THE KING HAS NEW CLOTHES AND THE INSULATION IS INVISIBLE!!!
Thermore Presents Invisiloft®: The Innovative Slim Insulation Offering High Warmth With Minimal Thickness
September 30, 2024
MILAN, Italy — September 30, 2024 — Thermore Group, which has been innovating in the apparel insulation-alternative sector for 50 years, announces the launch of Invisiloft®, the revolutionary slim insulation that combines exceptional warmth with unprecedented thinness. Invisiloft has been designed to offer extraordinary insulating capacity while minimizing bulk, a feature that marks a significant step forward in the design of technical garments.
Compactness and Versatility: Less bulky than traditional padding, one of the most significant advantages of Invisiloft is its ability to provide warmth without the typical volume of classic insulation, making it perfect for lightweight and functional garments such as high-performance sportswear. However, it’s not limited to sportswear. The innovative insulation is also well-suited for everyday wear, thanks to its packable nature, allowing jackets and outerwear to be easily stored in small spaces without compromising functionality.
Made with 100-percent recycled fibers from post-consumer PET bottles, Invisiloft offers the ideal combination of softness, lightness, and high thermal performance, perfectly meeting the needs of clothing brands seeking superior thermal performance combined with eco-friendly materials.
Sounds good as all B/S does.
I am not sure who their US bases customers are but I am sure those who they sell if any when using this trash will soon lose them.
I find it hard to believe or understand why a company such as thermore, primaloft or 3-m are constantly trying to out do each other with thinner and thinner layers of chopped staple polyester batting or in the case of 3-m who makes real trash polypropylene battings and all of them say the same thing; their flat bat is the warmest.
Is it any wonder that people each winter freeze in these garment?
Someone sent me an article about one of the California universities now experimenting with the way octopuses change color and somehow this applies to insulation changing from thin to thick. It is comical the ways scientists are evading the reality of how people stay warm, with bulky jackets. They are quick to say they have the newest as Gerry Cunningham said, “jimdandy new insulation”.
Ever hear of the Peter Principle where people raise in the ranks of business to their level of incompetence. Well, all of those in these companies have done just that.
One day they will all eat crow when they accept that continuous filament is and always will be best.
SHPPING PRODUCTDuring the months of July, August and September I receive numerous calls, emails and faxes from GSA contractors requesting prices for various quantities of sleeping bags etc. They have been getting calls from various military units who want pricing to figure out what they can buy with year end monies. The month of October is the end of the [...]
A REASON TO DRIVE TO GRAND JUNCTIONI drove to Grand Junction, CO (a 4 hour drive) just to take advantage of the Wiggy's sleeping bag sale. I tested out my new bag on a Scout trip this past weekend and just loved how comfortable I was. I usually start out cold, then warm up and get too hot, [...]
IT IS SCANDALOUSCanada is a small country compared to America so large government expenditures that fail, as is the case of the sleeping bags does not go unnoticed by the general population. A similar situation in the USA the general population never hears about.When it comes to sleeping bags, we spend several hundred million dollars on sleeping bags. Before [...]
THE SCANDLE CONTINUESWhat follows is but one of several articles I found on the internet.“Military has addressed sleeping bag issue, spokesperson tells National PostIn a statement to the National Post, the Department of National Defence said it has already taken action.If they, had they would have called me. LOLI do not know what action they have taken since nothing is [...]

A SCANDALThe sleeping bag debacle has become a scandal in Canada.I was talking with the fellow who will be bidding my hypothermia bag.Eventually I told him based upon the poor sleeping bags they probably had lots of hypothermia casualties which has caused them to look at getting them. I asked if he saw the article and he told me it was [...]
400 EVACUATION BAG CASULATY INSULATIONYes, the Canadian government has put out a solicitation for 200 of the Wiggy hypothermia bags with our Canadian NSN and a second 200 of a different hypo bag with a different Canadian NSN. The description of my hypo bag is accurate and is a product they have purchased from me. The second hypo bag [...]
FOLLOW UP TO CANADIAN NO SLEEP SLEEPING BAGSWhat the Canadian repot I believe left out was the probability that they had to medivac soldiers that were suffering frost bite or were becoming hypothermic. There was a reason for this to happen.KEEP IN MIND THE HUMAN BODY IS VERY FRAGILE IN THE ARCTIC.These soldiers are dressed for the arctic with several clothing [...]
About 10/12 years ago I was contacted by the civilian agency of the Canadian government to bid on sleeping bags for arctic use. I told them I was not interested because all prior experiences were failures for me. To put it mildly they begged and set up a private skype type of meeting with me. There 5 civilians and [...]
