Find Pics? Post Here. Any info? Post here. Only thing I know is the shipping date is September 15 and it will be released in mid/late July. I know it's a little early but it's good to have.

A few notes on it being "thinner" for you guys to ponder.

There are a few reasons that this year's outerwear may feel "thinner". Most things are unchanged (shell fabric, zippers, patterns ect) but we did change a few things.

First (and this doesn't surprise me) you are commenting on a black jacket. We went with a different dying process this year that will make the jacket hold its color longer, this means using a lot of dye and therefore (especially in the black) the fabric comes out a bit stiffer. It is not thinner at all, it just drapes different and therefore feels a bit thinner (it doesn't hug you quite as much as last year's stuff).

We also went with a slightly thinner fleece on the pants and inside the pockets to reduce bulk. One of the main things though is that we went back to a mesh liner on the jacket. The mesh is much lighter and increases garment breath-ability considerably; and it also affects the "drape" making the outerwear feel lighter. Overall the stuff is lighter, we shaved about 10oz per suit of weight and have created a higher performing more versatile product.

If you have any further questions on the specifics just let me know.

Haha thanks!

I was kinda scared that it would be all to big for me, but the jacket reaches me to my knees, which is just where I wanted it. Now I can have this LDC for two seasons if I take good care of it...

I ordered like two - three weeks ago, and got it three days ago. Btw I live in Norway, so shipping should take longer, but I got my suit much faster than I thought.

Sorry I dont really remember exact dates...

Dear LDC account.

You should tell your boy kslattery to sell me his black hotbox prototype, as it would complement my recently acquired aqua hotbox jacket. Please and thank you :)

P.S. Would you be able to link me the old LDC a-basin edit from years ago? It had a 3oh!3 song in it, and is one of my favorite edits of all time. But sadly all my efforts to find it have been futile to this point.

I think the edit you are talking about is the second one here, throwback!

You'll have to do some serious sweet talking to get Kevin to sell you those pants, there is some serious sentimental value there!
