The Ultimate Backcountry Touring Shell Bibs
The Skytour AscentShell™ Bibs stand out as the ultimate backcountry touring bibs, offering maximum breathability, weather protection, and freedom of movement.
Designed with a hybrid-mapped construction, these bibs feature a bluesign® approved softshell bib upper for unrestricted movement and a fully waterproof AscentShell™ Air 3L lower for comfort and protection in challenging conditions. Adjustable suspenders and a full center front zip ensure a precision fit and keep snow away from mid-layers and skin, while the left-side zip bib pocket with avalanche beacon clip keeps the most critical gear close by. The right-side top-entry stash bib pocket and large side-set cargo pockets provide ample storage for essentials. Zippered outer thigh vents with YKK® Aquaguard® zips allow for quick temperature regulation, and a stretch mesh internal gaiter with a power strap slot keeps snow out of boots. The reinforced scuff guard resists abrasion from crampons and ski edges, while the gusseted crotch and articulated knees support durability and mobility.
Fully seam-taped and ultra-breathable, the Ascentshell™ Bibs are built to endure demanding alpine conditions while providing the movement-mirroring stretch that backcountry users demand.
