Hey guys. First- thanks to Rick Bin for the platform! I started a company this year with my old medic. We have our first product out now. It’s a synthetic quilt that you can configure to wear over your shoulders as a static layer, for glassing or hanging out in camp etc, and it is configurable into a sleeping quilt with a foot box as well. It weighs 16oz. It is made in the USA. We are veteran owned with no outside loans or financing. We donate 5% of our profits to a 501c that was founded to provide immediate support to the families and Rangers of 1/75.

We will have a table at the Pop up Preview at SHOT this year where we will be introducing several new products.

Please check out our Website or you can find us on Instagram and Facebook as well. Here is an 24hcr Image gallery

Nice.

Always cool to see folks wanting to innovate and bring products to market. I’ll definitely keep an eye out.

Good luck!

I'll be visiting at SHOT.

Rick- we look forward to seeing you!

Madmooner, thanks for the good word, we’ve got a mailing list on the website or you can follow us on Facebook and Instagram IOT keep better apprised of our situation as it develops.


Guys, at 16oz, and $155 there isn’t anything on the market that comes close to the level of performance and versatility provided by our quilt. It is a rectangular 80”x56”. We use a 1.1oz 20d microgrid ripstop nylon shell with a DWR. it is a very silky feeling shell not stuff hard crinkly or plasticky. We use Climashield Apex 2.6 insulation, the pinnacle of function and durability in synthetics.


I use it as a stand-alone sleeping bag inside a bivy sack or if sharing a tent down to about 40 degrees I use it in conjunction with another one or a sleeping bag as temperatures descend. I’m able to dry out wet merino or synthetic layers and socks between the 2 super b’s or between the super b and the sleeping bag while sleep. I use it to keep warm anytime I’m static- whether it’s glassing, overwatching a meadow or eating lunch. I’m looking forward to seeing how you guys like it.

So you have had it down to 40 degrees, with just a pad/tent for sleeping?
Posted By: 175rltw Re: New company - 11/17/19
The industry standard rating for climashield 2.6 is 50 degrees.


I will run it down 40 in a tent with a pad and another person in there doing the same (not sharing a blanket each with there own)It isn’t comfortable that way in a tent alone.

I use it with a pad inside a bivy with my mid layers on down to 40 solo happily.

I personally use it down to the mid 30s in that fashion if it’s only an overnight or a weekend, but I do not sleep through the night anyway, one more excuse to toss and turn isn’t killing my productivity over a short trip. I look at basically any rating and add 10 degrees to it if it’s for more than 2 nights. My rating, or any other company’s pretty much, simply because of the cumulative nature of of how the stresses of being exposed to the elements and active over multiple days operate on and affect your body and your mentality.

If you are running just the blanket and a pad with your clothes on 50 is comfortable.

I’ve had it down in the 20’s with no pad no bivy- just the clothes I was wearing on a couple occasions where it made more sense to suck it up for the night than it did to burn the boot leather both ways in the dark. It’ll definitely turn a survival situation into just another long night


This thing is at its best and most functional/versatile when you’re dealing with upper 20’s to 50ish degrees. When moisture Managment is at its most crucial, and keeping yourself dry, and warm through big temperature changes, and varied activity levels is most challenging. Once weather is <28 sustained we pretty much all are going for more specialized kit, though I still carry and use mine when it’s cold.

Thanks. Seems like a good option for early season alpine hunts in my area.

It’s Killer evening attire for the crocs around the campfire set as well.

Best of luck with your new venture!
Always great to see a small company get started
Posted By: prm Re: New company - 11/17/19
Very cool.

I can vouch for the concept. I’ve used another brand for a couple years and it’s been a gamechanger for me. I wrap it around my 15deg bag to stay warm when temps were single digit or less and also I wrap it around me when glassing, especially my feet. But the one I was using is my wife’s, so now I need one. I’ll check these out.
Posted By: 175rltw Re: New company - 11/18/19
I spent enough nights in a bivysack and Poncho liner and pulling security behind a 240 wrapped in a poncho liner to know the concept was solid- even if the execution the army provided was a little lacking. This is basically all I ever wanted that poncho liner to be. I learned to sew a few years ago after shoulder surgery when I couldn’t do anything else really. I worked this up after a few iterations and I’ve had one in my Pack ever since.

When its compressed to pack size, what are the approximate dimensions?

If it doesn't take up much space in a pack it might real nice to have along for extended waits or glassing.

That’s the whole point- light enough and compressible enough it’s always there for you. I don’t use a stuff sack personally. squish it into my pack along an edge if you get what I’m saying but I’ve got one sitting here in an 8x8x6 stuff sack right now so it’s a little bit bigger than my kill kit. If I can still update the image gallery with a picture of one stuffed I will.



