Back to the Basics // Jiberish

i love the direction that Jiberish is heading in. Their newer stuff looks so much better for street wear. Why not hold on to some older pieces for skiing, and buy new stuff for street wear?
 
They are a company trying to make the most money as possible by following the most popular trends. The older pieces are cool but they are dated and childish. Their new stuff is more grown up to compete with companies like supreme, diamond, etc. Whether they reach the caliber as the other successful companies or not they are still a brand that was brought up in the ski/snowboard industry and they will not forget their roots. And to what people on the mountain are wearing now is not the old loud shit it is more grown up and more fitted.

You guys are not growing up and that is not a problem but the rest of the industry is and Jiberish is trying to keep up.
 
It's called the fast fashion market for a reason

I dig their stuff, just hope to never see it in zumies

Back when skiing was cool. I called this so long ago and no one listened. I said this was the shit. I said this skiing was the fucking shit. This was back when we had fun and made creative edits. Now it's the same bullshit. Fuck skiing.

so much nostalgia man, i mean i probably wouldnt buy or wear any of the old stuff now, but i remember how hyped i was on everything back in the day. aristocrat, ignant vest, wedges, jungle cat, mojave, royally fitted, the rugbys, the fucking iron face, hatchman everything was so sick.
 
I love the new Jiberish line, as someone who has never really followed the trends and fashion of skiing I can't connect with the nostalgia some of NS feels towards Jiberish. Although there is nothing wrong with expanding your brand towards a more orientated fashion market. Jiberish will always have their roots in skiing and that is something that will never change.
 
The best thing jiberish has come out with recently was the blacklist hoodies. And those were clearly meant as a thank you to their old supporters
 
im bringing this back to set the record straight. I still rock my old jiberish from 08-10, even up to 2013 etc. and im 27 years old! its not to childish or outdated! i wear it work, wear it on dates, wear it around the house, wear it to the mall, and i get mad compliments on that shit! wheni wear the newer stuff no one says a damn thing cuz it looks like everything else! and i get more bitches in my older jib like the boltastic, or jungle cat, or fittest than anything else i own! the shit is unique and different and stands out! that was jiberish's ideals as a company back then! the OG jiberish is the company that i bought into. we the skiers, the broke ski bums who had just enough money to eat and pay bills living in breckenridges high priced tourist trap economy, wold spend our last money to get the newest jiberish and wait for it to drop so it wouldnt sell out. its us, the ski bum, skiing phanatics that brought them to where they are today. they forgot there roots in the style and nastalgia and exlusivity that made them who they are! the new jiberish is still skiing sure, but not the focus that it once was. the new jiberish is not exlusive.. they make so many of the damn product now they cant sell out on there stock. i dont get that feeling now when 5000 people got the same damn shit. and they are now selling the blacklist items in the store! not ok.. its supposed to b for loyal supporters and its something that should make you feeel like you earned it. now any average person can walk in and buy a blacklist item i had to work and wait to achieve! its because they cant sell there other items so make a buck of the few items that are good this year, the blacklist hoodies! you dont have to be a genius to know jib isnt what it once was. the jib of old sold out in minutes, the new stuff is still in stock, and has been restocked several times (good bye exlcusivity) and they dont focus on the styles of the artists they used to love teaming up with! there vision was to not mold into the rest of the clothing scene, and conform, and they are built on a model of organic clothing, and aesthetic ideals and artistic creativity. the stuff they make now isnt designed by artiists! and they are following the trends that they said they wouldnt (supreme, bape) and are now making stuff like everyone else! they used to be outside the industry making unique flashy, amazing pieces designed by artists! read this quote from them and you will see that it is not what they have lived up to. they forgot there roots, they forgot there founding principles. i dont care if you grow up! and ur style changes! your clothing company was founded on whats in this quote in the photo. u cant just change it! and if you do make sure u stay true to the artists, the organics of it, and the goal to not conform!! THEY DID SELL out! if it wasnt about the money THEN WHY DO THEY MAKE SO MUCH QUANTITY OF EACH HOODIE! THEY USED TO MAKE LIKE 20-30 PIECES OF ONE STYLE, NOW THEY RESTOCK EACH ITEM 3 TIMES A YEAR!
