shuffling? Keep in mind I'll be hunting negative to single digits at times.

I recently picked up a "like new" pair of Kryptek Aegis bibs on ebay for $85. They are insulated with primaloft, wind and water proof. Ive used them twice so far and really like them.

I'm in western PA and I picked up a Huntworth coat this year, and it's as windproof a piece of gear as I've used.

I have Cabelas bibs that I've been using for years but I'd buy a decent pair of Huntworth without hesitation

That's a great price

Kryptek Aegis going on 9 years in Northern Canada and still cannot find an issue with them. Warm, comfortable and tough. Three way leg zippers, two way fly, pockets and will keep you dry and warm.

I have the SKRE Gear guardian bibs and coat. It's a super warm setup not really for hiking though.

Is it quiet and thin?

I ended up ordering this set because they had the buy top get bottom free. Worst case I return it and try something else.
