Flylow Bib Finder

by Flylow Staff

Start Here to Find The Best Bib Ski Pants For You

Here at Flylow, we’ve become something of an authority on bibs. We started making bibs because that’s what we wanted to wear skiing. On a storm day, bib ski pants offer more protection and a touch more warmth. (Plus, they have extra pockets.) If you can’t figure out which bib is right for you, we’ve got some pointers.

Our men’s Baker Bib and women’s Foxy Bibs—Flylow’s original bibs, first designed years ago and updated since—are still crowd favorites. But we've vastly expanded our men’s and women’s bib collection since then to offer a wide variety of bibs to suit every type of skier and rider. 

You really can’t go wrong with any of Flylow’s bibs—they’re all waterproof, breathable, durable, and ready for a big day in the mountains. But which bib is right for you? We’ve come up with a short quiz to help you determine the perfect bib for your style and needs.

Find Your Perfect Bib

Which of the below best describes how you like to ski.

  1. I run hot or spend a lot of time in the backcountry and need a pair of bibs that are breathable, streamlined, and can help regulate my temperature.
    This Describes Me
  2. I ski everywhere, in all conditions. Backcountry, resort, spring days, mid-storm. I'll take it all. I need do-everything bibs that prioritize versatility, adaptability, and durability. 
    This Describes Me
  3. I run cold or spend most of my time inbounds. I'm not afraid of insulated pants if it means I can stay out longer.

Breathable Bib Ski Pants We Designed For Backcountry Skiing and Beyond

Men's Bibs - Breathable, Backcountry Focus
Jump To Women's Bibs

Smythe Bib

Our lightest weight bib, the Smythe Bib has been designed with a durable but streamlined fabric that has enough stretch and mobility for backcountry pursuits. The Intuitive PHD Stretch 3L fabric is waterproof and breathable with a mechanical stretch. Designed to be light, temperature regulating, and super comfortable during high-physical output, this is the bib you want if you're a multi-lap kind of backcountry skier. You'll love how this bib moves with you when touring and releases moisture before you sweat, while still offering the weather and storm protection you expect from a bib.

Because we value versatility, the Smythe Bib works great at the resort, too, but our designers and testers developed this bib ski pant with 80 to 90 percent backcountry usage in mind.

Baker Gore-Tex 3L Bib

We took our team favorite Baker Bib and made it with Gore-Tex's ePE membrane, which is PFAS-free and has some of the most robust waterproofing and breathability you'll find anywhere. This is a durable, long-lasting three-layer bib built for storm protection and all-mountain adventuring, but for those who need breathability and huge vents for bootpacks and tours, it has you covered there, too. You'll get cross-flow venting and some of the most premium fabric on the market.

Stash Bib

Some backcountry skiers swear by softshell pants, because they're light, nimble, and breathe well on sweaty ascents. But pure softshell isn't always durable enough for mountain travel. So when we created the Stash Bib, we decided to blend fabrics so you get the best of both worlds. A light, stretchy three-layer softshell where you want mobility and a tough, storm ready three-layer hardshell where you need protection from the elements. The result is a pair of bibs built for backcountry travel—breathable and well ventilated for long climbs, yet waterproof and burly for the way downhill. The fit is trim enough to cut bulk and it's got a long center-front zipper that lets steam out.

  • Baker Bib - We designed the Baker to excel in all conditions. With plenty of venting and 20k of breathability, it works as well on the skintrack as it does skiing inbounds.


Women's Bibs - Backcountry and Breathability Focused

Siren Gore-Tex 3L Bib

Made with three-layer Gore-Tex, you'd be hard pressed to find a better bib than the Siren Gore-Tex 3L Bib for backcountry touring, whether you're logging heaps of vert or just spinning one lap. Thanks to lightweight, waterproof and breathable fabric, the Siren Gore-Tex 3L Bibs will keep you drier on the way uphill, thanks to market-lead breathability. The result? You won't sweat out your baselayer and turn into a popsicle on the summit. Although the Siren may feel lighter and less warm than some of our other bibs, it'll actually keep you warmer and drier during high-output activities. It also has a low-coverage bib top, so it offers more ventilation and less material up top.

