ReplyDeletethank you eugene that means a lot
ReplyDeleteWow, I just stumbled across your blog while googling Dyneema Gridstop. I want to start making my own outdoor clothing and gear, and your packs look really, really good. Unfortunately I already have a GoLite jam pack made of Dyneema Gridstop, but I hope that you sell lots of these!
