    Default ArcticBoyz Leathers

    Mission Statement:
    To provide quality custom leather suits to downhill skaters at an affordable price.

    Our Goal
    To become a globally recognized company within the Downhill Skating community and to provide quality products within a reasonable price range.

    About Us:
    ArcticBoyz uses carefully hand-selected materials and our factory has over 35 years experience in making leather suits. We have sales points in multiple countries around the world.

    For every 10 suits we sell, we will give one custom suit away to a lucky winner. The winner will be chosen from participants in this thread and from our followers on facebook. So post in this thread and follow us on facebook! ArcticBoyz Leathers on Facebook

    We will also be posting product updates, pictures and promotions on this thread.

    How are we able to provide a quality product for substantially cheaper then other companies? ArcticBoyz was started as a hobby, and ArcticBoyz is run as a spare-time business. There are no salary payouts. There are no employees, and no one is trying to make a living off of this business. These principals translate to a minimal profit, and therefore minimal price. We are not salesman; we are fellow skaters.

    There is nothing more satisfying then a hobby that spreads so much stoke and gets so much positive feedback.

    Some history:
    In 2008, ArcticBoyz began providing quality leather suits to motorcycle enthusiasts at a price point much lower then other companies.
    In 2009, we started making one-piece leather suits for the Downhill Skate sports. It was the Norwegian longboarder, Mikko Aijala, who triggered this.
    In 2010, we focused 100% on making a high quality suit for the Downhill Skate Sport. We disregarded our other products with a few exceptions like customized leather pants and leather vests.
    The high quality of leather, threads and handcrafts gave us a great push forward. We realized that we are actually able to make high quality suits for much lower prices than our competitors. We were very happy with the results of our handcraft and quality procedures, which have proven less than 1cm of tolerance in leathers at each measured part of the body.

    The Product
    The Nifelhel suit is the latest model of our Downhill Skate Suits. It is still available for purchase at this moment, but delivery will not be until June. The suit that you would get in June will be the perfected Nifelhel suit.
    The suit is currently selling for the promotional price of $500 (all shipping fees included). Orders must be placed by mid-March and delivery will be in June.
    Once things are in full swing, the price will increase and wait times will decrease.

    Specification of NIFELHEL Custom Suit:
    • Cowhide leather of 1.2-1.3 mm
    • Leather stretch at back. Maximum stretch: 10 cm = the same as your back skin stretches when you go into tuck.
    • Leather stretch on each side of upper back
    • Leather stretch above knee
    • Kevlar stretch panel inside legs - underneath arms - arms pit - arms towards middle of chest
    • "Hit zone" with no seams
    • No collar
    • Two inside pockets, one with zipper the other for cell phone
    • Inside belt for hanging upper part of suit when walking
    • Inside removable soft protectors at back, elbow, hip and knee
    • Perforated leather at chest and back
    • Threads are Kevlar strengthened
    Your options:
    • Tailored size for your own body
    • Name on back
    • Leather colors (note that the Kevlar stretch panels will be black)

    How to order
    You can order by getting on contact with any the sales reps in your country. Send a message to your sales rep via facebook (silverfish works too!).
    Sales Reps are listed here ArcticBoyz Sales Reps
    If there are no sales reps in your country, you can contact Don in the main office in Norway. Don will take care of you!

    Return Policy
    We guarantee that the suit fits. If it does not fit, we issue a full refund and the suit is returned back to us. If there is a failure of the suit (seams, etc) we will cover the cost of repair; this must be done on a case-by-case basis.

    If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.

    are there stretch panels under the arms in those leathers? I know someone who bought leathers with no stretch panels and he couldn't lift his arms. He did do a good impression of John McCain though

    The kevlar stretch is shown in black. The leather stretch is shown in the wavy section. The exact placement and length of these stretch pads is being perfected. On any suit ordered by a customer, this will be tweaked to be just right.
