Backcountry tours and storm-day resort laps are where the Obermeyer Steibis Men's Shell Bib Pant earns its keep. This uninsulated, highly waterproof and breathable bib uses a stretch fabric that moves with you and a full-coverage cut that seals out snow. It is the protection-first layer for skiers who run hot and want to manage their own warmth underneath.

Why we like it:

The two-way stretch shell is what sets it apart; a hardshell bib that actually moves makes high steps and deep turns feel effortless. Going uninsulated keeps it versatile across a huge temperature range.

Features and Functions:

The Steibis Bib is built from Obermeyer's top-tier HydroBlock Elite membrane on a Seawastex nylon plain-weave fabric with two-way stretch in a three-layer construction, rated 30000mm waterproof and 30000 breathable. A stretch ripstop secondary fabric adds mobility where you need it, and the uninsulated build lets you dial warmth with your own layers.

Fit and Sizing:

A relaxed fit leaves plenty of room for baselayers and easy movement. True to size, with a bib front that vents and layers cleanly under a shell jacket.

Bottom Line:

For touring and high-output resort days in foul weather, the Steibis Bib is best at breathable, no-compromise weather protection. A go-to when you would rather sweat-manage with layers than carry built-in insulation.
