When it's cold, I prefer to wear bib overalls with a jacket. My current bibs are loud and scratchy, and basically impossible to stay quiet. Can any of you guys recommend a good quality brand that is quiet? (looking to stay under $150)

Your price point leaves you with cabela, redhead, scheels private label, maybe.
If you are looking for stationary warmth, IWOM or Heaterbody suit.
Mobile Quiet- Cabelas Berber or woolitmate, or Sitka’s fanatic

My Sitka bibs are great, but certainly not a bargain.

Just as a point of reference, a pair of sitka stratus bibs with anything under them will pretty much suffice for any weather in texas minus the panhandle. These are designed for treestand not box blind hunting. Could be used in a box but are designed with the treestand hunter in mind. I bought mine “used” as a return/tried on for over 130 off retail. There are deals out there. I wore them the other day with some down puffy pants under and a baselyer under those, in the tree and it was 22 degrees and i was fine and warm. They are quiet, windproof, but only water resistant not water proof.
Look at the used market or the barely used market and get some good deals. I cant recommend sitka gear for quiet bow hunting gear enough, but for “quiet” active hunting i think then sitka gear is probably a little warm but the stratus bibs do have two way zippers full length on the legs to allow some venting. The fanatic line does not have those zippers i dont beloeve, but maybe. I think fanatic bibs would be barely used in texas.