Foxy Bib

The Foxy Bib has been a crowd favorite for years. This bib fits just right and ticks all the boxes for the passionate skier. In the backcountry, the Foxy Bib offers durability and stormproofing to keep you warm and dry on the uphill and down. On the skintrack, a breathable fabric and plenty of side venting lets you control your temperature. It also offers a stretch fabric for ease of movement when touring, while reinforcements in key areas offer added durability for those days you ski inbounds.

If you spend a decent number of days touring each winter, but you wouldn't necessarily consider yourself a fast-and-light backcountry skier, then the Foxy is probably the bib you're looking for.

Versatile Bib Ski Pants That Can Be Used In All Conditions

Adaptable, Do-Everything Men's Bibs
Jump To Women's Bibs

Baker Bib

This is the bib that started it all for Flylow. It represents the core of what we're trying to achieve here: skier-designed gear that aims for functionally, durability, versatility, and style. We originally designed this bib because we wanted the do-it-all bib that would be comfortable and usable in any situation in damn-near any mountain range in the world. All these years later, that statement holds true, and thousands of Flylow customers would probably agree—you can't go wrong here. 

The Baker Bib is the perfect bib if you like to charge hard at the resort, set the booter up hike-to zones, dip out of the backcountry gate for a lift-assisted lap, and make time for a handful of days on the skintrack. The beauty of the Baker is its versatility. It's equally at home in a tram as it is on a skintrack. It’s not our lightest weight bib but it'll get the job done on the uphill, whether you’re on a hut trip or a dawn patrol lap before work. If you like to ski everywhere at a fairly high level and you want pants that withstand a lot of abuse over the course of a diverse season of skiing, then the Flylow Baker Bib is for you.

Baker Gore-Tex 3L Bib

If you love the Baker Bib but want to level up a notch, the Baker Gore-Tex 3L Bib is it. It has all the trapping of your favorite bibs—durable, reinforced cuffs, huge vents, tough fabric—but it's made with Gore-Tex's next-level ePE membrane, which is PFAS-free. For top-of-the-line waterproofing and breathability in a durable, all-around package, this is a very solid choice.

Stash Bib

The Stash Bib has a hybrid fabric that makes it perfect for a wide range of skiing. The Stash Bib has more focus on mobility and stretch—it's less heavy-duty and burly than the Baker Bib but still fully stormproof for all conditions. It uses Empel DWR, which is PFAS free, to keep you dry. Utilizing a blend of hardshell and softshell fabric, and with a long center-front zipper for easy access and ventilation, the Stash Bib is a versatile bib for a wide range of uses.

  • Firebird Bib - A three-layer hardshell ski bib that's versatile and easy to wear. This is a crowd-pleasing bib—not too overbuilt, but still streamlined enough to go for a hike. 


Women's Bibs For Go-Everywhere Skiers

Foxy Bib

There's a reason the Foxy Bib has been one of the most revered bibs in the liftline for years now. The fit is dialed for the modern skier who likes to do it all. The stretchy fabric allows us to make these with a more tailored cut where you need it most, while still offering the mobility you need to to ride lifts or climb mountains. The Foxy is fully waterproof and breathable and perfectly suited for a skintrack or bootpack where your core temperature will heat up.

The goal with this bib is definitely to strike that perfect balance of performance, durability, and style for the skier who does a little bit of everything.

Moxie Bib

The Moxie Bib is made with a breathable, hardshell fabric that's reinforced in key areas like the knees and seat. This provides the Moxie the utmost in weather protection and durability, making it more of a resort-oriented bib with a backcountry habit for those days you want to venture out the gates. The main difference between the Moxie and the Foxy is the cut: Whereas the Foxy has a straight-leg, more slim-fitting cut, the Moxie offers a subtly relaxed fit, giving you room for a touch more flexibility in your layering system (in case, you know, you decide to wear two pairs of long underwear).

Think of the Foxy as a 40/60 inbounds to out-of-bounds ratio and the Moxie like a 60/40 inbounds to backcountry. It's a fantastic hardshell bib ski pant for women who get after it all over the mountain.

Honorable Mention

  • Siren Gore-Tex 3L Bib - You cannot beat the breathability and waterproofing of the Siren Gore-Tex 3L Bib, which is made with Gore-Tex's industry's leading ePE membrane. These bibs a lower-coverage bib top, for those who prefer less fabric up top. The athletic, streamlined fit is slightly more slim fitting than the Moxie Bib. 


