Only skied in them 2 days so far, but they were amazing. I run warm and they are a bit thinner than my previous ski pants, so that was awesome. Pocket locations are convenient and well thought out, and I think the pockets that are on the chest portion of the bib are amazing. Side vents are great too. I have zero complaints at this point. Just hoping they hold up for along time!!!
Very good- workers at store really accommodating - bibs are very comfortable
I have worked in the ski industry for over a decade now and I can honestly say that these are the best bibs that I have ever used! This is my first season wearing Strafe and I have been beyond impressed with their product, i'm honestly upset with myself that it took me so long to try their stuff! The waterproofing is excellent, and given how well they repel water, they are shockingly soft and quite (no annoying crinkle sounds when moving in them, unlike my Arcteryx bibs...) The range of motion is incredible and I love how there is no restriction at all in my movement while skiing. Also, the number of pockets and their position is perfect, the shoulder straps are super comfy, and I really love the side vents for when my legs get a little too warm! Given the attention to detail and all of the features of these bibs, you can really tell that they were designed by people who are actually out there using the product and know what skiers need and want in a good pair of bibs. Also, their customer service is top notch, Jacob was super helpful in advising me on my order and getting it processed! He was really quick to respond to me and made the order process a breeze. I will definitely be getting more product from them in the future and have been recommending them to everyone who has come into my ski shop looking for quality outerwear. Sizing wise, I am 6 ft, ~150lbs (kinda lanky) and I got the mediums, and they fit perfectly. They give me plenty of room to layer since I usually wear insulated knickers and a puffy under the bibs.
For years I always had to replace my ski pants after one season because the boot cuffs would develop large holes in them. This would sometimes result in my ski brake getting caught in them and causing me to fall. That was until I got the Strafe Nomads. I have yet to have a pair of the Nomads develop a hole in the boot cuff. These pants are my absolute favorite. I also really enjoy the interior pocket that is inside the bib and pants pockets. This allows the smaller items in my pocket to not bounce around quite as much.
Well designed. They are a bit lighter (less burly) than others I have skied in. Really enjoyed them so far
