Forget having to choose between being green and staying dry. You can feel good, look good, and stay outside longer with the all-new TREW TREWth PRIMO Bibs.
Built to Last
The TREW Gear Trewth Bibs are built tough! After 14 years of R&D, TREW released the new PRIMO fabric, made of 100% recycled nylon. This creates a very durable and comfortable feeling fabric, with 20k waterproof and 20k breathability- top notch specs. During long days of storm skiing in deep powder this fabric stays dry!
TREW being a Pacific Northwest company makes great gear for skiing and riding in really wet conditions thanks to the bibs and jackets being seam taped similar to wetsuit construction for surfing.
TREW Trewth Bibs Pockets
Boasting 7 pockets, the TREWth Primo Bibs are a neat-freak’s dream come true! Keep your beacon, snacks, and all your other odds and ends organized perfectly. Dual side zipper vents allow for easy entry and plenty of ventilation for hiking. Built in RECCO locator adds one more piece of safety.
Fit
The fit of the TREWth Primo Bibs is generous relaxed fit. Normally, as a 6 foot tall, 160 lb. person, I fit in most brands’ size Large ski pants, but with this TREW cut, I fit comfortably in a Men’s Medium Regular size, if the suspenders are fully extended. They are not too small or restrictive, plenty of room for layering, and still have a flow to them.
Mind you, if you’re looking for a steezier fit, then go with your normal size, but for me, the medium works fine for both in-bounds and touring. The legs are comfortable for moving around, without having a ton of extra fabric to be cumbersome during hikes and skins, or get caught-up on crampons.
TREW Trewth Bibs Durability
Speaking of sharp edges, these bibs have a burly “super fabric” around the cuffs and kick patches. Say goodbye to small cuts from your ski edges! The PRIMO fabric of the TREWth Primo Bibs itself has a burly, cut resistant quality to them for maximum durability.
