^ all there stuff was super expensive
i went to that store on church street, thats deffinatly not the right location for a ski store just because burlington really isnt a ski town...although it seems like it might be.

their shit was chinsey and they deserved to go out of business. the only thing that company had going for them was plake, and its a good thing he got outta there while the going was good.

yeah, they picked burlington because its chill and kinda like the east coast's boulder.. but yeah it didn't really work out, it was also mad tough cause rent for that big of a space on Church street is so ridiculous.. and then the building got flooded so that ruined a lot of merch and took out about a month of profit time haha, they had NO luck.

Dang.
But you say they pulled their plug half way through making their 08 line... so have they made half the stuff they were expecting to make?
'Cause if they had, they should have a mad-ass clearance sale. Ski industry supporters should def. buy shit from 'em

I saw a 4XL north face jacket at TJ Maxx, but it was over $200. It went past my knees, and it even had 600 gram down fill.
That sucks for predator. So many clothing companies are going out of business.

Insulated eel jacket for $50 was worth every penny. Seems like it'll be worth, and 20k/20k I couldn't resist.

yes the line they made geared towards racers/mogulers was always kinda ugly--but the more freeski oriented shit was SICK. Plus the outerwear was SO functional. The pants I had were fleece lined, incredibly wawrm, and incredibly durable--stood up to constant mute-grab-ski-slicing like no other pant ive ever used.
i was gonna sell my bright red hawaiian bluebird day pants but i think i'm keeping them now for sentimental value.
