Bibbies or coveralls? #8367803 03/19/25 07:44 AM 03/19/25 07:44 AM

I now wear nylon bibbies from NiteLite that are lightweight and comfortable. Heavy boots suck but I haven't found a lightweight boot that is warm. Kangaroo leather boots are the lightest I've found yet but still heavy. Life ain't supposed to be easy.

Way more comfortable on my scars. I dont like them though in warmer weather not sure how them southern guys do that. Just last week when warmed I got my jeans t-shirt back on. Got to warm in the red bibs. I can't wear a belt so well anymore across my front. So I have this funky belt that basically just goes around my back. Also use the suspenders that are called Hikers Hidden. Got make a system that's comfortable and works for you. Mac "Never Forget Which Way Is Up"

Same X2.......Carhart and Key......."the aristocrat of overalls". And a Carhart coat over the bigs. Winter survival gear. I keep thinking there ought to be a way to hide a pocket somewhere in a pair of bibs in which a guy could slip in a pistol. Let the shoulder straps carry the weight.
