I have not heard any word on it yet. Last thing I knew Simon was getting samples and if he okays them then they were going to be produced. Be patient they will come.

why is empire such a big deal? its like when reebok started making hockey equipment, no one knew how good or bad it was yet everyone was like "i gotta get that shit cuz its reebok".

and a bandana (if you ask me it doesn't look bad...)
http://www.empireattire.com/?cat=1

i don't know why everyone hates on empire, they're so new that there shouldn't be so much hype, but their too new to hate either...

heres a freeskier interview with simon on it:

Yeah i definatly dont think that the hat looks very cool, all those "empire" words makes it a bit too busy for me. I dont know though, im not gonna hate the company tho until it comes out with more products, then ill decide.

That empire today thing though is hilarious, just saw one of the ads again this morning..

Im not excited at all for empire, they are def not headed the way I wish freeskiing would go.

I emailed them and asked them if now that they had candide designing they would have some cool bright colors instead of getting into the gangster steeze category. And they said that "all their gloves would be a clean cut leather design that appeals to all"
-IE: yes all our clothes and gloves will be gangster steeze shit.

TJ mentioned something on ESPN, saying

"Watch for the gloves dropping this winter"

Or something along those lines.
