truths about down

ONE PERSONS THOUGHT ABOUT TUESDAY’S ARTICLE

Hi Mr. Wiggy,

I just read your article 'Continuous filament fiber will never be replaced'.

I think you should print it out, frame it, and put it on an office wall as it clearly states why Wiggy's Products do the job and the competitors don't work.

Sincerely,

Lee

I responded to Lee telling him the article would be on the internet forever and it is also on my web site forever, so I need not frame it for my wall at this time. But I am very grateful for his thought about my explanation.

Maybe some day some of the other companies that they make or have made for them outerwear will wake up and realize that they can make far better outerwear if they use Climashield or possibly Lamilite.

I did not mention down in the previous article because it is truly obsolete.

When you put on a down jacket it loves you and when you put on a Lamilite jacket it loves you the same. I have seen people put on a Lamilite jacket and comment it feels just like wearing a down jacket. The similarity end there. All your body produced moisture is absorbed by the down so the feel changes as it gets heavier because it is moisture laden. Lamilite lets the moisture out of the garment so the soft luxurious feel remains the same.

All the down garment makers like to talk about the mere fact that you the customer trace where the down came from. I think you would know it came from ducks or geese. But of course, their motivation is to demonstrate how kind they are to these birds even though they are killing them. If you are concerned about chemical sensitivity that is not a problem because they use chemicals in the processing so if aren’t chemically sensitive it will bring you closer to becoming chemically sensitive and if you are wearing a down jacket or using a down sleeping bag will activate the problem. There are a variety of reasons why you should not buy down anything these days since Lamilite will do everything down is supposed to have done without any of the negatives associated with down.
