A little bird suggested there might be some new sled clothing coming out later this year that just might tie in with this helmet from KLIM. If so, I could see a new matching jacket in my future!

I have 6 KLIM helmets. 1 of which is the new light weight style like this one. I have also busted off my vents on the older ones, but the new style hasn't broken yet, other than the visor which I seem to burn through every year.

The big difference is in sound and weight.
Much lighter.
Much louder as there is less sound dampening.

RMSCustom yes these vents are considerably better than years past. It is the same helmet that was available this year in stealth white, stealth black, and matte black, they just added some color and word is the stealth color ways may return as well. Right now they are slated to get nicked. There is also still the DOT version which is considerably heavier. But some guys want to have that rating. The main difference that we see with the vents being less willing to rip off is they are now rounded at the tips, less aggressive of a lip to catch and snag on branches etc. Yet you still get the airflow effect. We have not replaced on set of vents this year.

And Yes Christopher there is a new PowerXross jacket that may or may not be orange, and some new PowerXross pants that may or may not be blue

Fun things coming next fall.

No kidding, I'm 6'3" and had to buy a 2XL Valdez jecket to get enough length in the arm (same length arms as smaller jackets, just more body so it feels like the arms are longer).

This topic has already been hashed out in five different threads this year, and been explained in detail lol.

I think a great illustration of salesman's egos running wild is when self promoting retailers feel somehow entitled to speak on behalf of multiple clothing manufacturers and the reasons for their internal business decisions. :face-icon-small-dis

Well then, ENLIGHTEN US?

Why did KLIM decide NOT to offer any clothing in TALL ??

Agreed, i've never seen an answer. There is the thread that we all measured our jacket arms and found that none of the Klim arms are long, just larger bodies. Klim, or any other major sled clothing mfgr has never explained why.

Answers are in the Replacing Klim PowerXross thread...Basically if there was a large enough demand to meet minimums for production, they would be produced. Like stated in other threads, if Klim thought they were missing the boat on a huge sales opportunity, they would have been making Talls for years, as some people on Snowest have clearly been fighting this issue for years.

That was your answer, not Klim's. Look at how much interest there is in all the clothing threads on here now and in the past, there is a demand. I'm not looking for an argument, just wondering why they don't even try.

christopher · May 14, 2014

Clearly there is interest from their customer base. Question is, is there ENOUGH to develop a product line

No, that is Klim's take. The day the question was asked on this Forum I called our rep, and sent an email to our Regional Sales Manager. And that was the response I got, not enough demand to warrant production, yet. Not here to argue either, we were asked a question and we solicited an answer from the powers that be, not sure why people think we just made this up. Like mentioned in numerous posts by us, we would love to sell Talls to you guys. In the end it would be a better fitting piece which produces a happier customer.

There have been over 500 members and well over 2000 views on the last two threads that sizing has been discussed, and the same 4-5 people are the ones chiming in about Tall sizes. These are also the same people that have chimed in about sizing in the past. It would appear the demand really is not that high based on sheer response, but maybe we need to start a Tall sizing thread that is 100% based on this to make a case in point for the MFG's? Just ask the people to chime in and post if they would or would not buy tall jackets if they were available? Maybe the voices have not been united enough to become loud and recognizable to the MFG's?
