Canadian Cartel - Wholesale deals on ORB and Arson Clothing/Outerwear

Long time lurker, first time poster.

Canadian Cartel has ORB and Arson clothing/outerwear for up to 60% off retail.

For those not familiar, you need to sign up for a free account at Canadian Cartel, but it gives you access to limited time sales on skate, surf, snow and biking gear at huge discounts. Definitely worth checking out.

Oh, so Rogers, Bell, and Telus have opened a clothing store together? Interesting.

Any "shopping experience" where I have to provide an E-Mail first before I can even browse anything is one I stay well away from. Good luck!

They tend to have pretty good discounts. Bought from them before, good experience. Items tend to ship before estimated dates.

Looks like a home based business : same dude modelling, with an unpainted plywood background. Perhaps this is a good sign -> lower overhead -> cheaper products.

But gotta wonder about returns, and warranties.

Use the orange "Join Now" button to the left of the login info.

The only reason they ask for your email is to give you updates on their deals as they change every few days. It is a double edge sword. On one hand, the deals are smokin' hot. I got some Sanük's for $30 last week. On the other hand, the deals are smokin' hot so I ended up buying some merino wool later that week. And now it is cheap Arson jackets. (My bank account doesn't love this so much).

ORB and Arson are legit brands that have been in the snowboard scene since the 90's. They are Vancouver based companies.

Buying a $30 base layer without trying it on for sizing and fit is one thing.. but outerwear, no thanks. Next thing you know they'll be offering helmets..

Canadian Cartel is no different than the other deal sites out there, ie Seshday, theclymb, planetgear etc. They deal with small and large distributors alike, whether it be gear from small companies like orb, sessions, foursquare or large ones like oakley, patagonia, etc. This site isn't a scam as I have bought gear on it in the past (protective gear from Demon, goggles, mittens etc). The discounts are good, but not unbeliveably good.

I've bought multiple orders from this site. The really hot items sell fast.

Ps: one item was a helmet

Hey guys,

Yep we and the brands we deal with are totally legit. Just a primer for upcoming brands for later this month (and we deal directly with the brands). FLOW snowboards, boots and bindings starting today. Next Tuesday we have Outdoor Research,men's and wmns stuff. A week from today we are running an Icebreaker event with wmn's, men's and kids Merino wool apparel. Most of this stuff is priced at wholesale or below. We are a Canadian company and pull from Canadian Warehouses. Free shipping anywhere in Canada on purchases over $75 and that includes snowboards.
