Full Description
Patagonia Pluma Pro Bibs are built for serious alpine climbers and mountain professionals who demand maximum protection and performance in extreme weather. Designed with a focus on sustainability and durability, these premium hard shell bibs feature a 3-layer, 3.8-oz 80-denier 100% recycled nylon GORE-TEX ePE Pro fabric. The material includes a woven ripstop backer and a DWR (durable water repellent) finish—free from intentionally added PFAS—making them both eco-conscious and exceptionally rugged. Certified as bluesign approved and made in a Fair Trade Certified factory in Vietnam, the Pluma Pro Bibs deliver trustworthy waterproof and breathable protection without compromising on environmental responsibility. Ideal for alpine ascents and technical climbs, they offer serious weather resistance and freedom of movement for long days in the high mountains.
GORE-TEX is now a totally PFC free waterproof membrane designed by Gore to be more sustainable and cut out harmful long chain 'forever chemicals' found in normal PTFE waterproof membranes. The ePE membrane is a thinner than older GORE-TEX and GORE-TEX PRO, which results in a softer and more supple feel. It doesn't have the same stiff 'cardboardy' feel as older Gore membranes. The biggest performance difference you are most likely to notice is the DWR treatment. Unfortunately flurocarbons are some of the best, most hydrophobic chemicals out there. Getting rid of them does hit performance so you will notice that the nice 'beading' effect disappears quite quickly. Don't worry your GORE-TEX jacket is still waterproof, but to maintain the beading effect you will need to top up the DWR more regularly.
These bibs come equipped with a thoughtfully engineered feature set to support high-exertion, all-day missions. Mid-height coverage combines with stretchy, adjustable suspenders for a secure fit and breathable comfort. Full-length, waterproof side zips allow for easy layering adjustments and access, even with a harness or pack. The articulated knees and hips enhance mobility for both climbing and skiing, while three secure pockets—including a chest bib pocket and watertight thigh pockets—provide ample storage. Reinforced scuff guards and snow gaiters keep out debris and snow, while a concealed RECCO reflector aids in emergency searchability (please note that RECCO is no replacement for a proper transceiver). With a 32" inseam and a regular fit that reduces bulk, the Pluma Pro Bibs are the ultimate alpine shell for demanding environments.
