    3 layer Goretex softshell Made in Colorado Freeride Systems - Fulsus USA

    Hello maggot collective ! New Fall jackets coming off the line in Colorado...

    We have a limited number of these lightweight 3 Layer Goretex hybrid softshell windproof, waterproof highly breathable seam sealed, 6 pocket hoodless Fremont II Jackets in Forest Green on special for maggot collective. These jackets are made in Colorado USA. New lower collar than last years Fremont makes for nice casual jacket that will shield you against the elements and require minimal layering for warmth = less bulk. Same great fabric as our new and about to launch Antero II Hooded jackets. Also, stay tuned for some great Polartec base layers and mid layer hoodies coming soon. We had Fall Polartec 200 DWR Hoodies but sold out this summer !!?? We don't sew hundreds of thousands of garments and dump on market. We sew small runs. You may or may not see the same style again.

    Fremont II Regular price will be about $225-280. For maggots: $165 for short term initial launch of about a week. We do the opposite of most large brands by reducing our prices for new season jackets in the Fall when you need a jacket the most. We also sew in the USA and even use made in USA Goretex seam taping machines !

    Fulsus USA is our trademarked brand for our ABC Worldwide News Contract. Fulsus is short for "full suspension" of the elements. Company built by maggot for maggots. Stay tuned for our announcement of freeride systems transition from small time webbing sewing outfit in Leadville Colorado to ABC News Worldwide outerwear contract supplier. Start watching ABC National News for a glimpse of the new Antero II being worn by their on air talent... Boom !

    Congrats on the contract Micol. I bought some of your Prospect Pants on clearance this fall and they are some of the best fitting pants I've ever had. That is including custom tailored wool dress pants.

    You guys doing a run of bibs again this year?

    Quick question: I thought Goretex didn't need DWR applications to maintain waterproofness? The description on your website suggests otherwise.

    Also, will you ship to Canada?
    Goal: ski in the 2018/19 season

    DWR and waterproof membranes work together - DWR keeps rain/snow from soaking in to the face fabric and keeps the material breathable.

    Do you have a weight on the jacket? Also, how would you describe the fit? Loose? Athletic?

    Fulsus?

    What happened to Freeride Systems? Too sporty for clients like ABC, maybe?

    Who's the kook on the webpage?
    I didn't believe in reincarnation when I was your age either.

    Nice looking jacket. Kudos for making one w/out a hood.

    Thank you !

    Not going to do pants this year except made to measure.
    the tech talk thread bout killed me last year. I got neck deep into
    this abc thing starting in January and it has eaten up gobs of time.
    Finally starting to get some people on board to help me out so
    pants could pop up later this winter, just depends how things go.

    You know how those corp types can be. Many think "freeride" = obama
    Not really Abc but others...

    Who is that Guy??? He's going to be semi famous
    because just one 30 min evening news segment gets 8,000,000 viewers and I have
    shots appearing 24 hours a day driving people to the Fulsus USA website. That pic will rotate
    in and out with real screen shots from abc soon. You gonna be a star ! But, no, really I'm serious
    20 million people or more can see that picture a month. You gonna be a star !!

    Freeride Systems and its site are not going anywhere. However, I am leaning toward making
    it my premium brand with a finite limited number of garments a year mixed with some custom work
    with premium prices.....premium prices except for the maggots getting the maggot discounts.
    This whole thing started here. I be loyal.

    similar, but lower collar. This thing you can sport around town much easier than
    last years. cut is very close to same.

    I know you touched on it a bit in previous responses, but do you have a length size chart?
    Before anyone asks, I'm not an NS park kid asking zip length. I'm 6'8" and relatively skinny it's hard to find a nice jacket that fits length wise and that isn't made for a hippo. Neck to wrist is tough because I have bigger shoulders and longer arms and obviously torso is a length to width issue. If you make tall sizes I will be forever grateful.

    ^ Thanks, just got home myself to 39 deg...feels good! hope you get some cold soon

    ^^ I'm cutting a jacket for a former college basket ball player in the next couple of months. His shoulder to wrist is 32" You sound similar. maybe taller. Just measured the size large Im wearing and center of neckline to end of cuff is 36" bottom of neck to bottom of jacket is 30"

    You would need to send me email through contact on website and give me some measurements. Im making the b-ball guy Kirk an Antero winter jacket because I will be cutting a private label job in a few weeks and going to throw his size in. maybe i can just mirror his and cut 2. send me the measurements and I will compare / contrast

    Just chiming in to add to the demand for tall sizes. Also you can put me down for a pair of MTM pants when that goes down. Hard to find a 36"+ inseam on pants that don't suck.

    I'll add that I've talked to a couple folks interested in tall sizes too.
