N1 Deck Bib?

[WolfofStateSt]

I am on lots of small boats in 20-degree and colder weather with cold water spray. Does anyone have any recommendations for something that will protect me better than blue jeans in this frigid weather? Ideally, I could wear them over jeans and with an N1 Deck jacket.

Edit: So I discovered this thing called the N1 Deck Bib, and I saw there have been no posts about it on the forum; I thought this curious item deserved a post.

I could be wrong but I seem to remember that the bib connects to the N-1 jacket by loops under the armpits of the N-1. The original N-1 should have the attaching loops, others do not.

When sailing, I had Gore Tex trousers to protect me from the spray. No attaching loops needed. Those trousers, along with a foul weather coat did the job.

Makes sense, I doubt the conditions I’ll face will be as extreme as the ones you encounter. I stick very close to the shore at all times. I ordered a pair of repro N1 Bibs that are Alpaca lined; I’ll share my findings on the forum. It should look interesting paired with the Ironheart N1 Deck Jacket

Hey, fellow fisherman. I used to fish offshore in NJ in winter; great fun! Now in FL, so shorts and flip-flops.

Regarding warm bibs - I saw a few guys wearing Carhartt arctic bibs (not sure of the name), but they looked like they could be worn in the Arctic...

Edit - I now think it was a kind of a Carhartt arctic onesie - a scary-looking thing, perfect for braving winter storms on the Atlantic Ocean. Maybe they make bibs too.

Throw some fleece underneath

I already ordered Carhartt insulated pants for working on the farm. I ordered some sketchy N1 Deck Bib for the sea. Though, I’ll probably be doing all my activities from the shoreline until spring.

I made the mistake of going in up to my knees in the lake the other day, only wearing jeans, was only 15 degrees out. Not fun, friends had to drive me home in my underwear.
