Helly Hansen and North Face gear recommendations

Thinking about the Fly Low roxy bibs... Anyone have experience with those?
Yes I know a bit of a thread derail as not TNF or HH.

lol, no worries, I was thinking I should just start a "bibs" thread! I haven't tried any of the other Flylow bibs but will give a report on the Moxie's once I get them!

I was also looking at the "Trew" line....but wasn't sold on the colors for this season.

I actually wound up using my HH discount code for Lifa Merino wool for my daughter and I got a new raincoat for next year, didn't really need anything else!

The Foxy bib is a “flattering” fit, whereas the Moxie is a relaxed fit. I normally wear a medium bottom, and found the Foxy to be too snug in the hips and thighs. The large fit, but were about 6 inches too long for me. I haven’t actually tried on the Moxie, but it’s supposed to be more roomy.

That's why I ordered the Moxie, as someone with more "athletic" thighs, I figured the Foxy would be a problem...however, I think the Foxy has "short" lengths from what I saw on their website? I always thought it was silly that there wasn't length differences for the women's sizing in terms of some bibs and pants. Maybe @ski diva should start up a clothing line!

Hmm well I'm definitely on the petite side but am quite long waisted (ugh) so one piece things can be weird on me.

There is one, actually. @ski diva started one a few weeks ago. I forget the thread title though.

Does anyone know how Helly Hansen fits in comparison to North Face tops? The gift options from my company this holiday season include some Helly Hansen jackets, but I’ve never tried the brand on. I’m usually a small in jackets, but this heavily depends on how the shoulders and arm length fit as I have wide shoulders and long arms for my height. North face jackets fit me great in a small.

I have a HH Powderqueen 2.0 jacket and I love it if you want to get an extra jacket. Its perfect with a base layer for normal days and I wear an insulated vest underneath on cold days. Great jacket

I bought (and have put up for sale) the HH Snowstar jacket and think the medium in this model runs slightly large, but in a good way. I’m not into layering, so if someone likes to wear thick or multiple layers and maybe a vest, this particular HH design would accommodate.

I love the color of the one you posted! I'm like you with not being one for large layers though, so I'm usually a small as well.

Thanks. I agree the color is amazing. I ordered the same color jacket in my correct size because it’s just that pretty. Not bubble gum pink, not neon, it’s just right!
