i went into subway to buy a meatball marinara, but the oven roasted chicken breast looked so good that i ordered that instead.  was this a good choice?  i don't want to wake up in the morning and find that my body is low on carbohydrates.

the raging viking jacket? I saw it in person today and it looked pretty sick. I know the north face hasnt really produced baggier and cooler designs like some other companies but they have always made really high quality stuff. I think that the vikiin jacket it a pretty good but since it looks pretty chill and im sure its gonna be good quality and it will last a long time

TNF sucks dick, that and you based a jacket on looks.
And Orage is a way sicker company than TNF will ever be.

Just from what you said about the north face, you obviously also base jackets on looks. Orage is good, so is North Face. Depends on your style. Stop being a biased-baggy-clothed park-rat and consider the fact that there are other styles to match other people and it doesn't mean they suck if it's not baggy and flashy just for you.

bahaha, it has NOTHING to do with looks.  It has to do with the companies, the quality, and I'd rather support Orage than TNF, based 0% on looks.  I don't even wear baggy/flashy park shit.
Orage is a sick ski company, TNF makes a bunch of other shit, they are just too big and their quality is absolute shit for the price.

I don't support either. North face has become "made in china" quality and sold as if they didn't use child labor. I find Orage is quite expensive still because it's "made in U.S with U.S quality". Didn't mean to be an ass to you, but you just seemed like the kind of person who says things like "ON3P are the best no matter what". I hate biased fanboys.

As far as tech. The raging viking jacket is on a whole other level the the TJ jacket.

Not to say that Orage does not make good stuff, they do, but the Viking jacket is from the upper end of TNF's stuff.

North Face make some of the most durable jackets to date. And there designs aren't all that bad look at the scare crow suit or the halo suit. To be honest I was going to buy the halo suit over my Saga suit but in the end I went with saga. This shows that north face can easily be compared to Saga or LDC.
