Serious bibs for serious ski tours. The APEX Salopettes take inspiration from our 1992 MEC Pinnacle Salopettes, with a modern fit and technology that combines protection and breathability. The Toray membrane in the chest is almost 50% more breathable than standard 3-layer laminates, so you won't overheat on the uptrack but you're covered if you tumble. The bottom is windproof, waterproof Pertex Shield. Two-way waterproof zippers run from the bib to below the knee, allowing ventilation and a quick exit when nature calls.
