Summary

The Sentinel Full Bib is a high-performance backcountry ski pant built with a Gore-Tex three-layer shell that delivers top-tier waterproofing and breathability. The bib design, versatile venting, and rugged durability make it ideal for long backcountry days, though it’s expensive and not as warm as insulated options or ideal for lift-served resort use.

Pros

+Highly waterproof (GORE-TEX) with long-lasting durability
+Excellent ventilation via outer thigh vents and two-way zippers
+Bib design provides warmth and full torso protection while remaining mobile
+Lightweight yet weatherproof with durable seams and zippers
+Clever pockets and features (two zippered chest pockets, large hand/cargo pockets, Recco reflector)
+Versatile venting system and easy layering compatibility

Cons

-Expensive compared to non-bib options
-Uninsulated; not as warm as insulated pants
-Not the top pick for resort/lift-served skiing
