SHOT Show Clothing info

[Hardstalk]

Robby, have you bumped into these guys yet?
I did not have a chance to talk much just got what I needed and ran but there patterns are looking pretty cool.

 

[Nick Muche]

Kenton is a great guy and First Lite offers some of the best clothing in the industry. Great people to deal with! Plus, like Robby said, they are from Idaho

Robby,

I was hoping to see video of you modeling the clothes...full-on runway style

 

[robby denning]

belly-deep! You're scaring me.
and to think that I've spent the night in the same tent as you!

I'm liking what he's saying about the 20% less than Sitka.

 

[Aron Snyder]

Kuiu is not at the show.

Kuiu has there show schedule on there web site. I know they will be at SCI and the Sheep Show in Reno. Especially since those shows are maybe 2hrs from them

Excited to see the New rain gear for.sure !!

 

[robby denning]

Hardstalk, I just plain ran out of time to check out Depsocs patterns! Hope to see them around, though.

Got over to the Kryptek booth and got to talk to Jared Bloomgren about the 2013 design of ultra-light raingear. Here's what he had to say (this stuff is on my Aron-please-get-me some list )

[Floorguy]

great now I will have to sell my twice worn Koldo jacket at a loss to spend more money on the lighter new offerings.

Believe it or not, I didn't even ask. When I'm looking at the high-end gear, I usually follow the axiom, "if you have to ask, you can't afford it".
Check out their website and you should get an answer.

A lot of this is like the optics; the Wal-mart stuff will keep you dry most of the time, but will it last and will it come through when you really need it?

Talking about an innovative jacket with Jared combing the "best of the best" for a functional garmet.

PS. the editing software wouldn't combine the video as needed so there are two parts if you want to watch it all- sorry!

Thanks Robby and Jared! Instant must-have for me. Been waiting for someone to come out with some rain gear just like that for a while now.

That Kryptek coat looks awesome! I may actually need to pick up my first piece of Kryptek gear now.

 

[HellsCanyon]

That borealis looks awesome! Same concept as my Russel L2 Tundra shirt but instead of polypro and then a windshear shell on the front, merino and primaloft! What 'weight' is the merino do you know?

Also what does the Poseidon set weight in at and how does it breathe?

[robby denning]

send Jared an email at
[email protected] for specs and questions

 

[Jared Bloomgren]

The Borealis is 16.2 oz.

No weight for the Poseidon at this time.
