Did anyone else realize that Orage and Siver are owned and managed by the same corporation? "Coalision" Company ownes Siver, Orage, and Lole. I had no idea until today.

orage is probably plannning on making its own line of street wear so theres no point in having both names when it can all be made under the orage brand name.

they should have made orange and siver under the name siver cartel instead of orage. just cuz in my experience siver stuff has been nicer than orage.

but siver is generally cheaper, its just a question of whether they will still do the siver type stuff with the orage name or not

I don't think anyone could have done a better job of proving that Ski Punx is not a part of the ski industry.

orage stuff is top of the line. siver, as much as i wanted to like the company (i liked a lot of the streetwear), their outerwear looked kind of weak and performed even worse.

Yeah.. a lot of Siver stuff looked amazing... but 5,000 waterproofing on all models doesn't cut it...

Orage stuff always seemed a little more weatherproof in my opinion. My old Orage jacket ruled for skiing cruddy days. Siver would be stuff I would wear on the street, but I'd take Orage gear on a heli trip, especially some of their newest stuff.

5k waterproofing sucks. No way around that.

I think it was all 5k except for the dinner suit (which I have :D ) which was 8k I believe
cheap stuff but fairly good quality, I'd say same level as my previous 686/burton outfit, plus it looks way better.
next outerwear will definitely be orage though, the tweed looks so sick for next year.

I have the dinner suit in 'goose' color (strange name!) but very much attention to detail with this gear! I am very pleased. Nice little things like fold-over pocket flaps, the big wood buttons are easy to use with gloves on, and the fabric pattern is very cool too. Tramdock spec says 10k, but this is a pow suit I think~ Good for dry, light powder because of teflon coating. But many of their design was not very cool, and some of it very strange (turkish jacket!), it is another brand who only sells to a certain person, so not very much money to make. Unfortunate but this is business. Also, their gear is very very very baggy!
Kind regards,
hito

Well siver really is dead, but Orage will only make sicker clothes so it only goes on sicker.(I agree that the siver logo was cool...)
