Ok, so I was happy and had decided to buy the first drop suit for next year…

But then I herd that they were absolute crap. I just wanted to hear what some more peoples thoughts about the first drop suit?

Anyone who says that First Drop is "complete crap" is a complete idiot. /Thread

"Absolute crap" and absolute idiot. My bad. Seriously though, First Drop is super legit. I got a suit from them and used it all season and it worked and held up great. Dry, warm, good vents, durable, the works. And this was their first full production year selling to the public. I expect big things from them for next year and they are only going to improve on an already very good product.

UPDATE FROM CHINA. Just saw the final 10/11 samples and approved the fabric for 10/11, super thick, strong, durable, and 20k waterproof. Best fabric we have ever personally seen.

Lots of cool new features, better construction, stronger accessories, stronger stitching, all the good stuff. Expect big things from First Drop this year. Preview picture coming in the next few weeks, full color line-up and pre-orders beginning in June.

You won't be disappointed.

speaking of saga, how much inventory is there? enough to not sell out before next years saga drops? no intent to say first drop is not a first rate outerwear company...

If they amp it up to 20K/20K like I've been hearing, then First Drop is on the same level, except First Drop is insulated. Would be great for those pow days but blows on those 50 degree Spring days.
