Gradient Cold Weather Bib Reviews

Brad S.

Verified Buyer

Very warm, worth it.

These are great. Got them because I wanted the gradient pants but in a bib. I was pleasantly surprised when I got these and they were heavier and more insulated. Bought to wear under waders and I am not disappointed.

Limited poskets

I have an earlier version that has no pockets in the front or the rear. completely useless and I have thrown them in the trash. Looks like they have added front pockets to this version but not rear pockets. Why is Sitka so adverse to having rear pockets on their waterfowl pants? If people don't like to use rear pockets, then don't use them.

Fantastic purchase

I am 5’9” 155 lbs 32x32 pants. Fit allows polar weight base layer underneath. Bought to wear under dive bomb waders. These bibs are a game changer. Prevent low back cold spot and move well. I fell into knee deep iced over water and bibs were repellent enough that my torso stayed warm and dry. Feet were sloshing in water but once that water in my boots reached body temp I was fine and stood in that water hunting 2 more hours without a problem. These are fantastic.

Gradient cold weather bib

Everything except the fit is perfect, I ordered an XL as my waders, Hudson bibs and Dakota Hoodie are XL and run big, even the gradient pants are XL, these are hard to zip all the way up and zipper keeps coming down.

I’m sold-

I just used the cold weather bibs this AM for the first time. Pairs with a high end uninsulated wader perfectly. Big snow storm in Arkansas has ducks moving…. . super comfortable and do not bunch up. Will be great for deer hunting and will tuck easily into knee boots.

These things are awesome!

These have far exceeded my expectations. I wear the sitka heavy baselayer under these and then my waders and I havent gotten cold yet even in 5 degree weather. In fact I find myself needing to unzip my duck oven jacket and partially unzipping these bibs to heat dump after adjusting decoys, or doing any type of movement because i get too warm. I would absolutely recommend these to anyone and I plan on wearing them in the whitetail woods too next season. I'm 6'5 and 245lbs and these fit perfect. 5 stars

These bibs under the delta waders and insane. Busting ice and setting out decoys I never felt the cold. Under the Dakota bibs when you’re laying out in a field are amazing

Great mid season layer, works

Great mid season layer, works well if your waders have a small leak to keep you dry. Could be warmer and neoprene thermal stocking boots would be a nice addition. Ive also used these as a water and snow layer to stay warm and dry as well on upland hunts

Foot Loops Are Key

Great design, bought specifically for the foot loops for wading, always get my base layer and mid layer bunching up after a bit of action. These hold my base layer in place and make cold spots no longer. 4 instead of 5 due to no ability to adjust chest and belly for better fit under outer and wader belt. Wader belt makes these bibs bunch up on one side around my belly which is uncomfortable when sitting for hours on end.

So warm

I bought these because the Sitka waders don’t come with a liner. That’s my only complaint with the waders. That said these bibs are very comfortable and warm. I hunt big open water so for me Under 30 degrees with wind you will still need thermals under them. .

Gradient Bibs

It's crazy that when you start using something new, you wonder how you got by without that product. These bibs are just that. Amazingly warm and comfortable. Great under waders, under my Hudson bibs, and just by themselves. I don't hesitate to talk about these bibs with other hunters, worth the money.

Very warm with one flaw

The Gradient Bibs are super warm. Worked great under my waders while duck hunting. My one dislike is the zipper doesn't "lock" at the top. When wearing as a base/mid layer it fits snug so when you bend and move, the zipper wants to unzip. Not a big deal, just a little annoying.
