Fit + Ride Tip
This bib runs in a relaxed articulated fit — plenty of mobility without being bulky. If you’re layering with heavy midlayers or down pants underneath, size up for max comfort.
Fit Tip: Drop into your natural stance (knees bent, torso flexed). If it feels snug at the thighs or hips, or pulls through the back panel — go up a size. The stretch zones and cinch waist give you freedom to adjust once you’re dialed in.

Care Guide
Your GORE‑TEX PRO shell is a high-performance tool. Treat it like one.
How to Wash + Maintain:
-
Zip and secure all openings, flaps, suspenders, and the drop seat.
-
Wash using a tech-specific detergent (like Nikwax or Grangers). Avoid standard detergent, bleach, or softeners.
-
Use cold or warm water, gentle cycle.
-
Rinse thoroughly.
-
Tumble dry low to medium — heat helps restore the water-repellent DWR coating.
-
After 3–5 washes, reapply DWR using spray-in or wash-in waterproofing products.
-
Spot clean gnarly dirt early — don’t let grime embed.
-
Store it dry, uncompressed, and out of direct sun.
-
Small rips? Use Gore‑Tex repair tape or patch kits before they grow.
