Hi gear gurus of NS, help me out. I would love either pants or jackets in baby blue. It is my favorite color but never really have it as ski gear. Can anyone help me out? What are some jackets or pants, insulated or not, but more freeride oriented and have at least 10-15K waterproofing? There are lots of 'light' blues like Oakley's Ozone or other similar colors, but I really want a baby or super light blue to the extent that it is nearly white. I just can't seem to think of any I like. Yes I know Saga from a few seasons ago, but those are hard to come by in good condition. Thanks NS.

See this is what I am trying to say - those are not baby blue.  The burton jacket the guy above posted in definitely closer.  But let me specify and say very light blue.

I had some four square pants last year that were baby blue and 10k and fit pretty baggy.

I'm in search of a nice, cheap, at least 10k/10k blue jacket also.  I just love the color blue, any shade really.  Baby blue is sick though.

Yeah, I have my eye on those, but I am looking for something in a previous season in case I can avoid paying full price.  I don't really pay even close to retail for anything any more and I would like to keep it that way.

try volcom, i cant think of anything specifically, but i know they have done some lighter colors in the past. i know you want to avoid paying retail, but when you are looking for something so specific you may have to sack up and pay it if you really want it.

okay I found my first choice but can't find it for sale anywhere - it is an Analog Wire jacket in moody blue from like 3 years ago.  If you find it in large or XL in excellent condition I'll give ya $20.

Thats what I was thinking about, the blue jacket Twall wore last year but he wants to find a jacket on sell so that one would probably be too expensive and too hard to find.

Whoops, sorry about that man. I read the title and first two sentences and thought of those pants because I thought that they were sick and basically light blue. My bad, +K

dude, nice work. If that bonfire jacket didnt have huge pockets on the chest I would buy it in 2 seconds.  Seriously.  Two of my favs - baby blue and pinstripe.  Still thinking about it even though I hate the pockets.

I just went to my local shop, and they had a Burton one that was baby blue that was actually sick.  I tried to look for it on Burton's website but I couldn't find it since they have too many jackets with too many different colorways.  If I do go buy it/look at it again, I'll let you know what it's called.

Its kind of retarded how many styles and colors Burton has... Like 10 colors per jacket x 100 jackets equals alot.
