Arctix Essential Insulated Overalls 36 38W Reviews Summary

Warmth and Insulation

Pros:

• "These kept him dry and warm (with a jacket) and the bands on the ankles kept heavy snow here in our area out of his boots."
• "This thing is great because it keeps me extra warm when I’m cruising around on my ebike!"
• "Light & warm I work on a forklift, have to get on & off it's tough on my knees so the suit that the company provided it's heavy this one is super light, I love the style too."
• "This stuff really keeps me warm every morning walking to my workplace even in blizzard conditions."
• "Insulation was good kept me rather comfortable, in Cold weather."
• "They do very well in weather, not sub-zero weather, but 24 degrees, I was warm."
• "These are warm. I'm not a skier... but I have to go outside and shovel snow enough and I hate being cold."

Cons:

• "Lastly they aren't waterproof."
• "The only bad thing is these are not waterproof. They might be slightly water resistant to snow but if you get any water on it you will get wet underneath it."
• "Sitting in the snow for 5 minutes with this you will start to feel cold at your bottom."
• "Although I feel in colder temps they may not be the warmest."
• "These are not very warm. You will need to thermal up very well if you're heading into cold weather."
• "Not as thick or as warm as I was hoping. Also a little bit tighter in the legs than others i have worn in the past."
• "They do not, however, vent moisture."

Fit and Comfort

Pros:

• "Nice and warm, with plenty of pockets, and a nice draw string on the cuffs."
• "The overalls are easy to get in and out of, and the suspender style straps function really well."
• "The bib is great and really warm, fit everywhere else and adjustable, but the crotch and butt area is really tight."
• "I'm 6 ft and 210 lbs and these fit me perfectly."
• "I’m 5’6 and weight 157. This suit fits me great! It’s a little bit too wide around the hips but I can just add more layers on- I gather have it big then small. It’s also a bit long, but I don’t mind it."
• "The fit is perfect and they are incredibly warm."
• "I am 6' tall and about 260 and the 2xl size worked good for me."

Cons:

• "I'm a big guy with thick legs so finding snow gear can be tough. The first set I ordered fit but the legs were not quite large enough so they were too restrictive."
• "The crotch on the inside is torn, the pocket has unraveled and my phone was at my foot."
• "Even though they have zippers for your boots, you cannot put these on with boots on. Really no point for the zippers."
• "The crotch on the inside is torn."
• "The inseam is extremely off. I bought 3 in Above my normal inseam and I can't even sit down."
• "The sizing in this is WAY off."
• "For my size they fit nice but longer legs might be too tight."

Durability and Quality

Pros:

• "The material is comfortable, tough, water resistant and very warm!"
• "They have good sized zipper pockets and an extra panel on the inside ankles to help with the scuffing together and wearing out right there."
• "This suit is amazing, it's not silky like most it has a very good made material."
• "So far it has no tears, no stains, and no zipper issues."
• "They are pretty tough. I am very surprised but in all we've been doing, I still haven't ripped them."
• "I had the pants for about 5 years so they do last."
• "Material seems to be built like a tank."

Cons:

• "My son got all suited up for the first ran of the season. Zipper split and won't even stay closed."
• "However, the first time I wore them, they ripped at the crotch in the first hour."
• "The sticker marking the size is HORRIBLE. It leaves so much residue on the pants and it doesn't wipe off."
• "First day skiing we stop for lunch about 4 hours in. I take my jacket off and notice that 1 strap completely detached from the back of the bib."
• "Left side pocket ripped when putting the suit on."
• "The plastic little hook that connects the strap to the pant was missing. It must have broken off or something."
• "The stitching is quite poor quality and the crotch of the pants ripped within an hour on the slopes."
