i guess as long as they use this type of seams we'll continue to see blowout problems. did you mention the bike commuting part to customer service? curious if that affects the warranty. hope the terratex ones will return at some point. i've managed to keep my terratex voronois together by repairing loose seam tape spots myself. but i managed to get some seam tape glue on the exterior of the black ones after the tape inside the fly came loose and haven't been able to remove the stain.

demlo overshirt has got me excited for a veilance again after a couple of lackluster seasons

the seam tape is a big issue. i've found that using mcnett seam sealer to repair loose spots as soon as they appear goes a long way but in the long run it's an unfixable problem. does the nyco exhibit a lot of fading?

Anyone have any input on the long-term durability of the cordura nyco voronois?

mcnett seam sealer works pretty well

at some point outlier realised there are a handful of reddit weirdos that will buy literally anything they can think up and now their business model revolves around that.

yeah imho stotz doesn't 'develop patina' it just ends up looking ragged as fuck.

out of three epic glacier jackets i used to own i have one left and it's quite pilled but it hasn't faded in any noticeable way. nylon tends to be really colorfast.

the two things that pill epic glacier something fierce are velcro and heavier denier nylons found in gear (straps, pack surfaces). on pants used in a city context it's probably not as pronounced of a problem.

holy shit they need to fire the fuck out whoever is art directing the site and photography these days

old acr is so fucking cool

anyone id the garments in that pic?

nah, i'm mistaken. the thread is aramid but the fabric itself is a modacryl/cotton blend.

no the later non-melange fire resistant material. the melange model has been a long term grail piece for me.

the p10 in aramid CH is hands down the most comfortable pant i've ever worn.
