Who commute in Ferraris...

Goddamn that site sells some insanely overpriced threads; $75 for a v neck!?!?

Shocker is, people actually buy thieir stuff?!!? Somethings are listed as sold out....

Best way to market a $650 jacket is to show a model going into a sewer.

Wow... 650?

If i had 650 and need a nice outerwear for camping i'd go to big5 and get a two nice windbreakers and a nice heavy down coat for 100dollars.

And spend the next 500 dollars on twinkies.

I spent $500 CAD on a Canada Goose duck down parka, but that's actually worth it, IMO, as it'll last a decade and keep me warm in -15C weather. $650 for essentially a fancy windbreaker is pushing it. Sort of reminds me of Patagonia's stuff, in terms of price.

CAD? Is that a fancy sweater also?

Brother is a big camping man, He has a 200 dollar sleeping bag that is 24hour water proof and is supposed to cycle fresh air so you can sleep with it over your head and not die lol...

Can we see a pictar of your coolio CAD? Sounds super fancy. Cannondale caad :D

CAD=CAnadian Dollars

I just ordered three.

I'll post a review shortly.




(But seriously... cotton?)

whats the guy running from?

Seems very badass hahaha. But I don't understand how the "black" is sold out?

I don't see how you could misunderstand my sentence even with a rudimentary grasp of English grammar.

I don't personally think Vancouver is cold enough for these, but chances are all the Asian kids have them anyway, eh Vixtor?

It's actually worth the cash though.

i'm going to buy an orion, but by the time i have the money for it i'll be looking at spring flowers.

i returned my ****ty buck30 jacket.

Merino is pricy though, and if it's good quality and well cut the shirt prices aren't far out there.

That jacket looks nice and I would hope it feels great wearing it, but $650 seems like a lot.

In terms of my cycling needs, I don't need any 650 dollar jacket.. I'd rather not have the restrictions of a winter jacket . Some think a 50 dollar base layer to be too expensive.. With my high tech base layer, I don't need a heavy winter jacket. I go out in cold down to the freezing point , that along with a light jacket works just fine.

I know, 650 seems a bit much, but this would make a nice addition to your kit.

I wish there was someone who could offer reasonably priced cycle specific gear.

His common sense.

Don't feel bad about spring flowers. I guarantee you'll be as perfectly comfortable wearing the Orion in a 65 degree spring rainstorm as you would a 15 degree blizzard.



I reiterate, though. The prospect of a jacket made of cotton being $650. Is crazy.

The prospect of a jacket made of cotton being $650. Is crazy.

But you see, it is made from Egyptian cotton, and as everyone knows Egypt is the land of the Pyramids of Giza, which have lasted thousands of years. Is it not then reasonable to assume that that jacket will also last thousands of years and serve to house your mummified corpse?

He has a 200 dollar sleeping bag that is 24hour water proof

what happens after 24 hours?

i wonder how many theyll sell.

****. now that i'm not poor it's sold out in my size in all colors.

"Rain shell . . . highly water resistant."

i.e. not waterproof. :roflmao2::roflmao2:

whats the guy running from?

Small arms fire.
And for the price, that jacket should resist it.

canada goose is nice but not ACTUALLY water proof. steven spielberg has one tho.

i kept $150 in my pocket over winter and bought the northface mcmurdo.

it is the furthest thing from water proof. even heavy/damp snow will mess it up, especially the stupid non-removable fur. but, it's warm and less gaudy than all the other expensive down jackets out there.

well the northface i mentioned above is hardly gaudy, and downfilled, and waterproof. mine is swamp green and the fur and the hood are removable. has headphone conduit from media pocket. etc etc. i think the canada goose is as silly as wearing prada running shoes.

Go to REI. If the item is too pricey, wait till it goes on sale. REI is the best for outdoor gear (except bicycles).

my $100 burton down jacket has been good to -50c. its taped and waterproofed, but if its that wet, you shouldnt need down anyway.

but if its that wet, you shouldnt need down anyway.

this.

yea i have a spiewak parka thats about 4 years old that is made of full synthetics and feels really thin like it would be horrible in the cold but its just as warm as my current northface and previous and its also like a scuba suit you could never get wet. holy **** run-on sentence.

I was looking for a deal on a mcmurdo this year but couldn't even find any in medium in Toronto. I've had a CG bomber for almost 5 years but I'm getting sick of it. I picked it up one boxing day at %50 off. There's no way I'd ever pay $500 for one of those.

i'll divulge a bit of a secret. i didnt save $150 on my mcmurdo - i didnt even pay for mine - i was just making the point that CG stuff is overhyped.
i didnt pay for my parka because my sister in law out in the bay area works for the company that owns northface, vans, jansport, etc... she sends me stuff all the time. i have lots of northface jackets, pants, thermal type stuff, +30 pairs of vans, knapsacks and travel bags.... even my kids are fully geared out in northface and vans. its def a bonus.

This is all way over priced, I wear a Gore pack lite windbreaker and a wool sweater to stay warm, unless your biking in weather below -30c/0f you don't need more than that, although if i paid retail for stuff i might find the Orion Jacket attractive.

a REAL ski jacket is a good choice as well, not too insulated, the only problem there is most of them are not as waterproof as goretex.

Sugoi makes nice waterproof riding jackets under 200




The mission Bosun wool jacket is more my thing....

Yall who pay "retail" for this nancy-boy **** are just dumb!

I wear an old canvas army field jacket and a trash bag poncho!

100% waterproof and windproof, and good to 20 below!
