My Proposition To You, Jiberish

Hello Jiberish,

Recently I have been disappointed with your clothing and lack of skiing influence in everything that you do. Now, don't worry. This isn't going to be a bitch thread, however, I have a proposition. If you are wanting to rekindle my appreciation for your company, you must complete one simple task:

Create an edit with, but not limited to:

Clayton Vila
Sean Jordan
Tom Wallisch
Mike Hornbeck
Adam Delorme
Justin Norman

And use this song in at least part of it:



It's all you, Jiberish. If you're wanting to bring me and others back to your side, you will do this. I know you have it in you and you possess the necessary tools to make this happen.

Your move, Jiberish.

I was referring to sweatshirts, but yea that T-Shirt had it. But only 1 sweatshirt we have ever done had a skier on it. I doubt anyone gets it either so don't be bummed if you don't know.

Good stuff Jiberish, I understand where OP is coming from though.
I don't think Jiberish is going away from producing skiing related goods, I think they're just expanding more into other areas. As Pete said, they still make a ton of awesome hoodies and crews in steeeezy sizes

My response to Pete (pdrago):

First off, thanks for responding. Second, thanks for taking the time to make said post a quality post where you clearly thought out what you were going to say. It's refreshing to hear that you aren't parting away from skiing as some of us thought you were. Sticking to your roots is that shit I DO like. I'm not going to lie, I have not enjoyed your recent clothing line(s), however, knowing that skiing is still as important to you as it is to us is good enough for me.
Now, in the OP, I failed to mention that I do and always will understand the hectic schedules of your athletes or any athletes for that matter. You did still say that you will be producing some videos so is that a yes to my proposition or...?

Warmest regards,
danderson

they always were a fashion company. none of there clothes are meant for the level of outdoorness that skiing requires. they just make edits with skiers and drop their name at the end.


It might be slightly wrong on this, i just know they focus everyday clothes

Without skiing jiberish would not be half as successful as it is today. If you were a no skier would you know about jiberish? Chances are probably not. Jiberish is not straying from its skiing roots it's just making its clothing less shaped twords skiing and more for its newer market. I don't particularly like this but that's the way they are going plus they're still making dope edits so as long as they drop those a few times a season I'm happy.

I love jiberish and will continue to buy your hoodies but lets be honest the quality of the hoodies has gone down and prices stay the same.

However, much respect to Jiberish for replying to this thread. I'm not into the clothing at all, but it's nice see a company that does care what people think instead of taking this stupid "fuck the haters" attitude.

to pete:
You guys should keep doing what youre doing clothing wise. i understand that you guys need to make some money outside of skiing and i get the whole streetwear thing. one suggestion that i do have is that ONCE a year during winter..you guys release a drop of hoodies and crews that are skiing specific. I mean still have your normal clothing drops at regular intervals that include hoodies for streetwear or riding but once a year make some hoodies like the stuff from 09 and previous years. even if it is just 3 hoodies and 3 crewnecks.

Jiberish continuing to keep it real. You guys are holding it down in Boston. I have met Dave and Gabe and they are both extremely down to earth and still have the attitude of "trying to make it" in the "fashion/clothing" world.

Keep doing you, don't ever change!

perhaps your just a fucking midget. Im 6'0 and pretty skiing and an XL cham barely fits me arm length wise. and its regular length. my XL analog hoodie for school fits a little baggier than it

Ya man, jiberish is cut very small. I tried on my buddies 5xl flannel a couple years ago and it was tight around my body. Now mind you, i'm not skinny, at all, but any other companies 2xl even xl jackets fit better than that 5xl. Now, I think that was more just their sizing of that certain piece. I have a 2xl hoodie that fits like their 4xl crewneck and a 3xl hoodie that fits like their 4xl hoodie. They're all a little different but either way jiberish runs small, at least modern jiberish.

I'm no Jiberish expert, but I'd say they run tall, not small - do they not? The difference being that as sizes get bigger the products don't get nearly as wide as other brands but get a hell of a lot longer.

I think it also depends on the piece too. that 5xl flannel i wore went to my knees but was tight around my body. So yes, jibierish stuff tends to be tall and slimer, thats what I was refering to with my sizes, more the over size not just the length.

Yeah, this season's Jiberish line fits especially small, and a lot less tall than in the past. I got a couple 4x hoodies and a 4x jacket and the length is barely past mid thigh, I'm also 6' 250 pounds....

i just wish jiberish would make their sleeves longer on each size. the body on medium's are too long while the sleeves and width are perfect
