Patagonia Men's Dual Aspect Bibs for Alpine Climbing
3.7/5
March 11, 2022
Not adjustable
Positives:
Light weight
Awesome movement for hard shell
Negatives:
Cant adjust the bibs. Trying to stretch them so they arent so snug in the crotch
Fly zipper is so ugly! Should have a flap
Still cant believe they dont adjust at the bib level
Only one pocket
Needs better vent system
Over all a great concept, just needs a little refinement.

Vent Zippers
You need vent zippers on the inside thighs. Im kind of shocked you dont include them.
63 175lbs. Mediums fit well around, but were much too short. Larges feel a bit too large around, and are still a still a tad short. Would loved for the bib to be adjustable.
Finding lightweight, well fitting pants for snow/ice climbing and skiing is tricky, but Patagonia absolutely nailed it with the Dual Aspects. I was a really big fan of the Galvanized pants, and was very bummed to see them not be renewed for this season, but the Dual Aspects are an excellent, and more environmentally sustainable replacement. These a... Read Morere bar none, the best fitting pants for ice/alpine climbing I have found: no extraneous baggy material to snag on crampons (no more rubber bands around my calves and ankles!), light, breathable and protective. The bibs work very well in keeping everything in place as well, and there are zippers exactly where you want them. Though they lack some of the stretch that the galvanized pants had, I didn't miss it at all thanks the perfect fit (for me). I would not hesitate to recommend these for anyone looking for a light and fast hardshell pant!
Fitting notes: I am 5'11'' and around 155 lbs.
These are very protective, yet light and minimal. With enough options for modification. The mesh bibs are comfortable. However, the zippers are finicky especially when snow and ice is building up on the outside. The fly zipper broke second time I used it. Major bummer. What modern piece of clothing/gear doesnt have a weak zipper though?
