ArctixWomen's Essential Insulated Bib Overalls

I am 5'5", ~223 lb Korean woman, so most of my height is from my torso, not my legs. I tend to be a L or XL, depending on the designer. My weight is evenly distributed throughout my belly, seat, and thighs. (I'm a rectangular-shaped body, NOT a pear/apple shape.)Ordered: White in XLArrived: 11/09/2018, on time and in good condition.Arrival condition: No rips, tears, or malfunctioning zippers. Like new, no marks on the white fabric. The "tabs" used to adjust the shoulder straps are made of a hard plastic and feel a little flimsy. I hope they will withstand tough winter wear.While this may fit far better on European bodies, for this shorter Korean lady, the bibs ride up a bit due to my long torso, unless the straps are *completely* extended. Luckily, at maximum extension of the straps, it is *barely* at the point of not riding up when attempting to sit. If I had bumped up to an XXL, the middle *around* and the legs would be far to wide/long to fit for functionality. Speaking of the legs, in the XL the legs are too long for me by about 2.5-3 inches. I need to try them with winter boots, but I'm concerned about the bottom edges of the legs dragging on the ground. Legs are wide enough to wear over long underwear and leggings. Warm at initial try on. Will test the waterproof nature when winter sports come up.Will post an update once I've tried them with winter boots. If it seems like they'll be usable for winter, I'll post an update later on their long-term durability through a Washington State winter.

Great fit and very warm. I am a curvy person, so the side gussets are a welcoming factor. The pants are a good length too - with my ski boots on, they reach the top of the boot. With regular snow boots they are an inch off the ground. My only complaint is that when I first put them on, the hook on the front zipper flew off as I was zipping them up. I didn’t even pull hard and it just snapped! So then I couldn’t unzip them and I was stuck! My husband had to fashion a keychain ring with a pendant to give me something to pull down the zipper with. I couldn’t replace them because we were going skiing the next day, so decided to just keep them.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVEEE these snow overalls!!! I recently moved to an area where it’s snows 5 months out of the year, and my overalls arrived 2 days before first snowfall. I’ve went out in the snow already and they’ve kept me warm and dry and they’re suuuuper cute!But, for reference I’m 5’3 and i ordered a Large 12-14 REGULAR and they’re a littttle too long but when I wear them with my snow boots they fit just fine! I’m definitely going to purchase another pair.

For those who are interested,I purchased a XL I’m 5’4ft, size 17/18 in jeans, & usually wear L / XL on shirts. I haven’t used the bib but I love the quality of it. The bib did fit me a bit tight around my thighs but then again everything does. The length is perfect with my boots on.Hope this helps...

UPDATE: I DID end up sending these back. I loved the quality, however I just felt, with the broken zipper, they wouldn’t withstand over time. So..I did NOT keep them, after all.I’m keeping them! I ‘need’ them, especially with the weather here. HOWEVER..one pocket zipper ‘head’ (metal portion) literally disintegrated in my hand!! (So one pocket is ‘open’)! Other than that, these bib overalls are pretty well made. I ordered up a size, and I can slip these on over jeans and a sweater with no problem. The leg bottoms have inner cuffs with elastic, making for a snug fit around boots. They are made with decent material, and truly, other than the pocket zipper issue, not bad for the price.If the zipper hadn’t fallen apart, I’d have given these 5 stars.

I have tried ordering so many pair of snow pants - they were all either too bulkyor too big or too small - until this one. I'm tall (5'8"), and I like that the straps can lengthen or shorten to make the pants longer or shorter, and the elastic gussets allow for stretching. I'm a snowboarder, so I have to bend over to put on/take off my bindings a LOT, and I hate when my snow pants fall down or gape, or they don't stretch so it's hard to bend down, but these were perfect. I typically wear a size 12 or 14, and I ordered the XL - they're roomy, but not super big on me, so I'd say they run a tad bit small - more like a generous 14 than a 16/18. They're on the thin side, but kept me warm when snowboarding all day with temps in the mid 20's

I was slightly skeptical when ordering this bib due to the mixed reviews and inexpensive price. THESE PANTS ARE AWESOME! I went by other's suggestions and ordered an XL, though I think a L would have worked perfectly as well. For reference, I am 5'3 180lbs and typically wear a 10/12 pant. Even though I was worried they might be too long, the pants were a good length once I was in my ski boots. These pants held up SO well. I am no pro skier and took a few diggers while getting my footing and all that happened to the pants was one teeny rip near my boot. For the price I think these are completely worth it even despite them ripping. Not one moment on our trip was I cold and I only wore a simple base legging underneath. I will be using them again this December on a return ski trip. Save your money on expensive alternatives and get these pants!

Just came back from a snowboarding trip to Jay Peak, Smuggler's Notch, and Bolton Valley VT and used these pants all 3 days. Full days on the mountain and I LOVED them! The zippers were great and held my phone and wallet without any worries of loosing anything. I do recommend purchasing a size larger if you are like I and wear base layers underneath. Otherwise no complaints, I may be purchasing in a darker color as well.
