New suit fell apart in 7 days - what to buy now?

[Blk88GT]

The suit I got at the beginning of the year is done already. It lasted 7 days.

What should I buy? I don't care about cost. Fit, durability and functionality are what's important to me. I don't want anything heavy. I need something that is light and allows me to move around without making me tired.

Any suggestions? I was looking at the Klim stuff but don't know what jacket to go with? No pullovers! Gotta order it today.

Klim Valdez Jacket and Tog Bibs

i bought klim this year. tomahawk and extreme bibs. plan on buying a base and mid layer if you want to stay warm. they are nothing but a water proof shell. not very wind resistent either

KLIM all the way. Klimate jacket, tog bigs, tog gloves, adrenaline boots, balaclava. Heard there helmets rock as well.

I was thinking the Valdez jacket and Free Ride pants. I don't want bibs!

 

[Blu Du]

Look at the extreme bibs. No front just a back to keep snow out of pants

I've got the freeride pants and the rock have yet to get wet or cold in them.

Ian-

sorry i missed you guys last week. Klim gear is by far the best i have ever used. Valdez coat with Togwotee bibs and radium boots. i know you said that you don't want bibs but these are the unusually comfortable. if money really is no object, you won't be disappointed with Klim. i have never been cold or wet since i spent the extra coin on this gear. excellent products, warranty and customer service. plus, they are located right here in idaho.

Actually I own the extreme bibs, low front high back.....love them. Spent the night out a few weeks back and stayed nice and dry to warm.

HMK Gambler series. It is available in brown tweed, black, or white. I have had great luck with mine. This is my second year. Been in snow, rain, freezing rain(I ride in Seattle!!!). Been great every time.

I have the Free Ride pants and had to put suspenders on them to keep them up. If you wear a chest protector do not go with the Towg bibs, way to hot IMO.

I would go with the Extreme bibs if I had to do it over again.

Check out Ebay, there are some Killer Deals on Klim right now.

Thanks guys. I got the stuff coming in, should be here in the next few days. I went with the Free Ride pants and Valdez jacket. The prices I found were all over the place. I managed to get the pants for $335 CAN shipped with taxes and the jacket for $450 CAN shipped with taxes

Hopefully my *** crack doesn't hang out like Mike is suggesting, or I'll be the next caption contest in the lounge!
