Bibs?

Anyone use leather bib overhauls when riding in cold weather? Where do you get them and what brand do you use or is the best ones to buy?

Jammin leathers in myrtle beach has them on their website. Decent folks to do business with. Cant talk the wife into getting some of their leather "clothes" for my benefit though

Not leather but I use the Carhart bid overalls and sometimes the full overalls depending on the weather and they work great.....minimal dresing up in the morning for sure.

+1 on Stone Lake bibs. Went to the website, asked my wife to help with the measurements (and the measurements for waist and inseam sounded way off). Called them, gave them the measurements as we took them, and they sent me a pair in a week - perfect fit. Rode today with it 37 outside - with 4.0 UA base layer, jeans, and bibs, then thin DryFit shirt, sweatshirt jacket, Thinsulate Ultra liner from a hunting coat, and H-D mesh jacket w/windbreaker lining, everything was warm that was covered by the bibs. I'm very happy with the Stone Lake bibs. Now need a better jacket for cold.
