They are european style clothing for the trendy young fella's. Have you seen the snowsuits in the old sled racing photos from the 70's? Llike that, but in bright Skittles colors.
Most heinous.

HAH! That's the one.
I would have, umm, preferred a black one, but the people at Tobe had one left & made me a deal on it. Even at full pop, I'd have been VERY happy - it is a nice piece. Trick was, the one they had was the red/green.
I deliberated, then I got it. Glad I did. I've been considering getting some Rit dye and making it grey and greyer, but y'know what? On the days I want to wear it (stupid cold and/or deep), I DON'T CARE. Too much fun to care.
heh.
Yes, teletubbie - I've heard that once or twice before.
(okokok, it is pretty much constant, with or without a gopro)
Making it more fun, I'm a larger-than-average gent, so, well, yeah. It is embarrassing for a couple of minutes, then it is just funny.
It does have a bum-flap. As does my onsie long underwear. I dress up like an 8 year old to go snowmobiling.

I wouldn't mind the bum flap some days....

I had one last year, I loved it. I'm a taller guy and always had issues with snow up the jacket. Last year was the first year I never had a issue, wouldn't trade a onesie for anything. Getting the new Kevlar this year.
I can see the potential advantage while riding.
But I also see the disadvantage of every time I would currently shed the jacket.....
While digging out,
While stopping for a break,
While wrentching,
In vehicle etc.
They will sell, simply because they are different than the current norm. Me? I'm not drinking the koolaid until I am convinced it would fit my needs better than my current gear.

they should give out free snowest lifetime memberships to whoever has the balls to wear one out in public.LOL.
Mine was VERY similar to this...but with the stripe.
I'm thinking the stipe just went to the waist, not all the way down.

THEY DO NOT, AND YOU'D BEST NOT BE GIVING THEM ANY IDEAS!!!!!11!!!!

it is hilarious.
Maybe some one already mentioned it, but the hood zips right off.
S
I've done the YMCA rolling down some hills in the past. You get up and have snow everywhere you don't want it.
How have the zippers held up? What's the going price? I'm interested.

I have a feeling that these will de-throne the notoriety of the NMFH. Better yet, buy the onezy and get NMFH.
I personally like my MF gear. I don't have to unzip that flap on the back to take a crap.

Zippers held up fine, that's one thing that could use upgrading on the suit, maybe they did for this year though, they work but every once in awhile they get caught in the windblocker thing that covers the zipper. I think they run $550-600. I got an early season discount last year and got mine for $470. Cheaper than a coat and bibs
That is awesome! So now you need to come up with the catch phrase...and acronym for us to use. A video using the phrase this winter will seal the deal!
This comes to mind - Nice F'N Onezy NFNO
