I guess I'd have to see the shit quality first hand before I believed you two :lol2:

All joking aside, I've had my Klim gear since 2014, so I'm due for some new stuff ... and the gear I currently own has been pretty damn good.  I don't see myself buying FXR, Motofist, or whatever other brand (Carharts!! LOL)   

Customer service started to slide big time before poo took them over . Now it us non existent.

My motor fist coat was complete shit. I have never sent a jacket back so many times for a zipper. I finally gave up on it and threw it away 

Was it the  bottem self stuff or top shelf ? 

I have seen there levels and the bottom shelf stuff it total shit but same can be said for klim bottom shelf shit hell klim did not even put mesh in the vents of there base line stuff .

I have had decent luck with my top shelf fisting gear . But I have only gotten there top shelf shell type stuff and a few pr of gloves socks etc 

Think my leat set of pants went 5 seasons till a zipper fail . But knee pads  started moving around yr 1

I have no idea. It was like 400 dollar jacket. Regardless of what shelf it is, the zipper should not fail 5 times. I have coats from Walmart I never zipper issues with that cost 20 bucks. Motor fist has been and is trash.

AFIK textron sold them off to whatever company is making the ac gear.  

Any cat dealer can order the stuff

The cat stuff comes out of place in Wisconsin now I think. At least the emails they send out has a Wisconsin address in them. Did Textron sell of the rights to the cat ware??

It is great connecting with some of the old ISOC, and HCS guys every year at Hay Days. It is the largest snowmobile event in the world, and by far the sport's mecca. If you're on the fence about going, do yourself a favor and take a look at the list of vendors that will be attending (posted earlier). 

I'll be there, as I am every year. The last couple of years, I've just gone to attend the event and not as a vendor or swapper- it is much more enjoyable that way and I can actually see the sights! Hell, I used to travel from Montana every year for Hay Days before I moved back to NW WI. Again, if you're on the fence about going, I highly recommend it. 

Just be there before 0800....  LOL....

It’s like the Mn state fair, with less carnies and more garbage. If you remove the flea market part of it, it’s not really that big. I can see the whole thing in about 3 hours or less. 

Can't conceal carry at the fair, though - they have metal detectors
