I'm going to buy a new jacket next season and if I really get it, it would be so sick.
The company is actually orientated towards ski touring, jogging, triathlon, biking,.... (you get the idea). But they started local and still do their best to produce locally. They put out quality stuff and they are not your average faceless big name company. The Jacket has 20k waterproof and 20k breathability. It is insulated with Primaloft. My mother has one and it's warm as fuck, really comfortable and what not. Only downside is that there's no snow skirt

The cheapest outerwear i find is my favorite. Getting wet is just something i accept when i screw around and fall.

Well I prefer Saga. I like how it fits. I like baggy ski gear, not just because I like how it looks, but also cause I feel there is better maneuverability with the bagginess. I love the way Saga's outerwear fits...

... and perhaps it looks pretty sick too.

spyder killer suit from 2008 in blue. I had the pants and sold them like an IDIOT...

I wouldn't want it now unless it was minty... but, best outerwear ever.

Whatever those pink Saga pants from like 09 were called, they had one big black pocket on the knee. Also the G-suit and Magic suit were always classics.

FIRST DROP, ANY TYPE OF FIRST DROP I DONT CARE WHAT IT IS, WHAT AS LONG AS ITS XXXLT. THEIR QUALITY IS SUPERB AND THEIR COLORS WAYS SCREAM INNOVATIVE AND UNIQUE. PLUS, WITH SOMEONE LIKE DAVID LESH, THE LEAST SCUMMY PERSON I CAN THINK OF RIGHT NOW AT THIS VERY MOMENT, REPPING THE PRODUCT HOW CAN YOU LOSE? I HEAR HE PERSONALLY DEALS WITH ALL CUSTOMER RELATIONS.
