Ducksback Rain Gear That Keeps You Dry

DUCKSBACK TESTIMONIAL

Since receiving the DUCKSBACK I have worn such in continuous rain, driving rain, everything short of hurricane torrent (that maybe soon) and not once has it failed in any manner to keep me 100% dry. The DUCKSBACK material is performing beyond any other rain gear I have. Being super light-weight and packable is the other major plus.

Any who have purchased the Lamilite insulated garments know how soft and huggable the garments are. I would easily put my garments up against any down garment for feel and certainly performance. As for performance there is a major difference since the Lamilite does not absorb any moisture, which the down does. For that reason alone down loses its insulating qualities, while Lamilite never loses its insulating qualities, and down gets heavy, and the result is that it does not feel as good as it did when you tried the garment on in the store while it was completely dry.

BEING A MANUFACTURER

One of the things I have learned over the many years that I have owned a sewing manufacturing plant is that you have to engineer each and every product you make. You just can’t slap the fabrics together if you want a product that people will be interested in buying. The construction should be such that the product does not fall apart after two weeks use. Rest assured that if it has the Wiggy label (my nickname) on the product is not made haphazardly, it is made to last.

While writing this I received a call from a customer who bought one of my bags through Tim Hampton who taught the backpacking class at Ohio State University. He has the bag for 24 years and is finally sending it back to be refurbished. How is that for durability!
