Each year 686 consistently offers a fun collection of outerwear from bright bold statements to the subtle color choices. They understand that technology needs to be combined with quality and bring that to their collection year after year. This year the collection continues with their signature lines: Smarty, Plexus, Mannual and the new Reserved. The Reserved line brings out fashion forward designs with a tailored fit that works on and off the mountain.
For limited edition apparel, the Snaggletooth series is back with junior and senior, Louie Vito is awarded his own signature collection and Suicidal Tendencies are honored with a collection that pays tribute to rocking out in style.
686 continues to collaborate with Levi’s and New Balance, bringing a variety of outerwear, footwear and accessories to the line. The New Balance boots now feature BOA Technology as an option.

March 3, 2010 at 3:23 pmI slept on 686 stuff for years but then grabbed some when I worked at Dogfunk. Its really become one of my favorite brands. So well made and always a line up that includes a good clean basic look that I prefer. A question about the boots.. this past season both their models seemed fairly stiff are these traditional laced ones that youve shown here a tad softer?

March 4, 2010 at 9:22 amAgreed with burritosandsnow. I love that their lines are so clean and basic. Very good quality too. I also had slept on their stuff, but they are now my favorite brand to look at / purchase.
