We love interacting with and getting feedback from our customers. Virtika is the first and only company (that we know of) that allows customers to pick their outerwear colors for the upcoming season.

We just released our 2016 outerwear today on Facebook. We throw up a bunch of possibilities and let you vote on your favs, the pictures with the most likes will get made this summer. Pre-orders will begin in the next few weeks and we'll be shipping the outerwear you guys pick this fall.

https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.988208317880083.1073741834.504795626221357&type=1

We look forward to your feedback and another great season!

I understand what you're trying to say here, but you make it sound like Saga and North Face make people wear shitty colors.

The darker brown pants are pretty sick in my opinion.

Also a general piece of feedback would be for you to look into getting stronger bungee-like cinch up material in the hoods. Mine, and two of my buddies have snapped and we've had to tie it off. That's really the only thing that has bothered me with them, both my pants and jacket are awesome and would recommend!

Black jacket with white sleeves is getting too much hype. I rode a similar jacket and I really don't like the look when I'm riding.

i need some cheap new pants and i was looking at the ones currently on sale on the virtika site. i want the shell ones cause insulated ones are too warm, but it says they also don't have liners? what is the inside like, then? seems weird to take out the liners with the insulation..

Have you seen our Drought and Sultan pants this year? They are a little darker than what you might consider "khaki", but they are along the same lines..

Did you know all our Signature jackets have zip-off sleeves and become vests?

Oh shit i was under the impression that this years stuff was all sold out. I might have to pick up a pair for the summer. 99 bucks is too good to pass up, thanks!

We really stocked up on those tan pants, they were super popular. If you want the $99 deal, hurry, we're ending that deal VERY soon.

forget it i don't care, cheap pants are cheap pants.

the size guide is sick on the site, but can anyone give me some guidance beyond that? it looks like it runs really big, is a size Large pant plenty baggy for a 5'11" 165lb guy?

thanks

You should be good in the large unless you want them really baggy.

If I was you I'd do xl however large owuld be fine. My reasoning is that the big suspenders allow you to make it more or less baggy and you could choose.
