What do you wear under your bibs?

Are you guys wearing pants? Or just a base layer under your bibs? Or both base + pants?

For most of the season my Rocky mountain thermals and jeans. When it gets near 20 I add some fleece pants I use for archery season ( don't really need bibs until gun opens)

Bibs don't go on until I'm at the tree

I used to wear base layers and pants under bibs but pants are kind of uncomfortable and always bunch up when putting bibs over the top. Now I just wear Minus33 midweight base layer and will add another heavyweight Sitka core over when gets colder.

I just open the leg zippers all the way and put the bibs on...arrange things and then zip up. Ties at the bottom of the pants legs help.....but you could use Velcro strips similar to wader straps.....when I put on waders over pants I strap the bottom of the pants tight with wader straps.

Thanks for the info guys. Something I was thinking about. What if its raining, or rained the day before and you're walking through long grass/bushes and taking on water on your pants? Or you're getting some snow melt on your pants etc etc.

Do you just put your wet pants into your bibs?
