Three Hours Outside in the Jacket Liner
PERSONAL TESTING
Received our package that included a jacket liner for the wife as she liked mine.
SECOND JACKET LINER EVAL:Yesterday, temps at 22F, I wore a T shirt of 50/50 poly that I had on while tending my wood stove. Over that was a light vest that I wore as I needed a few pockets.Over all that I wore my Wiggy’s jacket liner. I was planning to stay outside briefly. Got sidetracked and the time ended up being about 3 hours of sweat free, chill free, comfort. This was another very pleasant personal test for me with less clothing under the jacket liner than first test a few days ago.How far I could push the jacket liner and remain comfortable is my personal evaluation. I am 69, 5’-10”, 190lbs and stay very active. I spent the 3 hours inspecting / clearing fence lines. Head covering was the Ducksback Balaclava with an old neck gaiter.
Oh, the wife packaged up her Christmas purchased Puffy jacket for return to seller. She wore her just received Wiggy’s jacket liner. We did our usual small low power LED light test. I could read with the light that penetrated the Puffy. Not so with the jacket liner. Thing is your liner is designed to be just that, a liner. Yet, it is better than many jackets.
Are we happy and warm…Oh Yea!

Jerry,
I have so much respect for you and your products. Everything we purchased from you works!

With respect to Dave’s letter I am learning more than ever people who use products I make do not just write a short note that the product worked for them, they more and more present significant information.
I get to read time that one spends in the field. In Dave’s case he found he could stay out for a longer amount of time than expected. When you are warm you just continue to do whatever versus shortening your time out if you get cold. The reason is always the same, no moisture accumulation in your clothing that can affect you.
They, the others who write include the various layers that are worn as well.
Then you get to know the temperatures that they are out in. I am sure Dave had his neckline open and therefore most of the perspiration he was giving off moved out of his clothing through his neckline. All of his movements were creating that bellows action which further helped the warm moist air (sweat) move out of his clothing.
