i dont think it would be a good business practice to sell sleves seperately, but i guess that's their decision.

Ya, but when you buy the goggles from Oakley or a nother distributer, you have to buy the whole goggle. If you want to trade sleeves or parts youhave to do this on your own.

I think the sleeve trading idea is good, but asking for different sleeves than the ones that it comes with is stupid

Buying extra sleeves is dumb. Buying different color sleeves to match the jacket your buying is reasonable.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. We have decided to offer extra interchangeable bibs for $19 and a set of sleeves (2) for $19 in all the production colors. We know it might not be for everyone, but it won't hurt to offer it, right?

This will probably only be available for people who pre-order their suits, and just like last year, the only way we can guarantee the size/colors you want will be available is if you pre-order in the next month or so.

Look for the new website to launch in the next day or so, complete with pre-orders for 10/11 gear. We'll also be coming out with a ton of cool, new products this year that can be easily added to your order later.

We look forward to another great year!

- First Drop

PS, David Lesh was wearing an XL prototype suit in the Freeskier video... sizing has been changed on all sizes from last year, and some changes have even been made since that prototype suit Lesh was testing... better fit for sure.

this is why i love first-drop. they listen to the market so much and tailers their product for us. Only thing is that i have run out of money and will need to borrow a shit load off my mates to buy a suit then pay them back in the summer after working.

peace

XL, The bibs can be cinched or loosened for a tighter or baggier look.

Website also says 5'9-6'5 should wear xl





I'm 6'1 and wondering if I should go xl or xlt. I want it to fit as big if not bigger than my XXL first drop hoodie.

I was thinking the same thing. But saga comes out with the dopest stuff every year and this year their quality is going to be even better. First drop's stuff is supposed to be a lot better quality this year, but who knows for sure. Im waiting for saga

is it possible to order a jacket that has no zippers on the sleeves? because for me, strenght and how long it lasts is important, and i think that the zippers would affect that alot

Now I really cannot decide what to go for. The blue/black FD suit or the Simon Dumont Oakley suit...

What's the price for both?
