No, I don't have a "dog in the fight". I sell sleeping bags that work even if they are wet. ID does not. LOL
ID, past or present, does not come close to the thousands of Wiggy bags sold each year.
In the dogfighting world, ID is a Bichon Frise.
Amazed at how guys will put themselves on the line for the same weight as two, three cups of coffee, but to each his own.
ID simply can't compete, neither will Kuiu with their latest offering. There is no new technology, just new marketing. "Hey, let's spray the down with DWR and see if that will make it work." We'll see... Hello, would you please tell me what brands you sell or make so that I can avoid purchasing any of your products. I'm sorry, Sir. What about that post did you find offensive to your sensitivities? Was it the reference to a twice-sold, failed company? The reference to the small, white lap-dog breed Bichon Frise? Are you one who squeals when he puts an extra pound on his back? Or, the reference to another gimmick that will trick a new generation of buyers into believing that a down bag will work when it is wet? You guys are comical. I'm witty, so let's play� But only when I'm not busy; selling sleeping bags and insulated clothing in ALASKA.

Oh I am sorry, you act like you actually manufacture the items and hold sway in the industry, and I seem to have confused arrogance with knowledge and shall not do so again. It is entirely my fault that I mistook you for something that matters. Have a good life.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

Sir, could you please provide (via PM) your home address, so I can mail to you the invoice for my dry cleaning bill as a result of your above comment.
Kind regards

Some people do more damage to their business than they know on here.
I've seen more well-shot game lost with TSXs than any other premium bullet.

LOL.
Losers who know nothing of insulation beyond the limits of their checkbook balances.
No technical knowledge here that I do not offer.
Have fun replacing your bags every three years.

Losers who know nothing.... Man...you're not the same guy you used to be, or maybe I had you figured wrong. It's one thing to address a product with comments good or bad, but personal attacks is crossing the line. Zero class. Btw...my ID Renassaince bag is 12 years old this year, the primaloft and pertex are like the day I bought it.

Personal attacks are one thing, you kind of get used to that here, but not so much on the backpacking forum, and almost never from purveyors of gear. It's obviously self-defeating. Obvious to most anyway.
But facts are another thing. If wiggy's bags were as good as Taylor thinks they are, and other products were as lacking, everyone would be using wiggy's bags.
Few do. And that's a fact.

After 4 stream crossings and my Wiggy's stream crossing boots leak because of SILT? Whot a crock'ocrap!! Next time I'm in Anchortown, I'll make sure I don't stop by their store!! Bear in Fairbanks
