We sell the hell out of jackets. However, because we are making so many these days, our production labor cost has dropped. Consequently we have passed these savings on to you. You will find many of our jackets with lower prices, some 10% or more over previous years. We only have so much stock and will not be able to sew/seam tape again till later this Spring, as we are buried with bulk private uniform projects and orders for corporate customers. So, if you see something today on our website...buy it, or start the trade for it, because history has proven that most likely it will be gone sooner than later and not replaced by the time you need it...
10th Annual FREERIDE SYSTEMS THREADS FOR SHREDS JACKET TRADE IN PROGRAM up to $200
Threads for Shreds background, Jacket Making in Colorado, and TGR founding (reprint from last year with some edit):
Hello all. I started this program and company 10 ski seasons ago (2010) as a way to help gain some traction for unique made in Colorado ski jackets. I looked at some of those jackets today and realize that we have come a long way from pretty humble beginnings. The company started with a piece of webbing that I cobbled together with a plastic sewing machine bought in Silverthorne, Colorado. I made a "system" for "freeride" a simple strap carry system that made accessing inbounds "hike to" terrain easier as I was trying to cut down on exposed days in the back country. Today we offer fully seam taped premium branded fabric (mostly Polartec Neoshell) jackets made in Colorado and serve customers from ABC News Worldwide to the Colorado Avalanche Information Center, SAR teams, ski patrols, etc. to skiers that care about how and where their garments are made as well as many commercial customers. Freeride Systems started on these forums and with some local Lake and Summit County ski shops and after I had been a member for several years. And, I am still active here today. I thank TGR maggots,and the hard work and persistence from my team for the good fortune that followed. No other brands do what we do making in this State. Each jacket receives a licensed "Made in Colorado" 1" embroidered seal on the arm. None of our competitors making a comparable product can do this... You are here, you are special, so are our jackets.....Thank you ! Mike
