  • The bibs for the ladies is the same set up 😂 you definitely need to undo your whole set up. For any ladies looking into their bibs! I love them tho highly recommend!
  • Truly EXCELLENT review. You hit every single question I had with zero extraneous blabber. Thank you! Watching review videos can be an absolute chore. Since I’m tasked with replacing all my gear, I’ve been doing this for a week solid, dreading each review and fast forwarding through so much unnecessary content. You made it so easy. Big … (no) HUGE fan. Can’t thank you enough.
  • @justinbayola
    You put these suits through their paces pretty well over the last year. Awesome review. Can't wait to see you put them to work again this season.
  • @jacobovermyer
    Just snagged a kit. I was sold on the look and affordability. Appreciate the honest review. I'm stoked to try it myself!
  • @mimibae_xo
    Lucas! 😍 Wow, it's that time of the year again where you're gonna be dishing out amazing winter content! 🏂🏔 Hope life is treating you well! 🙏💙 Keep up the amazing content like always! ☺💛✨
  • @NickKreider
    Love the vids man! Watched every skiing vid and can’t wait for the great ones to come this season! You should keep doing review videos!
  • @Mr_Dusty
    Montec gear is the best valued, best fitting and stylish ski gear available in my personal opinion and then there is the value, where nothing compares. I'm a gear snob, I have so many different coats and get multiple new coats every season. If I compare my $250 Montec jacket to my $800 North Face Brigandine jacket, I'd pick the Montec jacket all day long, facts. Montec is doing an incredible job. We all need to support companies like Montec as much as we can, fantastic gear at incredible value, we need more companies like this.

    Just got a Montec Doom jacket and goggles. They both feel really well made. Great materials and construction. Love the looks too.
  • TL;DR - I don’t think Montec is necessarily a high end brand but they provide above average products for a below average price. I do recommend them for any average resort skier like myself. I think it’s hard to beat the value you get for the price of the gear. If you’re a hardcore backcountry skier or a professional athlete, I don’t think this is necessarily the gear for you.
  • @arekay402
    Great review! not many people have done montec reviews so this is amazing
  • @MaxRank
    I own both pants and bibs. The new bibs have a double zipper so no longer do you need to fish under your jacket for the zipper. I run the doom jacket in addition and have zero issues. Skiing in Montana it’s seen rime ice, pow, wet snow. Never had an issue with being warm and dry. Great affordable gear in my view.
  • @iamcz117
    Dude I been low key following your vids since season 2. Went through everything including the van conversation. Really good effort and somehow your vids have this feeling that no other vlogs have. Love the heli skiing vid the best. Keep up my man, hope we can ski together one day. Haha
  • Excited to hear you are going to ski the Banff resorts this season! I am headed there for Thanksgiving, hoping for some snow!
  • Long time listener, first time caller......appreciate your review! I am a fan of Flylow gear for the price performance, check it out next time you are refreshing your kit. Hope to see you at Palisades!
  • @techium1
    Thanks for the great and honestly review! What about overall isolation? It is warm as others?
  • @roseforeuropa
    I loved your emphasis on the price-per-performance factor. As a complete noob looking to get into ski sports, I think this set would be an excellent starting point for me. Definitely gonna check out the Doom style. I also noticed there are two variants in each style: Ski vs Snowboard. Any idea what the difference is? The photos look exactly the same.
  • Idk about Montec in particular but I just bought my first pair of bibs and absolutely love them. So much better than pants that end at the waist. You don’t notice them at all and the mobility at the waist is superior. Bonus points as well for mine having a zipper for my willy.
