Their website hasn't been updated in quite while. Actually, there's no 07/08 clothing at all on there. I drove by the shop a few weeks ago and it looked pretty bleak. Anyone have any news?

There's a bunch of their stuff on overstock.com right now, probably not a good sign.

Bummer. I liked their gear. My kids both have PW pants and my daughter has the matching jacket. So if they aren't around any more, which Tahoe area company do we support now? I guess it might have to be Aegix since there's significant maggot/maggette support there. Is there pink Aegix gear? My daughter will demand it.

In any case, if you're ever really in this situation make sure you at least bargain in a couple of fluffers.

They closed their factory store that was in downtown Burlington, VT if that means anything...

Apparently the Tahoe City outlet store is closed too, but they have an office upstairs. At least that's what I was told when they called to tell me my repaired jacket was ready to be picked up. Then they shipped my jacket to me for free before I could get up to Tahoe to pick it up. So I'm happy I got my jacket repaired and returned.

We had placed an order for our shop this year. They just told us they are not making any clothing THIS season. But it sounds like they are all but dead.

man, if they had been savvy they would have attempted to cash in on the forthcoming AvP frenzy (that being Alien Vs. Predator 2).

I heard this somewhere else, I think on newschoolers.com. Don't know the details though. I have pants and a jacket by them, nice stuff.

I hope not....tried calling their office to order a new jacket...left a message, no returned called. Suprisig, I got a pair of their pants for 100 bucks in Burlington just before they closed their shop down, stupid I should have gotten two more and some jackets. Only pants I've owned so far that are actually "waterproof".

Nothing concrete. The web site is up, but if you click on any of the items, they say "out of stock". No one answered the phone at HQ when I just called at 3:00pm local time. I'm glad I got my kids' pants replaced last season and didn't wait until now.

I called, they didn't answer. I called Forerunner ski shop in Killington Vt, they always carry Predator Wear, and the guy told me they are not in business anymore.
