hunting bibs

Re: hunting bibs
Just got my bibs and tried them on today. Let me tell you they look like they can take a beating. I will be returning them though. They are way too short, I bought the 34" inseam. Is there any other longer lengths? I want something that is waterproof. My buddy and myself ordered them and he is about 4" taller than me, no chance of them fitting him.
Re: hunting bibs
Did you try adjusting the shoulder galas down a little bit? Normally about two inches shorter than your normal inseam is about right. Did you put your regular hunting clothes and boots on and see where they hit? lengthen the galas to where the leg end where you like on the boot, then see how low the crotch rides. Your a pretty big boy so if it shortens your stride, you'll need more length. The main thing to a salesman and us little fellers is keeping you big boys happy... 

Re: hunting bibs
I ended up going on Mulehuntingclothes.com and getting the super bibs as they call them. Man they are awesome, nothing goes threw them, they are waterproof and briar proof. Best bibs I have ever owned, I had owned a pair of the Dans bibs and there is no comparison. Mule by far is alot better
Re: hunting bibs
I'd try a pair of mules if I ever wear out my wicks but right now the only chance of it happening is if my belly keeps getting bigger and I out grow them. Come on Turkey day, daddy needs a new pair of bibs... 

Re: hunting bibs
I should explain a little better. The length is fine, but the crotch rides HARD front and back. So bad that it makes me talk in a little bit high er pitch. Will take a loook @ Mules. BTW my buddy took my size and loves them. I am scared to order a bigger size and them not fitting and not being able to return them.

Re: hunting bibs
Well i got a pair of the Dan's High and Dry bibs and on our big hunt today everyone was asking me where i got them and how much they wanted a pair cause i breezed through the briar's while they was dragging through them. Plus i was dry as a bone when we came out this eve and and the rest was socked and picking the beggar lice off them while i was ready to head out.Ha
So get ready for some orders guy's
Oh by the way i got to brag a little, but my hounds actually caught a rabbit today with witness to prove. It was the first for any of my pot lickers but it sure give the boy's a lot to talk about after the hunt. Beside the fried rabbit, gravy, biscuits,and fried tators. Now that hard to beat.

Re: hunting bibs
Thanks Chip we had a blast, i maybe given you a call on a couple more pairs for my boy's and give me a holler when them collars come in i think i will be getting a couple more. Mine came in yesterday but the guy who was suppose to come in didn't show so they told the guard that they would drop them back by Monday around noon.
But anyway we tried and the hunt went really well, i think i got a hunt next week a guy called me wanting me to take him on his private property next weekend cause one of the guy's we hunted with told him what a blast we had with solid races with very few breakdowns.
So give me a yell when they get in and i will decide on the bibs then.
Thanks
