NEW FOR 2026

Answering the Call

Driven by hunter requests and the popularity of the Ridge series, ScentLok is now stocking the all-new, deadly-quiet Ridge Bib

MUSKEGON, Mich. (June 26, 2026) – ScentLok answered the call from whitetail hunters requesting a dedicated bib to complete the brand's premier midseason system. Driven by the massive popularity of the Ridge series, ScentLok fast-tracked the all-new hunting bibs well before any season openers. Fully stocked online and now shipping, this early arrival pairs elite scent management and thermal efficiency with dead-silent mobility.

"The Ridge system represents the pinnacle of midseason whitetail apparel," said ScentLok Marketing Director, Steve Allie. "We built it to offer the perfect balance of feature-richness and action-ready benefits, matched with ultra-quiet fabrics. Now that the Ridge Bib is officially shipping, hunters can lock down the complete, matching system before heading into the stand this fall."

Fabric First. Comfort Focused.

A "fabric-first" design philosophy drives the entire collection, and this new bib is no exception. Built to withstand the erratic weather of midseason hunts, the Ridge Bib utilizes a premium fabric pairing optimized for stealth and insulation.

The Exterior: A stretchy, smooth, micro-tricot polyester shell that remains silent in freezing temperatures.

The Interior: A lofted, ultra-soft berber fleece lining engineered for supreme next-to-skin comfort and an exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio.

"The loft and comfort of the berber fleece is unbelievable," Allie added. "It delivers significantly more warmth than your average midseason option without adding unnecessary bulk or restricting movement."

Elite Scent Control Architecture

The bib integrates advanced, proprietary technologies to neutralize a hunter's footprint:

Built for the Stand, Engineered for the Move

Every stitch is tailored for the specific demands of whitetail hunting. Key mobility features include articulated, preformed knees that prevent binding while climbing or sitting, alongside a gusseted crotch panel that dramatically improves range of motion on the walk in.

The traditional overall strap setup has been completely overhauled as well. The bib features fully elastic, highly adjustable comfort ladder suspenders populated with silicone grip to prevent slipping off the shoulders when drawing a bow or settling into a stand.

For field functionality, a two-way center front zipper provides convenience when nature calls, while knee-length side seam leg zippers allow hunters to slide the bibs on or off easily without removing their mud-caked boots.

Zero-Shortage Storage

Designed to function flawlessly as a standalone outer layer, the bib is armed with an extensive eight-pocket layout to keep critical gear organized and accessible:

Available Camo Patterns:

NEW Realtree XT-3™

Realtree XT-3™ is a versatile camouflage pattern engineered for performance across multiple terrains, using an abstract foundation of geometric lines, layered textures, and strategically placed color breaks. Realtree XT-3™ disrupts the human outline through sharp angles and fractured shapes that mimic the visual chaos found in diverse environments. Its balanced palette adapts seamlessly from open ground to mixed cover, allowing the pattern to remain effective in changing light, distance, and habitat conditions, making it a true multi-location camo built for adaptability and concealment.
