Customer Reviews The North Face Freedom Insulated Bib

Loved my new pants! They kept me perfectly warm and dry. I may have been able to go down a size, as I still wish they were a bit more fitted, but that might be a user error thing!

I have been going sledding with our daughter and normally we end up being the cold ones. These snow pants are very warm and flexible that I don't mind staying on the hill a little longer to spend time with our daughter!

great! hard to clean, a bit hard to use when it comes to toilet time. but overall super warm

Excellent, keep, me so warm I barely need mid-layers, or if I'm using a mid-layer, I won't necessarily wear a jacket. got dirty though and its difficult to clean and the no drop butt for easy peeing is the only reason I cant give it a full 5 stars.

Great construction. Love all the pockets. Not as warm as I would have liked.

Snowboarder and not having to worry about regular snowpants when snow gets inside. True to fit and very comfortable.

Love these bib overalls! So well made, size as expected. A number of pockets for keeping things and in just the right places. Really well made.

purchased for an upcoming a ski trip. The fit is comfortable to move in and easy to adjust with wide elastic straps on the bib. My daughter is 5'4" and they are still a little bit long on her, but they should still work well. If you are on the taller side you will appreciate the extra length.

Adorable. Great fit and perfect for skiing.

The fit is great, lightweight. I love all the pockets. I wore these to the pro football game in Kansas City on Christmas Eve during the Arctic Bomb Cyclone with negative windy "feels like" temps yet they kept me warm and comfortable for the 4+ hours I was out there. I struggle to give them 5 stars simply because of the straps. I've never owned bibs that didn't have the quick release buckles. Made it time consuming and difficult to go to the ladies room :). I'm going to have a seamstress add the buckles, then I'll really love them!

Great fit

Got a size large, short size, about 135lbs, 5"1. I was between the medium and large but wanted them to be a little baggy so I was comfortable wearing an extra layer under for snowboarding.. the short length was also perfect for my height.

The color is amazing! Such a nice match to many other colors from NorthFace. Ready to board and not worry about snow with these bibs.

Snowboarding must! Perfect for avoiding snow going up the jacket on falls. Color is as shown as well

I am a patroller on my mountain. North Face clothing stands up to the elements and keeps me warm and dry. These bibs are great.

Comfortable and warm. Roomy enough so that I can move around.; but sleek enough to not look or feel bulky.

NICE

Good pants

Always love these pants and they hold up well! True to size

So… huh. After reading other reviews, I thought this was FINALLY going to be the pair of (insulated) snowpants that fit my “curvy”-type body, but they’re not. So much for thinking bibs instead of pants would be the ticket! Granted, I’m looking for snowpants to keep me dry and extra-warm while I shovel and snow-blow (in the arctic hellscape known as MN), but the primary market for snowpants are people who ski, snowboard, or maybe snowshoe. All of these are leg-intensive activities, and one would expect persons who participate regularly to have nontrivial thigh muscles. Why, then, is every pair of snowpants I try on — this one included — so tight in the thighs? For context, I’m 5’7.5” and weigh 133 lbs. I have a narrow waist, average hipbones, & rounder thighs, but my proportions are far from anatomically remarkable. I ordered size Small, & the fit is like this: I’ve got an abundance of room in the waist/torso (even with a t-shirt, light sweater, & jeans underneath); the area around my actual hipbones is just about right; & the low seat / upper thigh area is TIGHT. I can still walk, but I can feel pulling & pressure with any decent stride length; while I can still squat, I wouldn’t call it comfortable. If you are shaped like a string bean or an apple, these will probably fit great. If you’re shaped more like an avocado or a butternut squash, however, you’re likely SOL.

Will definitely buy again! Surprisingly warm & much lighter than duck canvas, excellent mobility but with over your head side zipper on top & no leg zippers, getting out of them could be frustrating.

I really liked these. I just needed a bit more room. so returned to go up a size.

Very good material, did not get soaked in the snow storm, overall a good item. The zippers get stuck sometimes.

just snowboarded with them in 18 degree weather. They were so warm and kept me dry! The only complaint I have is that they're a little annoying to take on and off when going to the bathroom

Love the overall design. Fit is a bit off. I should wear a small by the chart and past TNF pants. Those were tight enough, I wanted to avoid a blowout and sized up. No buckle release on either shoulder. Had to extend the adjustment all the way out on the elastic to get it over my head plus take off helmet, mid layers to pee. Big problem for instructor with short breaks. Just modified today by inserting a 1.5" "G-hook to the strap on the zipper side. Product needs that modification IMHO.
