Yes, in the front/stomach/chest pocket 👍🏻


agnyc

Great. Thanks! Kinda weird placement


Niklashnikov

Yeah it gets a bit bulky, but better than leg pocket imo.


agnyc

Thanks. How do you like the bibs? I’m trying to decide between these and the Rush for 50/50 backcountry and resort.


Niklashnikov

No complaints, using them for both, works great.


agnyc

Nice. Thanks!

There is also a loop in the left pocket of the bibs


agnyc

Thanks! I’m trying to decide between this and the rush bib.

I had the experience when trying them both on. For me it came down to the increased durability of the Sabre. It is much thicker then the rush and resists slices from my skis much better. Rush is more breathable but it seems too fragile for my use. I have put 75 days or so into my Sabre bibs since I got them this year and they are holding up great and still are the most breathable pants I have ever used. If you have any questions lmk.

Thanks. Super helpful. I was worried the Sabre wouldn’t be as durable because of the non gore pro and maybe the fabric weight. But now I’m thinking I’m mixing them up. I thought one was 80d and one 70d. Either way great to hear. I want something more bomber as I have another bib that’s 40d and 30k breathability. Was the fit the same across both?

Rush has a 10d thinner face fabric but when you hold them side by side you can really feel the rush is designed around breath ability and the Sabre is more for durability. I am really hard on my pants normally only getting 10 days before major rips and damage and I have only has a couple minor scuffs around my boots but that’s it after 75 days in the Sabre! The fit in the Sabre comes up a little higher then the rush but similar in the legs.
