The Grundens Transmit X Insulated Bib continues the success of one of Grundéns' most important products with a winter version: an insulated fishing bib. The Transmit X Insulated is designed for cold-season fishing, not only for winter but also for late autumn and early winter. The bib is an excellent choice for autumn outings on trout waters, for winter boat fishing at sea and for the winter ice, but it is equally functional for anyone who spends long days outdoors in cold and wet conditions. The cold finds the legs first – when you kneel by the gunwale, sit on a cold bench or run into a wet wind. The outer shell of the bib is a 2L construction built for professional use. The waterproof and windproof shell keeps rain, spray, wet snow and wind on the outside, and the quilted lining makes the construction pleasant to wear. The high bib front protects a wider area than ordinary trousers and helps keep the lower back and midsection covered when bending over and moving. The insulation is 80 grams of G-LOFT® Eco Plus. An important property of the synthetic G-LOFT® insulation in fishing is that it retains its insulating capacity even when damp. This tolerance for moisture is particularly useful in long use, where moisture can build up inside the garment as a result of activity and temperature changes. According to the manufacturer, the construction is designed for cold conditions down to approximately -20 °C. Actual warmth, however, also depends on base layers, activity level, wind and the wearer. The cut is shaped for the mobility needed in fishing and in winter conditions. In these trousers it is easy to crouch, kneel, get back up and move around in the boat or on the ice without the insulation making the construction unnecessarily stiff. Integrated OrthoLite® knee pads cushion hard surfaces when kneeling, for example on the ice, on the deck of a boat or while handling fish. Zippers at the leg cuffs make the trousers easier to put on and take off with heavy fishing shoes or winter boots. In practice this is a significant advantage in the cold, as footwear does not have to be removed every time the trousers are changed. The thigh pocket for pliers keeps the pliers within easy reach, and daisy chain attachment loops provide places for other tools needed in fishing. The Transmit X Insulated Bib combines insulation, waterproof weather protection and details designed for fishing in the same package. It is intended for the angler whose season does not end with the first frosts. Together with the Transmit X Insulated Jacket it forms a warm and mobile fishing outfit from late autumn to the winter ice.