MCH- thank you Sir!!! I just printed your label and it will go out in the morning. You should see your Super B by Thursday I think. Can’t wait for you feedback!!

!


Squishing it in along an edge was, rolling up, folding to some extent was just what I was thinking. Sounds great!

Thanks for the info.

Heck yeah. Hope you decide to check one out! I couldn’t update that image gallery anymore but I am going on post this picture to our Facebook page to show it compressed. I’m not out in Idaho right now- I’m there most summer and just left a couple weeks ago- but depending where you are I might be able to line you up with someone running one out there now if you shoot me a PM, I’ve got buddies there that live in them.

Ordered. Just what I was looking for! Good luck with new company.
Posted By: 175rltw Re: New company - 11/18/19
Thanks!! Just printed your label. I’m headed to the post office with yours and MCH’s right now.

I’ve got one anchorage bound, I can pack one for Colorado too!!
Posted By: 175rltw Re: New company - 11/19/19
Well, with these things about to start landing with you guys I figured I need throw up a gallery with a few pictures and an explanation of how the 2 primary configurations of the Super B are achieved. It’s far from comprehensive but this thing is intuitive enough I doubt y’all will have issues. I just wanted to give you guys a familiarization mainly.

This link is to a 24HCF gallery not offsite.

Just got mine in the mail today! Dam that was fast. Looks awesome, quality appears to be very good! I can't wait to put it to use.
Posted By: 175rltw Re: New company - 11/22/19

The way the weather was opening week of rifle you might have a real winter on your hands this year plenty of chance to wrap up!! Bet You’ll be happy to have it next spring chasing bears too!

I see it getting used a lot out wolf hunting and field hunting ducks and geese!

Bears? Did someone say Bears? I am going to try to kill me one of them this Spring.
Posted By: 175rltw Re: New company - 11/22/19
Well, I’m almost out of our initial run of Super B’s. We are working out a short run of them with the materials we had on hand- but more exciting than that, today we took delivery of our first order of Climashield Apex 3.6 and we should have 3.6 oz Super B’s available 1st week of December, alongside the 2.5oz Super B’s.

To those who asked- why it’s called Super B = Superior Blanket
Posted By: Vek Re: New company - 11/22/19
I've used something similar as a topquilt for cold elk hunts - it's a game changer. Pull one of these up over your 15 degree bag and you're warm to low single digits...I'd be all over this if I needed one.
Posted By: David_Walter Re: New company - 11/23/19
Just looked at the gallery pictures. It’s a quilt with no zippers, right?
Posted By: 175rltw Re: New company - 11/23/19
No zippers. It utilizes Toggles with 550 cord loops and draw cords as it’s fastening system
Posted By: 175rltw Re: New company - 11/24/19
Guys just a heads up. I’m going to ship orders out Monday AM and then we will be suspending shipping until the following Monday Dec 2. If you Order this weekend you will have your Super B thanksgiving week, as everything is going to go out USPS priority. If you Order during thanksgiving week, you will get a tracking number but your package will not hit the post until dec2.
Posted By: NDHuntr Re: New company - 11/25/19
Sorry for the delay. Arrived just before I headed out for weekend pheasant hunt. Shipping was fast. The Super B is LIGHT and build quality is good. Done with big game for the year but it might get used for coyotes in the near future. I think it will be a nice supplement to puffy pants and jacket for long sits spotting for deer/elk.

Thanks!
Posted By: cwh2 Re: New company - 11/26/19
Mine was waiting for me when I got home. Looks like it will be useful for a lot of situations. Kind of wish I had it this weekend, as I ended up doing some unplanned hiking around in the cold.
Posted By: KLM Re: New company - 12/05/19
Just got mine out of the dryer (yup I'm a bit anal so it got washed before use). Looks like a well put together and super light/packable. I'm looking forward to adding it to my pack and using it next week. Super gracious seller.

Ordered mine today as late Christmas present for myself; excited to see it!
Posted By: efw Re: New company - 01/06/20
Great looking product I’m hoping to try it out on the trail in next couple of weekends!

Is the insulation ok with being compressed for long periods of time or will it lose its effectiveness?
Posted By: 175rltw Re: New company - 01/07/20
Thanks for your purchase!!

Climashield Apex is what we find to be the most durable option available for insulation. It is resilient when it comes to being compressed, but in order to maximize its effectiveness and performance lifespan we advise against storing your Super B in a highly compressed state for extended periods.
