like a Snojet. TOBE clothing will increase in value over time. get it while you can.
:D woohoo, my retirement fund is set for sure!!!

Josh - you know we luv and support you and Michelle no matter what venture you doo. Can't wait to see what it's gonna be and how I can help. With your drive and creativity and her common sense and grounding ways it can be nothing but successfull! :p
 
:( It's too bad. I had just got my first outfit and it is the best gear EVER! And I might try to get more. I do have a few questions though.

- I fell off my sled, and snagged two places where its stiched. Should I just have my mom hit it with the sewing machine or....?

You can send it to us and we can get it fixed but since it was "user error" there will be a charge. Plus you will lose out on shipping. Have your mom fix it if she can and buy the NikWax wash and treatment to get it resealed up. Sorry about your bad luck. I did the same thing friday on my running board.

- Also in the same incident, my track layed a fat patch of rubber down on my ***. Is there some way to take the rubber off without harming the material?

Maybe the Nik Wax Tekwash, otherwise just let it wear off. Your pride will heal eventually. ;)

-Can you still get iPod controllers for the jacket's with the velcro patch? Also wasn't the helmet ran wirelessly?

We only have two controllers left for sale. They are on ebay here. The helmet is not wireless.

- And my main question. Does this mean Polaris will be discontinueing their eVent line? I read somewhere that ToBe made and designed that line of gear for them. Hopefully Polaris will be able to fund keeping that part of boat floating.

TOBE has no connection tot he Polaris eVent line. TOBE made some Dragon gear for Polaris last winter but it was only available in Scandinavia. TOBE never got anything going with Polaris USA despite their efforts.

I wish you and ToBe the best in the future. Maybe they will return to the market someday.
Thanks.
 
Thanks Sawyer!

Tammy, I feel your pain with Micke. Even when things were functioning "normaly" with TOBE it was hard to get him to do what he said, and when he did it was always late. And Thank you.

Todd, you're the man.

Kevan, Thank you very much for all your support. I would loan you my sled any day of the week (that I wasn't using it) hehe.

Scott, Matt, Andrew, Mini, Dusty, Brandy, Geoff, Brad, Jodie and everyone else... thank you SO much for everything. The snowmobiling community is awesome and I thank you all for your help, advice, and support over the last few seasons. I won't forget it.
 
Sooo bummed!

ToBe is/was great stuff...I am really bummed that I won't be adding to my collection anymore :(
Josh, you will do great in whatever venture you chose! I look forward to seeing what's next....you know Scott and I will be supportive! :D
Thanks for the gear this weekend....I would have bought more if it were in my sizes....:P
By the way, it was great to meet your wife! What a neat lady!
 
i just checked the Snowmobile Industrial Average SIA....it's like the stock market. Just since this post was started the valve of the average TOBE garment has risen 10.37%. Due the the limited simply of the goods.
 
Sorry to hear this Josh. I hope you pick up another great franchise soon.

I love the jacket I got at the Boise show this fall...great comfort, quality, does what it is supposed to, and it looks damn good! Function AND form - what a concept! And it's going UP in value as I sit here and type. Awesome!
 
Sizes???

So I was gonna buy up a couple things and was just wondering if the shirts and sweatshirts fit like the jackets. About a size larger than marked. If so I'll be buying more stuff so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Also I was wondering if that was all you had for things in a size Large. I would need a Large in the pants/bibs but I could slip into a Medium jacket 'cause my Large is pretty baggy. Thanx for the info. Oh, and if I were to be totally frivalous about buying all that stuff I would get over $1,100 bucks worth. Are there other places you know of that might have more gear? I love this stuff and would like to say I'm bummed about the misfortune again. :devil:
 
Hi SnoDmon,
The hoodies fit pretty true to size. The zip up hoodies fit little big but not much. The T-shirts don't fit big at all.

There won't be any more T's or sweatshirts added to ebay but I do have some sales samples in outerwear that will be added. They are all larges. I hope to add them all today. Thanks,
josh
 
Just wanted to say thanks to Josh for great service once again. made a multile order on ebay the other night. the next day i get an email saying i was charged too much on the combined shipping, and they were throwin in some extra goodies. i was pleasantly suprised, i would have never known the difference and was expecting a couple stickers. package showed up today with my order plus a beanie, 2 big sheets of stickers and a couple other things. im sure above and beyond the cost difference of the shipping. it has been a pleasure doing business with you. hope you find another direction in the industry so more people have the pleasure of dealin with a great guy. arent many companies with that kind of service.

thanks again

Tim
 
I bought a ToBe Avalanche jacket in Cooke City 2 years ago at New Year's, i am not gentle with any article of clothing, spill gas, oil, wipe greasey hands on it, it still looks like the day i bought it. I love the jacket, i would have bought pants, but they don't make a tall size.
I am 6'6", 245lbs, wear a Teck Vest underneath the jacket, and it is size XL.
The thing i like most about it is, the looooong sleeves. As a larger than normal guy, sleeves are usually an issue with me.
My problem is there is nothing wrong with my jacket now, but i will probably buy another one, leave it hanging in the closet until this one wears out....which i don't see anytime in the near future! I guess it might be hanging in the closet and i can sell it on ebay in 20 yrs as retro clothing LOL.
Good luck with your future endeavors Josh.
 
hmm.. a very disturbing post.

tobe Technology is still running and dont let anyone tell you different.
Josh made his own decision to leave us in the middle of the season and that is his choice.
