| I just ordered a pair of Frabill F4 bibs. They seem very nice, but not sure I like the gusset inside the front zipper. The front zipper is a two-way zipper, but it doesn't do any good due to the gusset behind it. Seems like you have to take the bib shoulder straps off just to take a leak.
I am wondering if the Frabill FXE bibs have the gusset. Can someone that has the FXE let me know?
thanks |

| The spill way on the FXE suit is one of the best features on it. I have a hard time believing they changed it with the new suits... |

| So I stand corrected. I shot Frabil and e-mail and they came back and said the new bibs do not have the Spillway....which makes no sense to me what so ever but perhaps they work in a idfferent manner.... |

Does the coat have a two way zipper? I just purchased the Cabelas goretext guidewear extreme, and it too has the 'spillway' design and a one way zipper on the bibs. While I wish it had a two way zip, with the elastic on the bibs and two way zipper on my coat, I can easily take a leak. |

Location: Twin Cities | The bibs have a 2 way but for what reason I don't know. You can't get in through that zipper due to the inside liner. The jacket does not. |
