I'm hoping this thread will be where people talk about how much they like or dislike their 2011 analog stuff. I have a 2011 analog acetate kit and so far i love it. Havent rode in it much but its comfy and i love the thumb gaskets to hold the sleeves down. I wore the jacket in town in rain/drizzle and the water beaded off exceptionally.
I don't like that there are no leg lifts on the pants though, kind of a cheap out move by analog IMO.
I have the Acetate jacket and I like it a lot too. The fit on it is great for me, kinda wish it was maybe an inch or so longer, but I'm not complaining at all. Haven't worn it in shitty weather so can't comment on how it deals with that yet.
Will be wearing the Alkaline jacket in the Tahoe storm this weekend, so I'll write some stuff up after
inb4 all the "ZOMG the Crux is the best thing EVAR" comments.....even though it is.
mr-mouse said: is acetate pant's material same as one they used on renders? i liked those pants alot.
Nope, the Render as a 3L material and iirc the Acetate is a 2L.
Love my Acetate Pants. Well I've only ridden in them once but they are nice. Agree on the leg lifts. And the legs seem almost too wide but thats ok.
Will be riding in the Asset Jacket this weekend. Will report back.
Dear diary,
My Acetate pants are great. The larges fit my long skinny frame pretty well (I'm 6'1.5", 175lbs). They could be a bit longer, but the length is fine, really. I have some concern about the material's durability because it seems so lightweight, especially compared to the Renders. My concerns may be unfounded; I'll just have to see how they hold up over the season.
So far, I love my Comply Jacket. The sleeves are great for my stupid long arms. The insulation is pretty light; not bulky at all.
More entries to come once I have more ride time.
XOXO,
esq
I'm interested to hear comments on the durability of the stretch nylon on the Acetates. It seems like every company is making stuff from polyester, stretch nylon etc. now which I don't necessarily see as a good thing as far as durability is concerned.

sorry for the cross quote, i just wanted to say that is the ideal jacket lenght imo (:
Oh greed you're the steeziest.... The love is in the details. Your small pocket in the chest is perfect for my ipod. easy access when I neeed it, and it stays put. No more bouncing around and pulling on my headphones. It also keeps my remote at the perfect length. There's no greed like black greed.

Doc, is the top most piece of velcro on your Acetate jacket storm flap where it should be? I have to really stretch mine to get it to "line-up". Kinda hard to describe, maybe I'll take pics.

Overall, day 1 with the Acetate jacket was good. I like the thumb loops, but they do feel restrictive at full reach, either need longer sleeves or longer loops. I was falling left and right in all the powzery goodness and stayed nice and dry!
No mine is finepassing-gas said: Doc, is the top most piece of velcro on your Acetate jacket storm flap where it should be? I have to really stretch mine to get it to "line-up". Kinda hard to describe, maybe I'll take pics.
Alkaline jacket kept me toasty in this weekend's shitstorm.
Only thing that I can find to complain about it right now, is that the cuffs got frozen, which has never happened to any other jacket I've owned. Not a big deal, but ya.
