Every season we receive a ton of feedback and revise our custom products accordingly – tweaking styles, designing new features and always trying to make our products better for our customers.

For 2016 I’m excited to share with you our newest customizable ski & snowboard gear featuring fresh new 20k fabric colors, KEE waterproof zippers, standard pass pockets and an optional powder skirt feature.

Check it out here > https://www.newschoolers.com/news/read/See-2016-Northwest-Tech-Gear

This coming fall we’ll be revealing our biggest change to date, something I can say we’ve been working on for years – stay tuned!

As always if you have any questions just shout – we’ll do our best to respond right away.

Our 2016 custom gear and new colors are currently available on through our website at nwt3k.com/customize

The upcoming announcement is not going to change the current product. However, it will change where you are able to find and see our custom gear in the future.

Let us know if you have any other questions.

ive been playing with the customizer the last few nights, so hard to decide! the new colors are amazing

2 questions...

I like my kit baggy, but im also somewhat skinny build. If I get a kit it would probably be L/XL. Spending ~800$ on a kit ofc I want a particular fit. If I were to go XL and its too baggy (or L and too small), what happens? Shit out of luck?

Also, why only 6 zip colors? are certain colors sold-out or just those are the only available?

Hey thanks for the questions.

First and foremost ensure you've taken all the correct sizing measurements listed on this page > http://nwt3k.com/outerwear/sizing


Additionally, no, you're not shit out of luck. We offer a 100% satisfaction on all custom orders - either you're completely stoked on your new custom gear or you can return it back to us for a full refund. Obviously we want to ensure you're ordering the correct size before we make your custom gear so we're happy to work with you through this process. We'll require all sizing measurements listed on our sizing page before beginning production on your custom gear.

We switched to KEE zippers this year (a higher-quality waterproof zipper than previous years) and are offering them in 6 colors.

Let us know if you have any other questions.

Cheers!

Great feedback - thanks!

Probably not something we'll add to this specific bib. However future designs will incorporate this feedback.

Thanks!
