On nikes website it only has the waist, hip, and chest lengths. Could someone tell me the length and/or if you have the jacket how tall are you, what size do you have, and how does it fit on you.
the zipper on large is 33.5 inches. i believe the xl is 43 inches. i had the xl and returned it, because the bottom elastic ribbing was too wide and you cant synch it, and got the l instead, which was a bit less wide. i am 5'10/11 and 170 lbs and it fits mid thigh, baggy yet completely reasonable.
i think there are pics in my profile, if not, pm me and ill post some'
Do not buy 6.0 outerwear!....trust me you will be sorry the first time you fall and put a giant tear in it....their materials are paper thin and the most horrendous outerwear I've ever owned. Do yourself a favor and get anything....anything else....you could literally make a suit out of construction paper and scotch tape that will hold up better.
mine held up great all year. no tears or anything, even after falling on rails and such. and the waterproofing was surprisingly good for 10k. i skied in the rain multiple times and never got wet
Well first of all he's a little off on the sizing because I own a xl jacket and can tell you the zipper length is 34 while the 2xl is 37. (idk about the large's zipper size though) As for quality mine has held up great, I have had no tears or even rails stains on it and I fell a ton this year learning 270s onto round rails. (My old saga 10-11 saga stuff has more damage done to it and I usually ski in my nike jacket too)
You would -k me for tryin to help someone out?....and 0/10 huh?....funny cause I don't pay attention to it...thought it was for the 12 yr olds.....anyway I have been using 6.0 shoes, etc for mtb since they hit the scene. Never had an issue with any Nike product I've ever owned....until I bought the outerwear last season. I got the budmo pants and the kippis jacket. My first day out in em I saw a kid rockin the same pants with a tear all the way up the back. He saw my pants and said watch out they're super cheap. He said he fell once on a box first time wearin em and split the whole pant leg. I figured maybe it was just a bad fall for him. At the end of the day when I was getting changed I saw a few 2-4" tears on my pants by the cuff where your edge would hit doin an ironcross. After 4 days of wearing them they were full of tears and even had some seams loosening. On the kippis jacket I noticed the same loosening seams and liners inside were separating from the shell. I called Nike and they said send em back no prob. So I did. It cost me $15 to ship. They sent the stuff back sayin that I had tore the products with a foreign object....riiiight... So now maybe that type of quality is normal to the kids who's parents buy them new shit every year but not me. I have an Oakley suit that is six years old and taken some abuse without so much as a scuff in it. So -k me all ya want. I don't really give a crap. But I'm not gonna stand by and let someone make a $500 mistake buying a 6.0 suit that's crap quality when they could spend that on Oakley and get top notch quality. -k me for giving advice....your a fag and fail at life kid.
I've got the Kippis Jacket and Budmo pants and the only tear I have in them after a season of use is from one of the pockets catching on a tree branch (completely my fault). Other than that, no stains, super warm, weatherproof and looks pretty bad ass.
Your lucky. I've talked to at least 4 people with the budmo pants who have destroyed them innless than a week. Hope yours hold up another season for ya. As for me, I'm totally done with 6.0 and will never buy their products again.
Yeah, it probably helps that I'm not into rails, so I don't get rail burn or anything on my outerwear. I'd have to take a pretty nasty spill on a cliff or jump to mess this stuff up.
Yeah my cuffs tore from doing ironcrosses.....on day one....no bs....guess I got the bad batch....haha...seriously I'm the first person I've heard of having an issue with the jacket but your the first person I've talked to who's owned the budmo pant and hasn't said it's paper thin and tore their first time out....awesome for you though because I loved the look and fit of them....but mine were like Saran wrap thin.....
