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.
