Looks technical stuff to me.
Any particular reason why you want it, as oppose to any other specific brand?

I just thought that I hadnt seen alot of Dainese jackets on the slopes as opposed to other brands (Tresspass, Dare2Be, Spyder etc etc.)

Though I would imagine most of the spyders to be the moody Jap copies.

Another jacket which I am pondering over is a Helly Hansen.

Being the nuttynutnut that I am, I am a little undecided as to what fancydress I should wear on the last Fridays skiing this time round in niederau.

A load of us going out there and its a kinda tradition that should be upheld.

Any ideas and no I wont do the borat mankini.

Not a great fan of snowplough but I have been known to use this on the dryslopes to stop me from going head over heels.

No I was looking at the goretex type material for a dainese ski jacket

I know a couple of roofers who wear womens tights and swear by them.

I just wouldnt want to be caught in the mensroom with them on!! :lol:

Like the title says, its not a helmet debate.

Anyway, I am looking at getting a Dainese ski jacket and just wanted to know opinions on them.

I have Dainese motorcycle leathers and they are excellent quality. Just want to know if the same can be said for their ski wear.

Well I could be santa, seeing as I only get to come about once a year. lol
