Was it a sale? Was anyone else stoked they didn't have to drive to the mile high, blown out city of Denver, to stand in a 6 hour line, to cop some sick shit? I was. I miss the $5 Tees. I pay $38 for a tee when I go to the Gucci store. When I go to the Gucci store. AKA never.

I think Jiberish decided that they wanted to be Supreme. There's nothing wrong with that, after all, Supreme is just a skate brand that gained mainstream exposure and now makes bank. Why couldn't the same thing happen to a ski brand? The problem is that they decided to start acting like 2017 Supreme instead of trying to build a brand with credibility. Supreme can charge $100 for a hoodie because people will pay $100 for a Supreme hoodie, nobody wants to pay $90 for a fucking Jiberish hoodie. And instead of trying to foster their credibility within skiing, the only community who's even heard of them, they've completely abandoned their core fans. Where's the Jiberish edits? What skiers are they sponsoring? Who can even afford to support them? Lastly, their shit is fucking whack these days, like disgustingly whack.

they've been fiendin' to be skiings Supreme for a while now

It all started with LoHi, then Vault and Armory and their original plan was to continue and have stores in LA, NYC, Tokyo, etc. Then they realized Newbury St. rent is fucked, shut down Armory and their grand vision of worldwide stores seems to have fizzled out as they shrunk back into their new Denver store as their only brick&mortar location

as far as Jiberish's complete 180 away from their core fanbase, I agree with you. Tbh I can't think of a super noteworthy edit since Vila & Jordan, and that was when things were already shifting away from skiers. Their team and the content produced around them used to be top notch and plentiful, anyone remember their full length ski/snowboard movie 7 years ago? As skiers its a bummer to see the direction they chose, but to call everything they do now as disgustingly wack is harsh. For example their technical 20k jacket shells were super solid, and have you felt a supima cotton t-shirt? It's arguably overhyped, but still quite quality and its cool that they're trying to continue to grow in that sense with the prices they charge.
 
heres a link to that full length ski movie I mentioned above ^

it's definitely worth a watch if you've never seen it, honestly worth it for just Mike hornbecks pow in the park and shuffles segment alone (starts at 16:41)

oh man I'll never forget being a young park rat, watching that shuffles segment, thinking "how hard could that really be?", and then proceeding to wash out absolutely every landing the next day on the hill. I was wrong, lol.
