after seeing my buddies toes on thier new SUPER klim boots, i'll pass, kick the snow a couple of times and the rubber coating starts to come off...

Glad I bought HMK Highmark boots then.

I run Arcteryx bibs with 3 layer gortex, they are pricey but they have a no questions asked warranty for life and if you get a tear they will fix for really cheap. Had my pants for coming up on 6 seasons of ice climbing here in AK and MT and 3 seasons on the sled with skiing in between and I have never been wet and the product always works. I put in 100 days a year on the ski's and 40 to 50 on the sled and to say the least I don't wear anything else.

I loved my HMK boots but they did not hold up well. The just seemed to break down very fast. HMK was amazing to deal with though when I sent them back

i have klim boots and gloves and they are amazing. Not a single problem. Bought a Jacket this year and hopeing for bibs i love klim no doubt in my mind that they are the best

I have the Valdez Jacket, Powerxross gloves, inferno base layer and free ride pants. Awesome gear and I'm always dry at the end of the day except for the gloves. My only beef with Klim is that they sent everything to be made in China. What happened to making this stuff in the good ol' USA? Is there even any sled gear made in the States or Canada anymore?

Exactly, doesn't anyone make high end cloths here?

If they did, i buy it!!

Has anyone seen the new Klim tog gloves. $180 a pair...wth? i know that's retail, but that highway robbery....do they think we're CRAZY?

Tog gloves are 100/pair. The Summit ones are 170.

I have been using Klim for years now. Just sent in a coat that was 7 years old with the velcro on the zipper flap coming loose and a pair of 5 year old bibs that started to get wet in the butt area. Bibs were replaced with new and the coat repaired all for free! I can't think of another company that would do that after that many years of use. Bought a pair of Polaris boots once and the first trip I had one wet foot before leaving the parking lot, took 6 months to get my money back.

I do hate their gloves they dont last long. Never tried warranty on them.
