Profahoben_212I had the same bag...thing was pretty tight!
How'd it hold up? I was reluctant because of past experiences with Line's product quality. But it feels more rugged than I assumed and it's the perfect size.

It was alright! I still use it every now and then. Had it since sophomore year of highschool and I'm a junior in college now. Used it for class all through highschool and as a climbing/hiking bag. Used It a couple times skiing and it held up. Solid material on the shovel pocket.
Exactly how I said. It was $25 on The-house, I had a couple other items in my cart and by adding this I was qualified for free shipping. Plus I had a coupon code that was 5% extra off. So it basically equated to less than $10.
Minor fuckup though:
I bought these during a panic attack after finding out they were going out of stock. I then found out my mum had just bought me a pair as a Christmas present. So now I have two pairs of Vishnus

I mean you could just return one of the 2 pairs right?

We tried to cancel an order after we discovered our mistake but both had already shipped. Yes I could just send one pair back but shipping is expensive since I live in NZ. So I’ll try to just sell the other pair over here

I'm not trying to throw shade, but 5% off $25 isn't $10. That's why I was asking

The moral of the story is that it was a extremely inexpensive backpack. Wasnt trying to make this into math homework. I dont remember what it worked out to exactly but I had a 5% off code and qualified for free shipping after adding it to my cart (that I otherwise would have been paying $15 for.) In other words, without the backpack in my cart I would have paid within a dollar of what I paid with the backpack. So it was a no brainer.

Sorry I wasn't trying to be an asshole I was just asking because I thought I could get one for $10
Chubz.Got the last pair in xxl and I’m so happy I’m able to finally rep some bloom.
Just seeing this, I'm guessing they've been delivered by now. How do you feel about the size? I like my ski shit relatively big and my LARGE bloom bibs still seem absolutely enormous. Im jealous of the all black.. wish last years were like that rather than the grey/white print on the knees.

Granted I’m a bigger dude, I’m at like 230 rn, I wear a 38 waist but..
Honestly they’re the weirdest fitting bibs I’ve put on. They’re gigantic in the legs/thighs but it seems like they put a medium size bib on xxl pants. I couldn’t even fit my shoulders in them so I’m back to rocking my janky ass suspenders. Really disappointed I spent 200 bucks on these.
I also blew a hole in them my 4th day riding them so I’m pretty disappointed in the quality of the pants as well.
I probably won’t be buying bloom again for pants, took a shot in the dark off good reviews and hype and my under armor pants that I’ve had the last 4 seasons are in better condition then my brand new ones, and that’s saying something.
Probably gonna buy a pair of black carhartt bibs at tractor supply or something and a can of water proofing spray. Those will probably out last these blooms by 5 or 6 years.

This was my exact reaction. Very weird fit. I can practically fit both my legs down one pant leg, but the waist is tight af, and im a skinny dude so I cant imagine how they'd fit on a bigger frame. I have the bibs maxed out for length but they're still too short, so I'm constantly pulling them down to avoid catastrophic wedgies. Like you, I've been wearing my old tattered shaun white edition burton pants instead just because they actually fit.
But my biggest gripe by far (at least on last years bibs) is that the damn chest pocket is USELESS. There is no zipper/button/velcro to keep the pocket closed, so anything you keep in it just flies out the second you bend over, jump, etc. Half the reason I even bought bibs was to have access to a chest pocket. I almost feel like its a manufacturer defect because I cant believe they would design it so poorly.

I wish saga made a little bit bigger size for their xxl bibs because those look sick as fuck. My buddy has a pair and the quality seems unreal, already know the water proofing is gonna be bomb. But I know they won’t fit me the way I want them too. Really sucks bein a bigger dude in a sport where everybody’s either short and weighs 120lbs or tall and lengthy. Even if I did lose more weight my build is still pretty stocky, I have wide shoulders and chest and that’s where I run into issues with bibs.
But yeah idk. Really bummed about bloom, had high hopes and they let me down. Gonna be surprised if i’ll get a season out of these. Crotch is already blown out on the inside after a week of riding which makes no sense because they’re baggy on me, and I sag them. Blew out a hole in the front by the zipper that keeps getting bigger every day. Can’t wait to see what’s gonna happen to them once we start pushing our bigger parks and spend 10 hours digging rails and getting my pants caught in shit.
They’re warm though. I will give them that I guess..

My Saga's blew out in the crotch area on the second day of riding, and have a bunch of scuffs/tears now, quality isn't stellar anymore I think
