Burton makes some great, high quality outerwear. Who cares about which brand is skiing or snowboarding, as long as your dry and having a good time.

burton has their outerwear down just as well as if not better almost every ski and snowboard company out there so why not? I absolutely stand by their ronin lineup. great shit. its whter or not you wana support the snowboard industry.

Don't worry man. A snowbaorder at my hill was wearing a siver jacket. i asked him if he knew what siver was and he said a ski clothing company. he said he liked there stuff and it was a deal. Buy what you like because you like it not because other people.

yeah, the AK gear is probably my favorite line of super technical outerwear around. i had ronin pants for a while, it looks and works good, i don't see any problem, and tons of skiers wear burton stuff.

Dude no worries about it. I haven't gotten flamed once for wearing a full on Burton gear. No one cares because they know Burton makes sick/cheap gear. Sure on NS they may, but on the hill, no one would.

Well I got a pair of Phantom Burton pants and jacket for 200, so I'd say that's pretty cheap.

Yea that was a good deal. Most of their stuff is around 200 but if you compare that to Orage, HH, and Spyder... it's a pretty decent deal.

I'm in the same boat as a lot of people on here *sigh of relief*. My last pair of pants were burton and my new ones are too, just because they were cheaper than orage or siver stuff (or anything else i could find for that matter.)I'm the only one who has ever noticed so no worries!

wearing burton pants is really no different than wearing anon goggles or r.e.d. helmets...besides, snowboarding is cooler anyway

I got a pair of $180 Burton pants for 50 bucks. I was really happy but now i'm a little worried the insides of the pant legs will get ripped apart by my edges really quickly. But for 50 bucks...

I bought the coat today for 475 Swiss franc, it's about 380$.

I'm buying the pants next tuesday, and they're about 290$.

But it's a limited edition from Burton, and the guy at my shop told me that there are like 100 of this jacket for Europe, you gotta hurry up :p

Yah, Burton is totally legit. Mostly cause my mom's boyfriend works there and I get 50% off all their stuff.
I'm totally getting a huge Burton set-up next year, their stuff is so sick, and skiing style is so close to snowboarding style it doesn't make you look like a snowboarder, label you as a snowboarder, or say anything about snowboards (oh, except the Burton thing, but you get it)

i got burton pants because they looked cool and matched my jacket. and they have good quality.

If somebody is looking at what brand your clothes and judging you by them instead of riding, then they have a problem not you.
