Special Blend Outerwear 2010-2011

First chair and last call is the quintessential logo of Special Blend outerwear and since 1992 they’ve brought out their signature styles in colors, stripes and technical features on their snowboard jackets and pants.

Each of the Special Blend group collections focus on a different fit, inspiration and details.  For the men the Fader group gives snowboarders premium waterproofing and designs for a dedication to riding, the principal group blends mountain function with street fashion, cirrus group is the fashion forward mentality with a heavy dose of style, the revolver group features a tailored fit, muted colors and an emphasis on subtle details.  For the women, prime group is a balance of fashion and on-snow function and the substance group gives women a tailored fit and relaxed fit to help with progression.
