Nine Years, One Liner Jacket

SUSTAINABILITY AND RECYCLING

Wiggy,

I have been meaning to do this for a while. I bought my 1st product from you in 1989. This is about the field jacket liner. I always felt the field jacket liner was 1 of the best items the military ever produced. Then I saw yours. I was deploying to Afghanistan Jan 2012. The middle of the Bagram AB winter. We are on a high plateau at about 6000 feet above sea level. So cold and wind. I called you a few months before to talk about your suggestions. I work in Aeromedical Operations and would be spending time at my desk and out on the field configuring loading and unloading medical aircraft. Whatever time/weather it was. When we spoke, you suggested the field jacket liner and vest. I bought them both. It is now March 2021. I have had the liners for 9 years. This is my go to clothing item for any/everything I do. I camp I bring it. I run in it. I work in it(I work as an Athletic Trainer so am out covering practices and games in all weather. I have probably worn it every day from the day temp weather changes. it’s always in my car. I would say it is worn at least 200 days; every year. For the past 9 years. The SAME one!!

John, it gives me great pleasure to know that my products worked well for you while serving our country. I recall not so fondly the many hours I spent while in service working in adverse conditions so I know how much you appreciate products that worked for you during these adverse conditions.

All of that said I should like to once again point out for those who have not read my articles on the subject at hand before, Wiggy’s has never, does not now or will ever manufacture and sell any product that falls into the category of planed obsolescence. As can be read by John today and so many others before him over the years comments have flowed in supporting that our products just work well and last and last and last; I could go on.
