Great review TR - Looks like a good Company. To bad on the QC problem that you found.
I wish companies that oriented and/or market items to be dual used wouldn't have different "sides" or "houses" for their factories. Once I had ordered some mountian hardwear sleeping bags for the team. Got some really nice -15 bads that were to be grey in color, when we got them they were bright VS-17 Red. Yes ,they were great for civie climbing/mountianeering for that IMPRO VS-17 Panel-Sleeping bag to signal for that Helo when you get stuck up on K2. But not really great for that snow hide site.
Well, its good that it still works for what you somewhat needed it for. Wear it softly.