Bib Ski Pants Designed Primarily For Colder Weather or Resort Skiing

Men's Insulated Bibs
Jump To Women's Bibs

Baker Insulated Bibs

We took our team favorite Baker Bibs and made them a touch warmer for cold days at the ski area. The Baker Insulated Bibs are lightly lined with 40 grams of recycled insulation, which means they’re warm enough to block wind and chill but not so stuffed that you’ll overheat. (Besides, we gave you ample venting with inner and outer thigh vents and a light, breathable hardshell fabric to make temperature regulation a breeze, pun intended.)

You could still wear this bib on an inbounds hike or a cold day in the backcountry but our design intentions were to give you all the trappings of our stout Baker Bibs—articulated knees, reinforced cuffs, waterproof zippers, and lots of pockets—but in a lightly insulated form that’ll keep you the right temperature all day long.

Snowman Bib

The Snowman Bib has 40 grams of insulation layered in its construction. This is the bib for bitter cold climates or the person who has a better day when they are sure they'll stay warm. Let's be real, we've all been on some miserable fixed-grip lift rides mid winter before. Because of the insulation, it makes a lot more sense as a resort piece, but if you've ever been to the Canadian Rockies or Colorado in early January, an insulated bib like the Snowman could definitely make a touring day or two a year more tolerable. It has vents if you need them.

Know that we've put a ton of thought into ensuring they feel trim, athletic, and ready for out-all-day skiing. The world does not need another doughy insulated bib. The world does need a quality, durable, stylish insulated bib so we made it. And we're confident it will make certain ski days way more tolerable.

Honorable Mentions

  • Baker Bib - Because it works great everywhere. (This is the shell version for those who don't need insulation.)
  • Firebird Bib - Not insulated but plenty warm enough for cold days, the Firebird Bib has a freeride fit and resort-ready style. 


 

Women's Insulated Bibs

Drift Bib

Warmth and mobility are key for women in the mountains. We get that. But you also don’t want to sacrifice fit and style. We designed the Drift Bib to check all of those boxes without compromise. It has a two-layer hardshell fabric with a touch of body-mapped fleece on the backside to keep you warm, dry, and out all day while storm skiing at the resort, but the perfect laid-back vibe and freeride fit for shredding laps in the terrain park or posting up at après on the deck on a sunny spring day. And, like all of our women’s bibs, we give you plenty of pockets for stashing snacks and gadgets, an expansive side zip for nature calls, and side venting for temperature regulations.

You’ll wear these bibs if your dream day includes powder hunting, sidestepping to back bowls, and speedy top-to-bottom laps.

Sphynx Bib

The Sphynx Bib is our women’s insulated bib ski pant that’s quietly becoming a favorite of Flylow customers. Why? Because getting cold ruins ski days and nothing helps keep your legs and core toasty like a quality pair of insulated bibs. Though you could go for a hike in these, the Sphynx Bib is much more adept when you’re riding lifts. They’re especially clutch when you need to hitch a slow double chair to the goods on a wicked cold day. We literally designed them to prevent double-chair butt freeze (clinical term...look it up), thanks to its reinforced seat.

Second only to warmth, style is important with insulated bibs. We made sure these bibs look and ski like a high-quality shell pant, no need to worry about the marshmallow effect. If you live in a cold climate or just generally run cold, this is your new favorite bib.

Foxy Insulated Bibs

It’s no secret that our Foxy Bib is a crowd pleaser. Skiers love the Foxy because it fits just right—not too baggy, not too tight—and has all the high-performance features you need for an all-day ski mission, like waterproof/breathable fabric, ample pockets on the chest and legs, inner and outer thigh venting, and tough reinforced cuffs so you don’t shred the bottom of your pants.

We took all those time-tested features and applied them to the Foxy Insulated Bibs, which are built using the same mold as the Foxy Bibs but with an added layer of 40 grams of recycled insulation. If you run cold or you’re spending all day riding frozen chairlifts, this bib is a great option. Don’t worry about overheating—that’s what thigh vents and breathable, air permeable fabric was designed for.
