Obermeyer Gum Drop Suite
best snow /ski suit ever!!
By MissKatieRosa
Ranked #188 - Toddler Jackets
January 25, 2008
Just like the other reviewer, I highly recommend this suit. I've tried lots of different brands over the last 5 years and I discovered these suits last winter and I won't buy anything else now.
They are very well made: seams are tight, zipper pulls are strong, elastic gaiters are high-quality elastic, the water-proofing is great after an hour romp in the snow, the suits are still dry compared to other (high-end) brands that are soaked thru.
We live in Ski Country, Colorado and my girl and boy wear these for sledding, ski school, and all outdoor play. I actually dropped her off at ski school one day in -5 weather and I didn't worry at all, I knew this suit would keep her warm (it did, she told me "I was FINE, mom").
My husband who doesn't like to spend money has even told me he's glad I buy these suits for the kids!!
It is a lot of money, but it is worth every penny!
