Burton Women's Avalon 2L Bib Pants
Good comfortable stretching fitting in the places that need it most to allow for all-day comfort. A classic fitting bib from Burton with a built-in Taffeta lining that keeps you warm when you're cold and cool when you're hot. The lining adjusts on its own by allowing moisture level fluctuations. Zippered thigh venting to allow for heat release when needed.

Great for warmth and staying dry! I also find bibs to be more comfortable than pants since they don't have to be cinched around your waist.

Lots of pockets found throughout this design which I'm a big fan of for stashing purposes, a sweet chimney venting system is found on this one so you never run too hot, and the articulated knees plus the reinforced kickpatches and hem make for one durable outer shell that's a no-brainer pickup right now!
