Marmot Solitude UL Bio 1/4 Bib Pant - Women's Black, L

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I wore the Solitude UL Bio 1/4 Bib Pant on a long spring touring day that started cold and ended warm, and the full-length 2-way vents were the feature I kept coming back to. The bio-based ripstop shell is impressively light without feeling fragile, and the stretchy waist panel made every kick turn and high step feel completely unrestricted. The beacon pocket and RECCO reflector check the safety boxes without adding any bulk to a bib that already has nothing to spare.""The skin track starts before first light, and the objective is a long one, which means every unnecessary gram stays in the car. The Marmot Solitude UL Bio 1/4 Bib Pant is built around that mindset, pairing a 50D bio-based nylon ripstop shell with a 3-layer NanoPro waterproof membrane to deliver serious protection in a package light enough to forget about until you need it. The quarter bib design keeps the profile low and the mobility high, with a stretchy waist panel that moves freely through every transition, kick turn, and steep bootpack section without bunching or binding. Full-length 2-way side zippers open wide for ventilation when the effort climbs, and articulated knees track with natural movement on the descent. Internal gaiters with gripper elastic lock out snow at the boot, Cordura scuff guards protect the ankles through a full season of edge contact, and a dedicated beacon hook in the right thigh pocket keeps safety gear accessible and secure. With a RECCO reflector integrated and 100% seam-taped construction throughout, the Solitude UL Bio 1/4 Bib Pant is a complete backcountry tool built for days when the stakes are high and the weight needs to stay low."
