Hey, I'm stuck in a throwup between saga and LDC, more then likely ill be buying the saga suit. Just looking for a second opinion and if anyone knows anything about the new styles and when/where i can preorder saga and LDC suits. Much appreciated.

How can you consider "LDC"? Do you really think their waterproofness, colors, fit, and overall quality can compare to Saga in any way shape or form? The answer is no.

So untrue. I have LDC and my friend has sage and I would say the overall quality is the same, my jacket fits great, never gotten wet with it, I really like the color and the material is a lot thinker than my friends saga suit. I am not saying one is better than the other one but I really like my LDC jacket so unless you have actually owned both you can't really say those things.

i rode saga this past season and it has been probably the best suit ive ever experienced, 0 complaints whatsoever with saga.  on the other hand i have yet to try out LDC so I cant really compare.

saga is rated at much higher waterproofing.
also i have read that the quality of saga's materials are superior to that of LDC. i really don't know if that's true though.
in any case, saga is pretty nice, but the seems leak and there is some weird wear and tear that i think wouldn't really happen. Also, this past years is significantly flimsier feeling than the saga i have..

from what i've seen the quality of saga's fabric actually seem's to be lesser than firstdrop. More rips and more pilling on this years saga stuff than lethal decent. compared from a few peoples saga suits to my first drop suit.

i love my ldc suit. works fine havent gotten wet and i got 60+ days on it this season. i ripped the sleeve completely minor i could have sewn it and they said ship it back then they sent me a whole new jacket so customer support is awesome. my friend has last years saga and its sick, i love the ivory pants. they seem way thinner and his jacket got a huge rip in it that saga wouldnt repair/replace. also this years saga looks so thin? i see kids riding in the xl jackets and the flap around like shirts...
both brands are great

Not sure if any of you have seen this, but i found it on this site, still noone knows about preorders? this thread has not so surprisingly turned into a bashing thread.
