I want to buy a pair of soft shell bibs for ice climbing/mountaineering as I don't like to wear typical soft shell pants under my harness. Anyone know if something like that exists????

I'm curious, too. I have some myself, but they were custom made for caving. Nice, soft, stretchy spandura.

Call Arcteryx and tell them to start making the Salopetts again.

Salopettes........that is pretty much what I'm looking for.
