"Building bibs to fit women can be tough, but Trew nailed it with the Capow." Right from the get go, SKI Mag's recent article Best Women’s Ski Pants of 2025 sings the praises of our W Capow Bib....and then some. It's always such an honor to flank the digital pages of such a prestigious publication, but this review in particular had us glowing with pride over the hard work we've put into designing, testing, and creating this women's-specific bib.

Taking the Best Overall designation is a huge honor, and we hope that you enjoy this well-crafted, thoughtfully-designed bib as much as much as SKI did.

The Fit

"With a relaxed fit in the legs and three different inseam lengths to choose from, these were a top pick for both resort and backcountry skiers from the Green Mountains to the Rockies. There were two key design choices that made the Capow shine....the mid-rise bib comes up just below the boobs, so they never felt too tight or too baggy on top.

'Trew knows how to make bibs,' said our 5’5”, 135-pound tester from Wyoming. 'These were the best fitting I’ve ever worn. They fit well around the middle, and were not baggy or tight in the butt and thighs.'"

The Fabric

"What’s more, they were a fortress in deep pow. Burly fabric and a good internal leg cuff helped keep testers warm, dry, and fully protected no matter the conditions. Made from stretchy Dermizax EV Membrane with a breathable stretch nylon on the bib, they withstood wear and tear all season long. High-tenacity yarns at the cuffs and durable kick patches also proved cut- and abrasion-resistant."

The Features

"They feature Trew’s user-friendly drop seat so you can easily answer when nature calls. The high fly zip was another feature testers called out. “It allowed me to use the drop seat, but provided some extra space to pull up my layers underneath and tuck my shirts in smoothly,” said another tester who snowboards, and calls Snowbasin, Utah her home hill.

Testers also appreciated the jacquard suspenders, which stayed put thanks to silicone strips. All the zippers are water-resistant, and if you prefer to carry your transceiver high rather than low, the right chest pocket has enough space plus a D-ring for added security. Internal boot gaiters were stretchy enough for both alpine and touring boots. We loved the gaiter slit that let us tighten our boots’ booster strap without pulling up the gaiter."

The final verdict: "All in all, a burly, versatile bib that wowed testers with its fit and features."
