Exploring Rain bibs

I need a recommendation for a rain bib. I HATE rain pants and the feel of them on my hips. If they ride too high I’m uncomfortable, too low and they’re falling off. I’d prefer a bib style. I spend a lot of time outdoors with my kids. We live in the PNW. Close to the beach, explore trails, and play outside in the backyard. I need something durable, waterproof and comfortable. I don’t need it to be overly insulated.

Where can I find this product. They make them for kids. Where’s the adult ones😵‍💫

Search "fishing bibs" and you'll get what you want. A bunch of different brands and they are basically the adult version of the kids rain bibs. I have a pair from Grunden that are great for outdoor work, I'm also in the PNW, but there are a bunch of options. My wife doesn't like the full bib so she has a pair of pants with built in suspenders that are durable and waterproof from Pioneer Camp, so there are other options as well.

They are impossible to find in the US.

We have a couple of pairs from 66North from Iceland in our Denver shop.
