New Offering
Posted by jerry wigutow on Apr 17th, 2025
For several years, I have been asked by hunters for international orange garments.
I was left with several hundred yards of a 200-denier Oxford nylon fabric.
I have decided to offer three items in the international orange color:
- the Antarctic parka for $400.00,
- the vest shown on the website as a nomex vest, but the price is the same $90.00
- and the insulated head cover for $75.00.
These items are available to order now.
a history lesson
A HISTORY LESSON The following took place in the 1960’s. “Despite this prosperity, major shifts were occurring in American business and the workforce. Preexisting corporations were merging and becoming larger, more powerful conglomerates. Consumers increasingly were doing their shopping at discount chain stores and dining at inexpensive fast-food restaurants, leading to a decrease in the number of [...]

FICTION
AN ARTICLE FILLED WITH FICTIOUS AND ERRONEOUS INFORMATION A pair of Cadense Energy BOOST Performance Socks in Natural Black. The socks feature CELLIANT® technology developed by Hologenix that converts body heat into infrared energy, providing gentle compression that improves local circulation and quickens muscle recovery.

The World is Changing
The first comment I will make is that the USA, the country I was born into in 1941 at the start of World War two, is not the same country I am living in today nor has it been for quite a while. Having said that I want you to know that I have decided to [...]

reinvent the wheel?
THEY WANT TO REINVENT THE WHEEL Jerry, I enjoyed reading your “Wiggy’s News and Commentary” about the Canadian Military and their chuckleheads trying to reinvent the wheel, or change some laws of physics I guess!! Being retired USAF aircrew I do not claim to know everything there is to know about sleeping outside on the [...]
shipping to alaska
IMPORTANT SHIPPING INFORMATION FOR ALASKANS I have recently had the opportunity to get involved with shipments to Alaska. When we use Federal Express, the service is faster and the cost of one of our Antarctic bags is about $90.00 versus $150.00 via USPS. The downside is that F.E. does not go to areas away from the cities such [...]
what if
WHAT IF? For weeks or longer a major topic in the news media has been tariffs. I have come to realize that tariffs are nothing more than taxes. If the US government adds a25percent tariff on all products coming from Canada that means the taxes already in place are increased by 25 percent. Upon being told that [...]
freedom shelter bag and arctic parkas
FREEDOM SHELTER SLEEPING BAG Windproof, Awesome Quality I recently took this zero-degree bag on a camping trip in the mountains of North Carolina. It only dropped down to 28 degrees Fahrenheit, but it was insanely windy…. so windy that the tops of the trees were banging together, and I was worried about widow makers coming down. I [...]
