2007 Holden Outerwear

[Parker669]

I don't know how many of you guys are familiar with this company, but their new line is pretty unreal. Thought some of you would like to see it before you make all your winter purchases.

Holden's sick - I got the Highland jacket for shredding this season. Definitely the most fashion-forward outerwear brand in terms of fits. The first brand to really start making slim pants for riding.

[1M]

yup always come correct with clean subtle designs compared to the the over the top of the usual snow wear in the industry.

i think their last season's line was better though

[doctorgnar]

They've still got a ways to go in terms of quality, but this season is by far the best they've done yet when it comes to materials and constructions.

[n0cturnal]

The Highland jacket is very good looking, I'm eyeing it right now. I just need to get my funds in order first. Where do you ride?

[Guest]

i've got the dealer catalogue in pdf

not sure how to uplod'

werd where does everyone ride? ever @ blue moutnain fucking give me a call bitchesz

[KFC ONE]

I got the DL jacket from last season that I'm debating whether or not to keep.

I got a medium and it is far to long in my opinion (I'm 5' 9") but others say it looks good. I wish I could have tried it on to see if I needed to size down.

Fabric and detailing is real nice though.

[Swych]

yeah i have some crazy hempy material jacket but its not the most waterproof of jackets. i'd use it for light snow but nothing like deep powder.

the best part is their snowboard suit idea man. i love the wya the bottoms zip up to the jackets so nothing gets in the butt.

What? I'd say that every brand in the industry does this. Not specific to Holden at all.

Anyway, I live in the City right now, so I ride So. VT a lot - Stratton, Snow, Stowe - and Mountain Creek, NJ for mid-week and night sessions. But at this point it's almost easier for me to fly to Denver than drive up there, so I probably ride Summit County - mostly Brek, Keystone and Vail - more than anywhere.

The Creek is blowing up this year, by the way, watch out. Biggest park in the east.

is there a place to check out holden outerwear in nyc?

[hysteric]

Nice designs but sometimes impractical for actual snowboarding, i dont really like the tight bootcut, straight or baggy looks much better IMO, and western canadian rockies for the win:p

really? i hadn't shopped for outerwear for a while now but i walked by the burton store and they certainly didnt have it.

what do you think of hte materials man? are they waterproof enough you think? i always get damp spots around the top of my trousers and aroudn the knee areas. it dosent seem as waterproof as typical snowboard jacket material.

there's a dealer locator on teh holden website.

[Guest]

hahaha man i have owned many burton jackets, they definitly have it

it's called a snow skirt, literally every snowboard jacket has it

thanks. just found it. paragon was going to be my first guess anyways.

the tight and super fitted is not for snowboarding, i dunno how anyone can ride like that.

I agree with this.

I always see people riding in some tight jacket/pants and shit looks ridiculous. I always ride with most my shit baggy, my comfort zone is way up there.

cool, now I remember reading that post during the summer. can't wait!!!

[Swych]

hahaha man i have owned many burton jackets, they definitly have it

the holden jackets have a zip on the trousers that attach it directly to the jacket. the storm skirt is only a tighet elastic band that wraps around, and has some loose velcro bits that buckle onto the belt strap. its not as secure as the zip system.

i know volcom has it too, but with waterproof zips.

[soundbomber]

On my Burton jackets the storm skirts have velcro, hook and button attachment. It's all you really need. I don't think a zip system is crucial unless you fall on your ass alot.

Most people who ride often can go a whole day without their underlayers getting wet.

[doctorgnar]

Whatever, everyone bitched and said the same thing about skateboarding. Now look where it's at. Snowboard style with tight pants can look dope, plenty of kids do it right.

Tight pants, wide stance. Right?

It is getting a little irritating and over the top, but still better than SLC gangster steeze.

And,

Lots of people in the new MD People flick. First trick...

[doctorgnar]

I also think that the Airblaster Sasquatch line looks kind of rad, with the lacing up the sides.

Sorry for the stupid pic.

leave the butthugger wear for the streets. keep it baggy for the powder. ride quicksilver or billabong. fuck!

[knucks]

I like my shit baggy when riding. I have some 686 Smarty LowRider pants that have a denim look to em, even have a patch. haha
