LAMILITE SWEATER TESTIMONIAL

I've been sold on Carhartt for years.

For years we have bought Carhartt outerwear. I used to work in the oilfield and at that time and for years, I knew of nothing that would stop Wyoming wind and be warm enough to work in, especially in winter. Being a cotton shell, it wears well, but will get soaked when it is raining or snowing, but also allows safety around pipeline welding. Even when stained by crude oil, it would clean up with "oil field salty" stains. When real bad, I would take them in to the dry cleaners but that shortened the garments' life. One thing that I noticed a bunch was the wear through at the cuffs near where the ribbed cuffs were sewn in. This is where that story stops and a new one begins. My wife and I purchased sweaters for each of us about three years ago. I wear mine more than she wears hers, but we were talking the other day about how ratty the Carhartt’s get especially around the cuffs after not even a year. The cotton also loses a lot of coloring with multiple washings as well. Back to the sweaters: they have been laundered a bunch. They still pretty much look like new. How about the material around the cuffs? Not a sign of wear, and I don't baby my every day wear jackets. This Supplex material is amazing! The other thing we have noticed is that these are our go-to jackets in any weather. They are warm when wet, and the temperature seems to be self-regulating. 50 degrees or 10 degrees Fahrenheit, these are comfortable even though I usually only wear t-shirts plus maybe a light knit sweater under these Wiggy's Sweaters. Jerry, all I can figure is all your discussions about moisture regulation through the Lamilite has got to be the reason for this comfort through such a temperature span. It does everything I ask for it to do, but now I only put an old Carhartt on when I'm welding, grinding or plasma cutting.

The Lamilite sweater is the single largest sold jacket I make.

What about this Wiggy's stuff?

We bought this as the first item from this company a number of years ago. I'm happy to report, no surprise to Jerry, that this stuff he calls Lamilite is amazing! We tested this immediately after it arrived by my always cold wife. She usually uses those fuzzy blanket throws that you pick up at the box stores for $8 or so. Took some convincing to get her to try a $70+ throw blanket. Now I can't get it away from her when she's watching TV or reading! We experimented throwing it over the bed blankets and found that there is a noticeable difference even there. This got our interest up in the rest of Jerry's products. Now we are hooked.

TESTIMONIALS

Today I received for the very first time two testimonials from the same person in one day, however about two weeks ago Bill sent me a separate testimonial which is on the list of testimonials on the web site.

I like to point out that the primary component of most of my products is insulation and that insulation of course is Lamilite.

Sometimes I wonder how much attention is given to my articles by the people at other companies that sell what they call insulation so they can read about my insulation working because I never see any testimonials about what they call insulated products from companies that use their product. They do show people they pay to use their product say wonderful things about it. Obviously the companies that sell garments using these so called insulations do not get letters of recognition as to how well their product performs.

When was the last time gore or one of their customers received praise for the performance of the garment made with the gore material. To the best of my knowledge they never have received such praise. I know that statement to be true because if one person could praise it there would be many more. The same would hold true for the other products sold as insulation. Nobody praises these materials as well except the company that sells the material.

From my perspective the praise for my products always goes to the Lamilite/Climashield insulation, it makes all of my insulated products the best products of their type on the market and I take a great deal of pride in making that statement.

So, once again I am very appreciative for all of the testimonials that I receive,

On a completely different subject, ice cream. I have had a sweet tooth for my entire life and ice cream is my favorite desert. The problem I have had in recent time is the sugar content. Therefore, I have stayed away from it for a while, until now. I heard about banana ice cream, I eat lots of bananas so I looked up the recipe. There are many but the one I chose to try is bananas and heavy cream. Peel the bananas cut them in chunks and freeze them. Once frozen put in a blender and ad some of the heavy cream. It will not take long for it to blend creamy. It is quite good. Now if someone will raise chocolate bananas that would be great for me.
