stocking up on too much FD seems like a decent idea.

Yes. From my friends, all of their stuff has fallen apart in 1 season, only skiing 30-45 days a year. I have heard of a very select few things staying in shape, so hope you get lucky and have some shit that wont fall apart. Also, zippers tend to break all the time.

I sent in a SASE and got a couple of stickers and a coupon for 20 % off. Like many companies dont do that. Would first drop? No, because david lesh is an asshole.

Although this was not the case when FD began, the quality of our gear now is on par with the best outerwear in the world. We stand behind our products with a one year warranty. Be careful not to just jump on the hate-wagon...

Jesus why the hell don't you kids who hate on FD so much just fuck off. Why the hell do you have to put a kid down just because he got a jacket that he liked. It might not be the best shit out there but its not as bad as everyone says. Seriously its fucking annoying listening to all you dumb asses, just fuck off.

Don't listen to all these kids hating on FD. It's just that their own self esteem is so incredibly low, that they seek some sort of e-praise from someone they'll never actually talk to in real life, just to make themselves feel better for a few seconds.

I had a FD jacket and pants all last season, and absolutely loved it. Zero rips or tears, all zippers perfectly intact, warm, VERY water resistant, and I loved the design of it.

i bought a fd suit for last season and i can say that although a zipper did break, i sent it in and they repaired it free of charge, threw in a set of red sleeves for free along with a balaclava and bandana. seems pretty legit, and i got lots of compliments on my jacket and pants. super warm too. the only things i disliked, they fixed this year so i plan on buying another suit when the one ii have is completely destroyed.
