Well, at first I was completely sure about getting the fari suit, but know I'm starting to doubt a lot, firstdrop has gone into my brain now, but I'm not sure about which one has better materials, durability ... I know that firstdrop's breathibility and waterproofing is 20k and the fari oakley suit is 15k/20k or viceversa... doest mind those 5k...
I think that fari is more like a shell and that it has no insulation, whereas firstdrop looks at first look to be insulated, please, HELP ME !

Get whatever you like most. Don't let NS decide for you.

Nobody really knows about First Drop's durability this year so it is a gamble. That being said they seem to have great Customer Service to back you up along with some sick color ways and a guarantee that this years stuff is going to be better.
Oakley will cost you more, but you know your getting years of experience in making outerwear.

first drop suit is looking awesome thats what i got. Fari suit is so dope too tho, but limited colors. as far as quality goes, cant go wrong with oakley. They make real good stuff and been around with years. First drop on the other hand is only in their 2nd year, but rumors have it that this year they stuff is gonna be very durable and waterproof. But we will have to see. Not sure on the price difference. Go with what you think will look better, because tehy are both high quality products (hopefully lol).
