Gradient bibs

Fits athletic as expected, they are soft, quiet and warm. Since waterfowl season is over, I haven't worn them on a hunt, however I do believe they will live up to my expectations.

Warm and Comfy

I bought these for my son for Christmas. He’s an avid duck hunter and loves these bibs. He stays warm in the blind and they stay in place. We are very happy with our purchase.

These things are absolutely amazing.

These things are absolutely amazing. They were loose enough that I can still bend down, squat, and move without any issues but still tight enough they layered extremely well with no pressure points or anything from the fabric bunching up under my clothes. The foot cuffs are a genius idea and don’t dig into my feet at all when I’m wearing my boots. It also keeps the bibs from bunching up as I put my waders on or even going into my boots under my brush pants. I bought this to wear during the winter trapping season and it was invaluable. Kept me warm without being overly bulking allowing me to break ice, drive stakes or whatever I needed to do to keep my trap line up. The straps are comfortable and keep the bibs in the proper position regardless of the position you yourself wind up being. The zipper makes going to the bathroom fairly easy when layered up as well

Comfort and warmth !

The gradient cold weather bib is a great product. They are super warm, comfortable, and fit nicely underneath the Sitka waders. They don’t hike up or get bunched up like other layers I’ve tried to wear as a base layer. They do tend to be on the smaller/ thin side of sizing, but that is most likely to keep them tight for the waders to go over them.

Great layer with one flaw.

This bib is a game changer for real cold weather hunts. Warm as can be without sacrificing mobility. Perfectly body-mapped insulation. The only flaw is in the chest zipper. No matter what I do the zipper falls down opening up the chest and letting drafts in, it’s maddening. It will fall all the way down to your crotch. A simple top snap would likely fix this, I’ve been using a safety pin. Still worth getting, tho. The warmth is that good.

Super warm

I have uninsulated waders, and sitting in the marsh on the coldest of days I only had these under my waders paired with alpaca socks. Kept me warm the entire hunt. Of course I had more up top but for my legs this was more than enough to keep me warm. I recommend them to all my buddies running uninsulated waders.

SOLVES EVERYTHING

Pls make one in every color. It’s perfect for everything. Perfect mid to even outer layer for anything. So comfortable and since it’s a bib, you don’t have to have the perfect waist size like you do with the pants. Best thing I’ve ever gotten for hunting

Gradient cold weather bib

The Gradient bib is perfect insulation under my Delta wader. A Velcro tab above the zipper would be a nice addition. There is nothing to button the top of the bib other than the zipper.
