Is Saga Done?

driftsSince you mentioned small collections I think occasionally releasing small collections of limited run stuff would be pretty cool, like a premium in house made version of the shirt jacket or something

msander9first of all cool guy, you very specifically said "were going to be focused on reworking with the materials we have, like better cuts, blah blah" which is VERY MUCH NOT "were gonna release the same bullshit" and how do you have black friday numbers already you dont have a brick and mortar store. meaning your accountants would wait until the end of cyber monday... today, before processing your total sales. which would still be rough SKU numbers, not gross or net sale figures. youre dumb 1.

also, the homie legit says:


i cant anymore. if that saga account isnt a bot, then we are all interacting with the lowest functioning extra-chromosome boomer on earth... how in THE FUCK do you misinterpret this as "i want the insulated flannel you make"

HE WANTS TO SEE YOU MAKE SPECIAL EDITIONS OF THIS FUCKING JACKET. EVERYBODY ELSE UNDERSTOOD IT. youre dumb 2.

you keep spinning that PR bot as your reputation gets DVDA'd by Mandingo & Co.

im sure you'll draft up some shit and 4 other oddly random "support the homies" 11 year olds will be right there with you. but i feel good saying im pretty close to a day 1 rider on some pb&j full suit kit shit... and you dont speak for core skiing anymore.

Saga.I don't want to sound rude but this comment shows how little you know about ecommerce and that you have obviously never logged into a Shopify account. How do you think ecommerce businesses are able to be successful if they have to wait multiple days for information on sales and traffic? Online sales platforms process this data in realtime so businesses can make changes instantly.

Young_pattysaga is on its decline and may become a white bread outerwear company like dakine but that’s just life.

Saga.Only time will tell. Personally I think this pandemic period is going to be beneficial to Saga. It's allowed us to slow things down and work on the infrastructure issues that plagued us in the past.

What brand(s) do you consider to not be "white bread"? Or what are they doing that makes them better? I don't mind that you're throwing shade our way, to each their own. But I think it will benefit this website and skiing in general more if you use your opinions to try and bring up ski brands instead of shoot them down and offer no advice.

Thoughts, feelings and input from this community are always valued.

Saga.New site and Winter line is scheduled to be available and shipping next week. There are more than enough threads and responses, both public and private with customers and fans, you can read about the trouble of the last 16 or so months so I won't go into that again here. Just know we had an extremely rough go of it last year. We tried and, are still trying, to resolve customer issues. We have been in contact with people as often as possible.

We hope this whole mess will soon be a bad memory.

Young_pattyUrban dictionary definition:


whitebread
Belonging to the class of bland, clean-cut, middle-of-the-road suburbanite breeders. The Cleavers from the old TV show "Leave It To Beaver" are a familiar archetype of whitebread culture. Compare to yuppie.

The term implies profound cultural naïvete, blind consumerism, and an unquestioning "follower" mindset. Common trappings of the whitebread lifestyle include golf, Kenny G and Enya CDs, SUVs, an irrational fixation on lawn care, Golden Retrievers, nominally Christian religious beliefs, Old Navy clothing, moderate to conservative political views, bad Chardonnay, equally bad espresso, cookie-cutter houses, Bath & Body Works hygiene products, and very white-collar employment.

Though whitebread individuals are usually white, the term is not necessarily racial in meaning - the implication lies more with the blandness, predictability, and banality of plain white bread. Accordingly, "wonderbread" is often used as a synonym.
I'll bet the amount of money that whitebread neighborhood spends on lawn fertilizer could feed a small African nation.

Saga.Thank you for linking this definition. However I asked what brands do you consider to not be "white bread". I am well aware of the leave it to Beaver, Dennis the menace, white picket fence consumerist definition. I was hoping you could provide us all with a little more depth than simply copy and pasting something from someone else on the internet.

Put some time and thought into it. What brands have not, or currently don't, fall under your definition of "white bread".

Young_pattyOff the top of my head I’d say burton, quicksilver, Dakine, black diamond, under armor, O’Neill, air blaster, planks etc.

Brands you find in most big box stores, brands that fade into the background, brands that don’t do much to stand out, brands that all market to jerries/ the wealthy
brands that make the same shit every year
brands that don’t grow or change over time

I can get you a better response at a later time but it’s me friends b-day so I don’t have a ton of time tonight.

