Work hard uphill. Stay dry anywhere.
Bibs outperform pants in the backcountry because they seal out snow and cold at the waist even when you are bent over, digging a pit, or pushing hard on a steep skin track. The Rab Kinetic Alpine Stretch Bib is built for exactly those demands with 40D Pertex Shield 3-layer construction and 4-way stretch at 140gsm delivering 30,000mm waterproof protection with 25,000g MVTR and the mobility to match. A fully articulated fit eliminates restriction through the hips and knees during hard skinning and technical climbing, and an integrated RECCO reflector adds passive search capability for rescue teams. AquaGuard 2-way side zips with internal storm guards and triple pullers allow fast on-and-off, and harness-compatible AquaGuard thigh pockets keep essentials accessible with a pack and harness in place. A reinforced inner leg kicker patch and elasticated internal snow gaiter complete a feature set built for serious alpine days. Upgrade your lower-body protection and get more out of every day in the mountains.
