Reply to comment by FlyPenFly in Which of the international clothing brands have durable quality? by _SlowRain_

I put OR above these for sure, but below Patagonia/arcteryx. Comparing them to marmot is not fair. Can’t speak for mammut though.

I'd put MAMMUT to the top, in my own opinion, I own 4 or 5 items and every one has exceeded expectations. OR is close, just a bit less consistent. Arc'teryx used to be amazing, but I stopped buying it because I feel the value just isn't there, too expensive.

Mammut has that super slim euro cut. Great if you’re that slim build. Bad if you like weights or a lot of desserts.

I burst through a pair of pants on the thighs when I had to carry a bunch of snowboards up a hill and my thighs swolled.

Very true, especially in their shirts.

I'd put all of them under swedish brand Klättermusen. Really impressed by their quality.

Thanks for the recommendation, but their USA prices are pretty astronomical. Its probably a combination of tariffs, hiding the shipping costs, and no interest in us as a market. Its too bad, because its really good looking stuff.
