i bought 2 jackets, a vest, and pants. not 2 suits.

i know, i cant really justify it, but i had money, and i thought it would be nice to have a 3 color jacket and a 1 color jacket, and it is. and im a vest guy.

sorry to upset you.

You kids on this site are ridiculous. Sure maybe 2 jackets could be looked at as overkill, but so what? He's young, he worked for his money and he put money into the industry. He worked for what he bought so don't tell him what he can and can't buy or what is and isn't a waste of his money. It's HIS OWN money not yours. To each his own. Some people might say that jiberish is a waste of money, or having more than 1 pair of skis is a waste of money.

Guaranteed half the kids on here even don't pay for any of there equipment and then they attack other people when they're excited about their new gear. He slaved away so he could buy what he wants, so what is the point in hating?

This isn't entirely directed at whoever i'm quoting btw.

i personally believe that he misspent his hard earned money, $900 for two jackets, a vest, and pants is unnecessary, i believe that he could have spent half of that much better than on the ability to have 4 different combinations of jacket, pants, vest. he does have every right to spend his money how he wants, however, i am voicing my opinion on the matter.

You are they reason i hate kids on NS, you're fucking ridiculous. Go read the interview with Twall if thats someone you admire (and i'm assuming it is), having a jacket to your knees is fucking stupid.
Either way if you have a jacket to your knees you wont be able to find a tall tee big enough to stick out the bottom.

Just received my new saga anomie ghost XL jacket. It is HUGE... but it does its job and keeps the pow out while lookin like a goon. I am 6ft. and narrow shoulders so for future buyers of similar body build, i would go with the Large. Love the jacket, could use better zipper material. Also shit placement for the ipod holder if your not left handed. Also could use a snow pass holder pocket (unless there is already). Was about waist deep in pow at big white with the jacket with the pow skirt on and had zero snow sneak up. thats a huge plus with a tall jacket. Apart from stare downs from practically everyone the jacket is an overall success. Would be cool if it was possible to make a deal with Canada customs so i wouldn't have to pay $40 duty fee, cause that shits wack. But i was told i could get some money back if i went to customs at the airport?

Also what is the prefered method of washing it? cause already is dirty from the 1st day.

Overall it was a great purchase.

if anyone wants a photo lemme know.

The ipod pocket is on the on the left side of the jacket... making it easy for right handers. Also that is the most waterproof zipper material there is sooo its good enough

look guys, i ski a lot, i love saga, and, although it might be taboo to say, i care about the way i look, and i like to switch it up. i had more than enough money saved up, and with shop deals on skis, i could afford to buy the saga i wanted, along with park and powder skis. kthxbai

Hey Guys,

finally my Saga came :D yeeey. (i got a L darkness pant and a XL smoke and mirrors vest)
the vest is massive... im 6'2 and it comes 2 inches above my knees. its basically too big for me. (i think) i like it a bit tall but not completely retarded big... shall i trade with someone who has a Large saga vest and wants to upsize or shall i keep my XL vest?! Meaning that L is maybe not tall enough for me ?! i want the vest to end up in mid-thigh. ...
can someone help me out?!

thanks (+K)

I put some nuts and skittles in this pocket. Just put a shoeslace and attach your pass to it, work for me. You just have to take your jacket up little bit to show your pass.

This is the problem with Saga, its sizing differences are too large. They NEED a new size, if that means calling medium small, a new 32" medium, large the same, a new XL as 86" and XXL as 38".

If you were to switch from XL to L, you would lose 4.5" of length from the bottom, which i think would make it look too small. When i first got my jacket i thought it was ridiculous, but wear it round the house a bit more, get dressed in all your ski gear and most importantly TAKE PHOTOS. Your perspective is VERY different from someone elses, and you can go WAY baggier and longer than you expect (almost below knee) before it looks silly.

Yes indeed... im in between two sizes. My XL vest is taller (longer) than my last years LDC XLT whick i already thought was HUGE... i think 33.5 inch (length of the L) could be a bit short... but the XL is 38 inches and thats just rediciulous... (im 6'2 and it comes 2 inches above my knees...) but it looks retarded, its just too big. i want it to come to mid-thigh...

FUCK

Bro im from the Uk and i understand how the whole super baggy clothes hasnt caught on over here yet, but trust me - 2 inches above your knees is perfect. I'm 5'8" and got a Large king cobra jacket, its exactly 2 inches above my knee as well. With your boots on, baggy pants and everything else it will look sweet.

It only looks stupid when you get to knee/below knee height, and 2 inches from the top of your knee is a long way from that. Embrace your steeze, you cant change it anyway.