Young_pattySuper based bag’o’tricks post tbh.

Thread is old af but I hope y’all are finally at the “acceptance” state of grief by now, saga is on its decline and may become a white bread outerwear company like dakine but that’s just life.

Saga.I look forward to your next response. Especially because I asked what brands you consider to NOT be white bread.

As it seems you listed brands you consider to be white bread I'd like to address the comment nonetheless.

How are you going to say Burton is white bread. Let's just start there. That brand has done more for the growth of snowsports both in participation and technology than any other brand on snow. No question. Every several years they invest more money into a youth/am program than anyone else (un inc, nobody, etc).

O'Neill seems to have completely reinvented themselves in the last few years. A completely revamped team and quite a few jacket and pant styles that are quite sick.

Airblaster, really? This company started out making leg bags and is now one of the more prominent and progressive outerwear brands in snowboarding.

As for the others, I don't often interact with their brands or products. Therefore I can't speak to them.

In general it feels like you're putting brands into categories based off their most popular or prominent products. This is easy to do. These products and the marketing associated with them are designed to appeal to the mass market. Aka white bread. That by no means should lead you to believe that is how the brand is across the board. All that should really tell you is that that brand is strategic with how they market their products and that you have been slotted into the ad delivery category that will be shown the more generic products and ads.

animatorDude just thinks he’s “core” cuz he only wears “core” brands and rides “core” skis

Pachankzis any of the product on your site new for this season or are you trying to clear old back stock first before developing a new line ?

BagOTricksIdek what based means to be honest with you, maybe I'm getting old

Saga answered every question I had and that's all that matters to me. I couldn't name you a "white bread" outerwear company that would be willing to reply to NS and deal with the bullshit in this thread so I think that ruins your argument.

I get Saga isn't making t-shirts with titties on 'em or mushrooms or whatever else those "core" people seem to love, but imo they're still top dog when it comes to freestyle outerwear and unlike other companies (Jiberish comes to mind) they haven't seemed to waver from that. Loved Saga gear in 2010 and still love it now.

Props to the @Saga. rep that's been crushing this thread!

Young_pattyBro you are based af

OregonDeadSince you requested some non white bread examples https://lizardstuff.bigcartel.com/


and even https://mutedltd.com/

GrandThingsI'd argue that the Muted stuff is pretty standard/white bread (screenprinted hoodies, & anoraks?)

But this Lizard brand is fucking dope, really like the look of this stuff. What's the story behind this brand. I've never heard of em?

OregonDeadSAGA from TJ Maxx or Marshals for sure.

OregonDead@Saga. white bread brands are the ones my parents buy at TJ Maxx and Costco. My Spyder sweater was a gift and came from Costco. SAGA from TJ Maxx or Marshals for sure. These are the brands boomers are buying as gifts. Nothing wrong with it and that is why you sold to China so you can actually market to mass appeal like white bread and make money.

Since you requested some non white bread examples https://lizardstuff.bigcartel.com/



and even https://mutedltd.com/

but those guys probably don’t make money and probably won’t be able to sell their brand to China.

It’s all good. I like a little white bread sometimes

BagOTricksSo I was on Evo and found Saga gear for the low, and remembered that Saga went through that whole robbery ordeal and then stopped sending people their orders. Curious to see if there had been any updates, I went to their website to find it as a static page saying this years line is coming soon. Their Insta looks like they are dropping the new line this month, but I find it strange you can't get to their webstore at all.

Is Saga done? Has there been any announcements or anything that I missed? Did the people who ordered shit ever get it? If not, were they refunded?

Any and all info on Saga is appreciated. For a brand I love to wear, I want to try to understand exactly what's going on behind the scenes.

BagOTricksSolid argument there.

Young_pattybro you don’t even know what you’re talking about ffs- idk if saga puts you on like that Chinese clone goggle company does but your ignorance towards them and skiing is astounding.


Saga I don’t really have much else to say, you don’t actually care about what I have to say you’re just desperately trying to prove you aren’t whitebread. Just keep going by the data/numbers and whatever that bag’o’tricks YouTuber yahoo you sponsor suggests- seems to be working for y’all anyways. I stopped buying your stuff years ago so idc which direction y’all go anyways.
