what kind of gear do you like

[jmag215]

hey everyone i am starting my own apparel company and was thinking of doing some outerwear. just wondering what everyone likes or don't like and what you like or dislike about the stuff! any info on your input would be great! maybe some free giveaways in the future. pics might be nice too!

good light weight gloves that keep your hands dry....

I know a lot of people really love KLIM gear, and I agree it is very nice stuff, however having some outerwear that isn't as expensive is very nice. Currently I wear some Slednecks Bomber jacket and pants, it was inexpensive in comparison to KLIM but has offered a pretty good degree of waterproofing and affordability.

Maneuverability of the Slednecks Bomber line is quite nice; when I wore the KLIM bib, the fabric felt quite stiff in comparison.

There's already a lot of great gear out there, so you have your work cut out for you.

There is a wide open niche though.........
If you make all of your garments in the USA I think many sledders would be willing to pay a modest premium as long as it is good stuff.

I love my Klim & Reima gear but I do want something with MADE IN THE USA on the label.

That's all fine, but please make sure you are not buying from a company that supports the anti-snowmobiling agenda.
And make sure they do not support the Sierra Club!

I see alot of Motofist this year.
I was surprised, because out of the 10 guys that I occasionally ride with, 100% of them wore Klim.
Now 90% of them have either a pair of gloves, jacket, or bibs that are Motofist, a few of them are equipped with the whole setup.

I wear Klim myself from boots to baclava (hjc helmet).
