1) that is alright, its not shitty, but its no lab jacket either
and 2) seth morrison will throw a rodeo 7 off a 50 foot cliff with that exact jacket on and ol' threesixty skunk boy will think that jacket is the tightest thing in the world and go out and buy it

your a fucking fool for saying oakley sucks, just cus of one jacket, mostly everything else they have is pimp shit, especially the goggles and sunglasses, so i guess in all actuality,
YOU SUCK!

I'm not going to give my opinion about Oakley, but I'm really curious as to how ONE of their products in ONE color configuration makes the entire company suck.

their compression jacket looks sick. I didn't dislike their Hotel jacket, remember no matter how hard Oakley tries, they can't please everyone. Simple fact.

if anything, oakley has improved all their gears quality, last year they had shit with 2000mm water resistancing or whatever, this year i think the lowest is 10,000mm or very close

i think for oakley being as big as it is, they should be making much more apparel and goggle options... i hate the wisdoms... i think theyre so weird looking.. i dont really like a-frames either.. o-frames are the only ok thing.. pretty much electric is way better...haha.. yah

That is not their complete line. Why they don't have more on their site I don't know. I've seen their hard copy catalogue and there is quite a bit more.

From what I could see on their site, they only had 2 of the 3 types of jackets on there. I believe their system goes jet fuel (1-layer), nitro fuel (2-layer, crital taped seams) and rocket fuel (3-layer, fully taped seams and zippers). The names might be off, but thats basically how it works.

I could only see the top two levels on there, and even then, I know of at least 2 other jackets by name that weren't on there, the Impulse, not Impluse Squared, and a different type of Thrust. Plus others in the 2-level and all the 1-level (similar to 2x4 quality) outerwear wasn't on there.

They also have different pants they weren't showing.

Just because a company changes the designs of their products doesn't mean they are shit. As far as I can see, you just don't like the colours; so get different ones you idiot. The quality of their stuff is only getting better, and if you still don't like it, buy something else.

Oakley is alright, it's just that everything is pretty overpriced, and some of their stuff just crosses the line with that biotechnical theme in mind. Like look at some of their watches and shoes, they're all wavy and weird shit like that. Their winter clothing isn't too bad, except for the prices. By the way, what do they mean by like 2,000 mm of water resistance? I'm thinking of getting the 2x6 pant because i can get them for a good price.

You guys are a bunch of pretty boys. You don't belong in the freeskiing industry if you care that much about clashing colors. Who the hell cares what the colors are. It functions better than any other brand of skiwear out there.
