Sick thanks man! As long as this years model carries the same warmth over I'll be set. I'm 5'-8" (I think) 135 Lbs. Would a large do? Looking for something baggy but not super thug.

LOL it's only been out four years (including the 12-13 line)... not exactly a lifetime there

but you are right; early support from people like yourself allowed armada to progress their line each year to where it's at now with GORE, Polartec, etc.

are you kidding me? that was
A. a terrible commercial
B. a boring ass looking jacket

I love henrik's skiing, but when he tries to talk like a gangster, he sounds like trailer trash instead.

Fair point, but it's

A. Made by a ski company that I would like to support

B. It may be just be a black jacket, but It is hard to find a black jacket with a tall fit and that appears to be of good quality.

C. I don't know if you noticed, but there is a lot of interest in that jacket within this thread, and I was solely trying to make my own contribution to this thread.

most companies dont have commercials period. it was basically armada showing off the jacket(s). they put out quality.

they have many skis that overlap yes, but look at how each is different. norwalk = cross between jj and tst = ski that replaces the ant (a stiff big mountain charger). the ak jj = longer, stiffer wider jj (for taller (bigger) more aggressive skiers). the majic j = wider jj (for the person that is hitting the steep shit 24/7) made for tanner. the bubba = cross between jj and arg ( new model makes it more versatile than the limited arg) more effective edge.

Ok so I'm almost 100% on a B-dog for this season. The one major deal breaker for me, it is a down, puffy-ish jacket righ?. But is the material on the jacket that kind of H/H puffy fabric that has a sheen to it (kind of silky?)

Example:

If it is, then its a 100% no go because any time I've seen a jacket like that, they are torn the fuck up. They also look retarded IMO..... What I want it to be is Orage's typical canvas kind of fabric, the same thing you would find on like 90% of their jackets.
