Hands down Wiggy make the best kit going.”
I recently received the above testimonial. It appeared on my YouTube video “Why you need fishnet underwear”. Normally I read all testimonials regardless of where they show up on my web site and leave them for customers and potential customers to find for themselves, but this one is special to me so I have chosen to make it very public.
I do not know who Wolf Roman is so I do not know if this is his birth certificate name, however I do know from his email to me, i.e. the testimonial, he is obviously a soldier. I am quite sure there are numerous soldiers who are users of Wiggy’s bags specifically as well as many of my other products who will feel good about owning the Wiggy product based upon reading Wolf’s account. This is also excellent information for consumers who do not own a Wiggy bag and are thinking about getting one.
For those interested reading the greater majority of the testimonials you will find the number one comment is “I was wet the bag was wet but I was warm and sleep all night and when I awoke I was dry and the bag was dry”, it permeates the testimonials. When I first started making the Wiggy’s bags I only knew I had the very best insulation on the planet but this action I was unaware of until customers started writing to me about it.
Over the years whenever I have had the opportunity to make a presentation I always mention this very important attribute of the Lamilite.
There is no other insulating material that I know of that has this very special characteristic, certainly not down, even the down that is treated to be water-repellent. If it is not Lamilite made from Climashield continuous filament fiberfill, it does not have it.
Receiving testimonials is always a pleasure but Wolf’s is special, So Wolf if you get to read this please know that I am very grateful for you to share you experience with me.
