NEW VIDEO
As I said in a recent newsletter I would have a video showing and explaining why the Lamilite/Climashield performs as well as it does in allowing moisture to move away from your body, the producer of the moisture regardless if it is footwear to headwear or in a sleeping bag.
In addition to giving explanation I also said that hats are being made by the Stormy Kromer Company for the fall and winter of 2017 and 2018 so all who have asked me to make Lamilite headwear can get headwear from a company that is about 100 years old or there about.
And finally I demonstrate how well a Wiggy’s Ultima Thule sleeping bag responds when it is removed from the double blister packing that I do mostly for the US Air Force.
Other tidbits of information deal with the fact that several sporting goods chains have either closed their doors or filed chapter 11. In the east Eastern Mountain Sports is gone. In the Midwest MC Sports is liquidating. On the west coast Sport Chalet is gone. Then of course across the country Sports Authority is gone. There have been some 8 and 9 store chains to bite the dust as well as mom and pop shops. And finally I read that the 10 store chain that has a web site known as Moosejaw has been purchased by Walmart. As I see it the consuming public is going to have a smaller and smaller choice of products to buy unless the companies that sell to the retailers expand their selling activities on the internet.
I find this tragic because a large number of people will have lost their jobs. I wonder how other industries are doing as this is the only industry that I have familiarity with.
The video maybe up this evening or tomorrow. Thanks for watching.
