Seriously? I'd support you for 60€, but I'm not going to pay freakin' 100€ for that. A piece of clothing is not worth the money, especially since I bet that the quality does not match the cost (not implying it's bad quality though).
And I bought a T-Shirt already (just to prove that I'm not saying 'blabla I'd pay 60 bucks' and thinking 'haha fuck you').
Edit: goddammit, I'll put 40 bucks aside per month and I dare you to not have any jackets in 3 months.
buy a hoodie, it's prolly more wearable than the jacket

Esport jackets more expensive than the ones made by nike for soccer, that's unreasonable. Scale is a significant factor. One of the world's most recognized brands, excellent supply chain management, high contract leverage etc vs Team Liquid. Exactly, Liquid should be cheaper No, they really shouldn't. - Less people involved in production (TL probably buys the finished product from somewhere) - Shorter supply chain (TL won't send this jacket around the world during the production process) - Having a rough estimate on how much will sell from a few years of selling tshirts etc now, so knowing the rough order quantity from TL's supplier I tend to agree with Lemon more, sorry.
Production in the thousands of a product from highly specialized factories keeping costs low versus buying a finished/semi finished product with customization.
You guys have no fucking clue as to how these costs differ and anyone thinking 100€ is expensive for something like this should go look into producing their own 300 customized soft shells and report their findings. Add in the global distribution and the margin for TL and see how much cheaper you can do it. Anyways it seems likely they can sell them all anyways so if you guys thinks it's too expensive, simply don't buy it.
For reference here in DK I visited the largest online mens retailer looking for softshell with no criteria other than it being a softshell - the cheapest was 399 DKK (53.2€), around half of the TL price, but that was a Jack & Jones jacket which is produced in quantities about 150 times larger than TL. Everything else was more expensive (at least the non discounted prices). With prices typically ranging from 799 DKK to 1400 DKK
TL:DR : You guys are all cheapskates.

Can we get a sizing chart for chest, waist, and hanches?
I hope you guys have something good for a 42-44 inch chest.

That is one fucking expensive jacket.

You do know that stores that sell clothes have up to 60-90% profit margin per cloth piece they sell?
e: Online they have little bit smaller as you don't need store for it.

Can Canada get free shipping too? >_<
What company is making this jacket?
|
Perfect timing, right after I order 3 soccer jerseys for the new season. But I will have this jacket
|
Wtf that looks so good :D
|
Looks really clean and nice. Reminds me of the good old BW jerseys, some of those were legendary.
The price might be a bit too steep though.
|
tempting, 100% custom ones cost almost as much tho
|

After processing the post for a few minutes it's clear that the price is too high for me to pick one up on the initial run. I presume there'll be more runs similar to the SKT1 jersey?
|
If this were even 75 euros it would be 99% tempting, this price gotta think twice. However due to limited stock doubt I will get first batch...

Yes, I've worked in retailing. Why shouldn't TL keep the same margins?
|
As with our shirts, we will try to make them accessible to as many people as possible, but we care about quality first.
I guess I will just have to wait for it being made more accessible... The jacket does look mighty fine, though, dayum.
|
They obviously wont have a 90% margin. But I'm fine with a 30% margin, its not charity 
Anyway, does someone know at what time will be those available in Europe? 00:00 Central european time?
|
I already have the two tshirts and the jersey, I might get broke once again.
|
100euro for a jacket.
I'm sorry your marketing director needs to be fired.
The brand might be good and it looks cool but the material that is made of does not look good enough to be 100euros.
I wanna know what is made of for it to be worth 100euros.
Soft shell doesn't exactly means anything to most people so please elaborate more.
