Product Information

Full details

The Hoggs of Fife Green King II Waterproof Bib & Brace is an essential piece of rugged outdoor apparel designed for professionals and outdoor enthusiasts who require reliable protection in harsh, wet environments. Offering a balance of waterproof integrity, breathability, and reinforced durability, this bib and brace excels in demanding manual labor or agricultural tasks; however, its heavy-duty design means it is less suited for casual, lightweight activities where maximum ventilation is prioritized.

FAQs

Is this garment machine washable?

Yes, it is machine washable, but always follow the care label instructions and use a gentle cycle with specialized waterproof apparel detergent.

Can I wear this in the winter?

Yes, the bib and brace is designed for layering, so you can wear thick base layers or thermals underneath to stay warm.

What is the primary material used?

This model is constructed from durable, high-performance nylon, specifically chosen for its ripstop properties.

Are the knees padded?

While they do not contain insertable foam pads, the knee area is reinforced with extra-durable fabric to withstand heavy friction and pressure.

How do I choose the right size?

We recommend measuring your waist and inside leg, then comparing them to the Hoggs of Fife size chart to ensure the bib fits comfortably over your clothing.

Troubleshooting

Water seems to be soaking into the fabric

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off. Wash the garment with a technical cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray treatment.

Straps slipping during movement

Ensure the ski-lock mechanism is fully snapped into the locked position and the strap tension is adjusted correctly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-durability ripstop nylon construction
  • Effective waterproofing and breathability
  • Reinforced knees for improved longevity
  • Practical design with multiple storage pockets
  • Secure fit via adjustable ski-lock straps

Cons

  • Not intended for high-heat, high-activity endurance sports
  • Nylon material may be stiffer than soft-shell alternatives
  • Requires proper care to maintain waterproofing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, adjust the ski-lock shoulder straps while wearing your intended base and mid-layers to ensure adequate room for movement. For compatibility, the bib is cut to accommodate standard work trousers underneath, though you may prefer a lighter-weight base layer if working in warmer, humid conditions. Care for the garment by rinsing off mud with fresh water and allowing it to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage the waterproof coating. If the fabric becomes heavily soiled, use a technical detergent specifically formulated for waterproof breathable membranes to maintain performance.
