DNA outerwear is such great quality. Far superior to Oakley, and not that much more, sometimes less expensive.
DNA is one of the top few companies in my eyes. They don't use gore tex but their material is very very good. super waterproof and durable. Who gives that much of a fuck about looks, both of those would look fine for looks but I'd definitely go with DNA for the quality.

i really like that Oakley jacket...but DNA would be my bet.  You will be almost the only one with that jacket, plus your a supporting a smaller, domestic company that will out end up being better quality

I would go with DNA. I think they are at least as good as Oakley, and I like the look of that DNA jacket better than the Oakley one. DNA is imho, underrated.

Oakley is based out of South County and Descente is based out of Utah.  Do they do better paperwork in Utah or what?

You are an idiot.

With everyone going away from Oakley, I have a feeling it's gonna be really popular again in a few years. Then people won't think it's "played" anymore.

DNA is super core- instead of taking their athletes to IF3 they took random girls for photos.  Doesn't get more core and rider oriented than telling your skiers you would rather spend the budget on wanna be models.

Yeah, Oakley is way more core than DNA, listen to this guy. Jesus fucking christ you are mentally fucking retarded, oakley is more core than DNA because they didnt hire hot models? Christ go back to kindergarten because society is not capable of handling your ignorance~
