Filson wool bibs have kept outdoorsmen warm in freezing conditions for three decades. The thick 24-oz. wool is made from only the longest, strongest fleece fibers, with no synthetics blended in. Tightly spun yarns are woven into a dense twill that resists water and wear, while remaining highly breathable. Our Mackinaw Wool can absorb up to 30% of its weight in water without feeling damp or clammy, and will maintain its insulating power even when wet.
For high-exertion action in frigid weather, there is no better layer. One Filson employee uses Mackinaw Wool Bibs extensively for backcountry snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. Another uses them for late-season high-altitude elk hunting. The versatility of Mackinaw Wool for cold-weather field use is simply unmatched.
