I have recently stumbled upon what seems like a good deal for some snowboard pants at my local store.

I was looking for some more neutral coloured pants to add to my collection and these are in a nice denim-like navy.

Same model;

Question is that I have never heard of this brand. I have googled around and can't find much information other than it is a Swedish brand.

Is the quality ok?

Pretty good but not great quality. Best looking stuff on the hill though IMO. Got some couple years ago on deep discount on Backcountry, so good quality for the deal you get. They also have good discounts on Evo. Had a couple problems with zippers breaking but nothing crazy. Fit is great for me and I have a couple of their versions of gore that keeps me dry.

Last season I saw a guy on the mountain wearing toilet paper that's recycled and still has fecal matter on it, just a matter of time before it catches on and we're all wearing it. Or, he could have been senile and had a stream of dirty toilet paper stuck to his pants, I don't remember.

I am really torn here.

Not many good deals for pants around in Australia.

I really like those pants too. Shame the quality is so terrible! I am almost still tempted!

Has anyone heard of this brand groovestar? They are a New Zealand brand?

where the CLWR were about $90 posted for 10k pants these would be about $120 for 20k pants shipped but once again have not heard of this brand!

Ignore that last post.

I feel that these are one third the price of more reputable brands because they are probably one third as good quality.

I just wish that the good American stores would ship to Australia for a reasonable amount of money. Most brands won't ship over here and if they do the shipping costs double the price of the products!
