Outperforms Arc'teryx

As a life-long skier in very cold conditions and die-hard fan of Arc'teryx, I was a little hesitant to try Berengia. Wow, I was instantly blown away. I don't know how a fabric can be both more breathable and warmer, but it is. It's also more comfortable and has more practical design elements (where pockets and zippers are located) to contain more warmth when you need it, and let it out when you don't. If you're a serious skier looking for high-performance clothing, this is your brand. I'm 5'6" 130 lbs, I got the XS pant and S coat. both are plenty spacious for underlayers.

Bib-a-lucious!

Like the jacket, these bibs hit all the marks. I’ve worn bibs before and was reluctant to go back to them because I found them too hot while touring and hard to peel layers when needed. Beringia has figured it out! Including a total zip off of the bib. The waist zipper is great for ease of access when needing to pee and a standard front zip if standing is your thing; The back of the bibs are mesh to help prevent overheating/sweating with a pack on; I love the two chest pockets - one Velcro (super easy to access phone) and the other zippered for more secured storage. Two pockets on the thigh for transceiver and snacks, and great vent zippers. I telemark and I love the articulated knees with a bit of stretch in them! All that and they are incredibly light weight! With the jacket, it’s an awesome tour set up. I wear a 4 or 6 and went with the small. The Dark Navy is nearly black. I got the jacket in Aziki and the color combo is beautiful. It is definitely an “investment” at the price point but I can tell this set up will last me a number of seasons.

Best bibs

Paired with the St. Elias Jacket 2.0, this is the best shell system I've ever owned. It is both comfortable and functional, breathable for hiking, and protects me from the elements. I love the quick-access velcro phone pocket, chest zip pocket for my cash/chapstick, and beacon pocket. The waist zip is also easy and functional so I can take the pants on & off without taking all my upper layers off : ) The shoulder straps are soft and comfortable with my backpack too. I'm 5'4", 130lbs, and wear a small, which gives me enough space to layer underneath without being too big. I've been getting loads of complements on the entire kit too !

Breathable and Comfortable Ski Bibs - Recommended

I had the privilege to test the bibs out before their launch this fall. I'm an avid skier/boarder (50+ days) and wore these the entire season, from Nov to May. I'm impressed with the overall function and fit, the breathability & stretch of the NeoShell fabric was incredible, even with many layers on cold days, hiking and skitouring I never got overly hot and sweaty - a noticeable difference.
The pants never tore from ski edges (as other ski pants have done quickly in the past). I have worn and tested most major brands, usually by the end of the season I have broken snaps and zips, however, I've had no failures on any fasteners to date. Shoulder straps are well positioned and soft under a pack. The chest pocket holds my cell phone with easy velcro access (I take a lot of pictures), the other zippered chest pocket is my safe go to pocket for cash.
The two thigh pockets are well positioned and practical, hold the transceiver well within fast reach - and keep the transceiver far enough apart from the cell phone.
Thigh zippered vents are great for easy venting on hikes and tours; they align well with the Altai insulated short vents (I wore them also during dec-mar everyday on the ski hill).
The waist zipper works well and smoothly!
I'm 5'8" 135lbs, and can wear a S in both jacket and the bib for general fit, but the M is better for the pant leg and the sleeve length for me. I also got a good amount of compliments on the look/fit on the whole outfit, which is always great :)
