if anyone has castle please let me know what you think.
I've been riding with my swtch jacket and pants for 2 years now. I like the gear alot, but did have an issue with the durability of the material. I called them out on it after a year of riding and the fully replaced both the pants and the jacket. Great company to work with, but the material tears easy. Hope this helps.
I have castlex snowpants, and they have a very durable material, but if your seat is wet for most the day, you can be sure your butt will be soaked. but they were very warm, my legs never once got cold
My Switch jacket was alright.... the zippers are CRAP! My switch Pants always left by rearend wet........
I would pass on the gear.

I have the Nightmare switch Jacket and pants. Just got the pants, but rode with the jacket and just LOVE it. There is no way I can see how anyone would call the materal weak. Mine it really strong stuff. If it ripped I would be in shock. Very strong warm gear. would never look at anything else
I bought Swith gear last season, i love this i'd say best pants(bibs) i have ever owned, jacket is very warm and agree from above dont breath that wel but comfortable to ride in and warm when ya need it! Will buy again!!!
Just don't get the gloves. I was drying mine on a heat register overnight, and they were still wet inside. No breathability whatsoever. then they start smelling... yes smelly gloves...
Pure garbage.
