Fatigue suit came in today.
XL coat was a little larger than I had imagined, but I really don't mind. I love it actually. (I'm 6'3", 170lbs. I sized wisely).

L Fatigue pants we're the perfect amount of fit I was looking for, plus you can't go wrong with black pants. Suspenders feel great with the pants as well.

Also like the Riding Pullover, I'm sure it'll make a great layer, plus great for the warmer days.

On top of that, I had completely forgot that I ordered a tee shirt. Love the fit, plus it looks good.

Love the gear guys. First time buying Saga, and I can only imagine I'll be picking up a new coat next season.

Yep so finally got my Collegiate hoodie today! I think I can honestly say it's the warmest thing I've ever worn. Also, it looks fucking good too! Saga, you guys are sick. Keep doing you thing and as soon as I have the money, I'm getting myself some proper gear from you guys!

Question for someone who has their saga. How long from the day you ordered your saga to the day it was shipped?

This really depends when the order was placed. if it was placed this summer during pre orders it would be several months. but if someone placed their order today and all the items they ordered were in stock it would be packed and shipped within 2 days. from there the shipping company has control over delivery.

Can you post a picture where you wear your fatique jacket.
I'm the same size as you, and really can't decide whether I should go with a XL or XXL

Thanks

both the khaki and the red are sick with black jacket, theyve been the favorites from our team this year. but if you dont like others having the same gear as you i would suggest the blue. more customers have been purchasing the red and khaki color ways than the blue.

got my XL fatigue suit and suspenders (these things are sweet btw saga). Will post pics up later! Really happy with them. Pants are actually the PERFECT fit for me. The jacket is a tad bigger than I expected but still sick.

I had such a hard time too, originally ordered the blue then switched to red. Super happy with the red and black combo but it would really look awesome with any of them. Decided on red cause it matches more of my other accessories

I was thinking about buying a pair of fatigues. I wore a pair of Peak performance XL last year, which don't fit me baggy, but definitely not skinny either. They have a knee-width of 23.75cm while the fatigues have 24cm, so I was guessing the fit would be the same, but maybe even baggier since they are 5 cm longer. Then I saw a video where a guy was snowboarding with them on (http://vimeo.com/44642346) and they just seem super skinny, which is not really what I want.

But I'm just afraid the 5cm extra from the anomie pants will just be too much?

Also, are there any popular brands here in Europe which have fits like both the fatigue and the anomie, so I could get some sort of idea about the fit?

Someone was telling me that the XL sizes have varied over the years. I know the 08/09 Xl was huge! I haven't got my jacket yet from this year but I hear it isn't as big

I think its a pretty standard shade of red, rather than a darker burgundy.

^ Thank you so much for those pictures !
It looks so dope on you!
But have been completely convinced to go with a XXL with my 6'3.

At the same time you are killing me saga .. I can probably see your suspenders being sold out while I wait for a (second) reply on my ticket. I know you do your best, and that it may take up to 48 hours.. but they are probably all been sold by then =/
And you can't combine orders and thereby refund the extra shipping can you?

Cheers

the above comment is correct. last years tubes and clavas were very thin and close to cotton like. this year theyre more of a poly material. probably not the best to keep you warm on some ice cold east coast days but will do better than last years.

theyre a bit longer. the reason they curled up last year wasnt because of the length it was because the material. the blend was heavier on the cotton side so when it got when and dried it wanted to shrink up. now that it is heavier on the poly side that wont occur.

Thanks a lot! I guess I have a ticket which doesn't need to be answered any more :)

Although, do you have any physical retailers in Copenhagen or Berlin? And are there European web-shops which sell saga?

Hey Grandur.. Where do you live ??
I don't know about Berlin.. but there is just open a danish (copenhagen ish) webshop that have Saga.. They are the first i Denmark anyways --> www.jiblab.dk.
Don't know if you can swing by though, or they have a showroom.. I don't think so.

Thanks! Wish also had fatigue's though :( I live in the middle of Denmark, so the shop is only a couple of hours from my house, but with bridge-fees it's going to cost me like 80$ just to get there...

This http://surf-ski.dk/da-DK/Vinter.aspx?GroupID=GROUP85 is my local ski-store, are there any pants here with a fit close to the anomie and fatigue?

Also, since the fatigue only has 2L, will it then be much colder (ie. is it a spring pant? Because I'd be wearing them skiing in the alps February/March) and less waterproof compared to the anomies?

even though the fatigue pant is 2L we never experienced any problems of being cold last season in our 2L pants. if youre going to go naked under your snow pants then you will be cold. but if you wear thermals or even shorts you should be fine.

Yeah, I always wear thermals/long johns, I was just worried it would be for "warmer" conditions.

Lastly, do you know any other popular brands here in Europe brands which have fits like the fatigue or anomie? Because there is a retailer here in Denmark, but as said, it would cast me about 80$ to get there.
