The 9 Best Women's Snowboard Bibs of 2022-2023
By: Sarah Ziffer: Women's & Kid's Techwear Buyer | November 10, 2022
Once you try bibs you may never go back to snow pants again. They provide functional performance while preventing any snow from getting in your pants no matter how many plummets you may take on the hill. Women’s snowboard bibs are designed for women with features that allow you to have an easy bio break without having your straps lay on the floor. They also have venting features, insulation, and shell styles to keep you comfortable at any temperature.
New This Year:
This season offerings like the Volcom Crescent bib and the Burton Reserve bib are perfect for weekend warriors all the way to the riders that live at their home mountain. If that is not enough and you need something a little more durable, 686 and Burton offer GORE-TEX bib options that increase the waterproofing and breathability features if you plan on charging the mountain a little harder than the average. Let's face it, finding the best snowboard bibs involve more than just features but fit as well. The Airblaster Every Body bib was created to fit all body types that want to get out on the mountain because feeling good is just as important as function.
Volcom Creston 3D Stretch

The Volcom Creston 3D Stretch Bib Pants provide an industrial look and feel with 15K/15K waterproof breathability, not to mention just enough insulation in the seat and thighs to ensure you stay warm and comfortable on the chair and as you strap in at the top. The Creston bib pants will only enhance your mobility on the hill while keeping the snow out.

Sarah Ziffer
Growing up in Florida, I missed out on the chance to get involved in snow sports. Tired of the heat, and seeking out the mountains, I moved to Seattle to start a new adventure. A few years after moving to WA I fulfilled my dream of learning to snowboard and immediately fell in love with it. After just one time out on a friend’s board I was hooked. I outfitted myself from head to toe with gear from evo, and got a season pass at Snoqualmie.
I quickly realized that snowboarding inspired me to live a lifestyle centered around the outdoors. I left my job at a fashion company to come and work for evo and become immersed in the culture and experiences that make the snowboarding community so vibrant. I have been at evo since 2017, am currently the women's and kids' techwear buyer, and enjoy learning and experiencing everything this incredible community has to offer.
