He works out of Colorado, builds and sells excellent bags, and puts out one of the wildest newsletters imaginable. Ed Gillet uses and sells them --- my intro to them was on a trip with Ed --- and my longest use, a two week whitewater trip in northwest Canada and Alaska, was totally uneventful in a mid-weight bag. They get wet --- they stay warm. Wiggy can explain why --- and he <will>! Standard stuff --- no affiliation, happy user of products. See him at his web site, <www.wiggys.com>.
