Looking for a set of hardshell bibs for ice climbing and (mostly resort) skiing. I’m 6’2” 175lbs (generally M fits from most brands). I’ve got a couple of pairs of softshells and looking for something to take on wetter weather, and get back into skiing now that I’m living somewhere it’s possible.

Some nice-to-haves are:

• Full length side zips
• Crampon reinforced patches
• Drop-seat
• Lots of pockets
• Black

I’ve been looking at:

• Arc’teryx beta SV (discontinued, bummer)
• Arc’teryx alpha SV (unsure on ski boot fit)
• Mountain Hardwear Routefinder
• Norrona trollveggen pants + zip on bib (I have these softshells, it’s a cool system)
• Patagonia dual aspect
• OR Archangel
• Mammut Haldigrat

Let me know what you’ve got and are willing to part with, or if you have any advice on what I should look for!
