Ok. im planning on picking up some new oakley gear soon, but i have some questions to ask first. If anyone either works for oakley or is very informed about there products then maybe you can help. Some of the questons i have are;

Which is the baggiest fitting jacket/pant.

Any clue on proform prices

Any first hand info on them. If you have ridden them before.

I know these are pretty generic questions but im pretty broke so I need to make sure im spending the money in the best way possible.
 
i have an oakley coat ( style escaping me at the moment ) but just a great peice of gear, light weight, warm as hell, looks dope. and plain and simple in terms of accesories, no stupis shit you dont need, just the nesesitys. 10 out of 10
 
iv always love oakley gear wether it be goggles,outerwear, sunglasses..... you cant go wrong with there outerwear, they contain some great technology... i believe all there mens snow gear is prity basic in sizing.... none of there stuff is specificly baggy or big.... its up to u to get rediculously big sizes, but they dont make any thing over xxl.... and that would be big on most people
 
Ummmmmm, no. All Oakley shit that I have has either ripped or just comes apart. Except for their goggles and glasses, but other than that no.
 
I've got two oakley pants and one jacket that i use all the time... i love them and they are the best i've ever used. I am 6'1" 155 lbs. and both pants and jacket are respectfully baggy on me and they are Larges. I would definitely recomond buying oakley... especially if you can get it on sale online somewhere. And they don't proform as far as I know, at least for ski patrol.
 
i rock all oakley. pants, jacket, and googles. and i love it all so much. its so warm and comfortable. really steezy as well. and i rock crowbars and im never going back to another goggle. they are so comfy and good quality. OAKLEY RULZ.
 
im not sure for ski patrol but i know that they proform. im just waiting for my oakley rep to come in to my shop to get that actual form, and to the others I was just wondering if you know of any specific models that fit much bigger than another.
 
they have different fits to their outerwear. i.e. baggy fit, loose fit, park fit, regular fit, tall fit. so there ya go.
 
their stuff is absurdly overpriced this year. more so than usual. their top of the line stuff is the same as alot of helly hansens stuff, or burtons ak line, but twice the price.

but proform solves that i guess
 
I think it depends on who you talk to. Every oakley thing ive had has withstood super abuse and compared to my other outerwear set up (HH) It didnt tear or break or anything without any of my doing. I think there stuff might be a little over priced but the quality to me seems very good.
 
Well I bought pants the first week of January, and by the time I left CO on March 31st (they had less than 20 days total) the pants at the bottom were all torn up from my bindings and walking. Oakley is ridiculously overpriced for what quality they actually have.
 
sizing could be a little bigger imo. here I am in xxl baggy fit pants. im 6'2" 150 lbs

I stay away from Oakley because everyone has it and because it's expensive. Like seriously I just buy snowpants and jackets that keep water out and keep me warm while being breathable. I do try to buy nice skis, boots, and bindings because that will most likely improve my performance. That's just me, nothing wrong with Oakley though. If you really think you can spend the money then go for it. Be careful with the economy the way it is though.
 
what she said, only the glasses and goggles are worth paying for. every thing else is overpriced trendy and low quality with threads hanging out
