So durable. I've fallen on concrete wearing orage stuff and not even a mark. I've had one jacket for 3 or 4 years, and it's not really waterproof anymore, it's too small, and it has a funny smell, but no rips or tears or anything.

I have another orage jacket that seems to be the same durability, but no smell and it's still waterproof.

Really nice and warm too. I think you'd be stoked on your suit if you got that next season.

orage is sick. the jackets are realy warm and good quality. the tj isnt their top of the line quality so it ont be as good... but still outdoes many others. ive had orage for like 5 years now and ive had other jackets in between to comapre against and orage is still winning. the pants will rip at the bottom but so wil every other pant... ( for future reference put this in gear talk...) so ilike very much! :P

Same, ive had my orage jacket for 3 years and besides getting dirty you would almost think it was new. I was thinking about the orange and brown tj jacket, they all look sick

orage jackets are very durable, and definately warm and comfy. I wore one for all of last years season and my jackets still in great shape.

I have actually had my orage jacket for the past 6 years. And have worn it every season. First four years it was my only winter coat. And it has lasted. The only problem I've had with it is the bottom seam coming out from where my belt sits, and even then, it's been a 3 year process and it's hardly even that bad. Warmth? Sick, mine is a medium heaviness and it is super solid. I rarely get cold and if I do it's usually because my pants are only a shell and I don't layer properly.
I'd go for it, personally. I'm waiting to find another jacket just like the one I have now and until I find it, I'll continue wearing my orage jacket.
