I'll be honest; this was a lot more interesting that I'd expected. And it has me thinking.. maybe I only need a couple of pieces of 100-year gear and I can ditch most of my wardrobe. They do seem more designed for the tall, thin, outdoorsman rather than the short, stocky, kettlebell swinger. Ah well.
Great episode as always. I love this stuff. It's great to see people enter such a densely populated industry with a fresh take and really interesting products. That nomad hoodie looks amazing.
