Salopette Rush Homme

Been wearing these pants day in and day out skiing so far this winter. Coming from soft-shells, I was pleasantly surprised at the lightness of these pants. I appreciate that they don't insulate, so I can wear a different base layer depending on the temperature. I love the bib material, and the pocket on the bib is perfect for a beacon and keeps it under other layers and on the torso. I do find these a bit too tight in the butt and thighs, as I prefer a baggier fit that doesn't resist my leg movements, especially during steep skinning (coming from someone with meaty thighs).

Best bibs on the market. With a fantastic fit, premium materials, outstanding design, and perfect weight, this product truly stands out. The attention to detail is remarkable, but a couple of small tweaks could make it flawless: a dedicated beacon pocket and a larger right thigh pocket for gloves or a toque without compromising mobility. Overall, it's an exceptional piece with minor opportunities for improvement. Well done, Arc'teryx!

I wasn’t sure I’d like a bib, but I absolutely love it! Somehow, my ski pants always used to come unbuttoned and slip down, but the bib has completely solved that problem. Plus, the design makes it super easy to take a bathroom break without having to remove your jacket—a total game-changer! Ladies, another bonus: the thoughtful design provides great coverage when nature calls. On top of all that, these bibs are lightweight and comfortable, making them my go to choice for long days on the mountain.

I've been using this pant as my main Backcountry Guiding and recreating pant now since it's Birth. I like this pant. There are many ideal features of it. I'd say the best Backcountry Ski Pant on the Market. The low highly breathable bib with suspenders works so well holding the pants up that you don't notice them hanging around the waist at all. The pockets in the bib are ideal for Beacon placement. Many people skiing in the Backcountry are not using Beacon Harnesses these days. The Pant leg pocket is the worst place to put a Beacon, and probably the most used. It's very exposed to damage from hitting a tree in an avalanche, along with getting ripped off the leg. The Rush Bib Pocket is nice and protected, above the pack waist belt and in a warm and protected spot, helps battery life. Thigh pockets and venting are in ideal locations and work very well. And are very easy to operate with gloves on. I just started using the Gaiter slots for the power strap to run through. It's a crafty idea, removes the hassle of moving the cuff on and off the top of the boot in Transitions, Can't believe I waited this long. The updated scuff patches have been excellent through my last prs of pants as well as my new ones. The Pro Shell material is on the light side, which I do like to keep the weight of the pant down. I personally have not had any issues with the outer face being too fragile and easy to tear, and I do a lot of tree skiing. The only thing that I would change with these pants is the Crotch Rise. When breaking trail/skiing up hill, I and several others, feel that there is too much pull on the thighs and through the crotch area. Several others have also mentioned this to me. I think that what happens is that when you put your pack on and cinch up the waist belt, that actions pulls the pant in and up a bit, creating more tension through the Crotch zone. I need to pull my pants down a bit to make this work and also lengthen the suspenders. I've seen this mentioned on the Arcteryx Reviews of the pant for the last couple of years, seems like it needs to be dealt with. Just a slight adjustment to the fit of the crotch rise. I wear a size large, 5'10", 175lbs, Large is ideal for me. No issues with The Sabre pant with this issue, but then they are not a bib, so don't get pulled in with a waist belt. If this was a non issue I'd give the pant and easy 5/5.
