Dutch Shorts!

[Hangandy]

Oh yeah! Dutch rain wear. Or will it just be called 'Dutchwear'

I'll save some marketing time for you Dutch. Here are the slogan's for some of the new offerings;

"The stunning Dutch sweater is better, not wetter."
"So sleek and light, the shirt and the skirt won't hurt or hold dirt"
"Dutch dresses will be successes I guesses"
"A Dutch Coat on a boat may float like a tote, but you'll have a dry throat (because it's non-calendared making it amazingly breathable)"
"Take care with Dutch(underv)ear for there will be bears who stop and dare to stare at your comfy underwear, mon frere"
"Even Groot, that cute woody brute would look gut in a Dutch rain suit"
"A Dutch rain scarf won't make Aunt Jane barf"

Or how about;

"This is how the world ends, not with a bang, but with a shapely Dutch rain shawl, ya'll"
or
"Let us go then you and I, like a patient etherized in some comfy and slimming rainwear by that greatest of all hikers"
or
"If Vicky had worn a Dutch rain dickey (a type of false shirt-front) she could have hid that hickey from linebacker Ricky and then Dutch wouldn't have got his junior high backside kickeed" (Sorry Dutch, had to bring it up, though we all know you're tougher for that whuppin and could easily take him now).


Yep. Could have been a poet. It's not rocket surgery.

Problem with cloths is fitting all the weirdly shaped people.

Is that why you had me try on all those prototypes these weekend?

I am sure Dutch can make a much better poncho, in a long and short model, than those currently available. And ponchos fit all us weirdly shaped and vertically challenged or gifted people. Why am I so exited about Dutch doing rain gear? A poncho in galactic print

I am sure we will get around to it eventually. Problem with cloths is fitting all the weirdly shaped people. We do plan on releasing some new rain wear though.

How about rain shorts for guys who don't want to go the kilt route? Not to mention that they almost certainly would go on without removing boots!

Why not just do a kilt? Aside from traditional gender roles I haven't seen any issues with the kilts that pants/shorts would fix.

The shorts are meant for wearing while laundering yer skivvies during a thru hike or longer section hike, which means a kilt could be a little too 'breezy' for the intended function.

BTW I got some of these and like them. I was gonna get the ones from Luke's Ultralight right about the time he fell into the abyss, so I'm glad these are available. Advertised as weighing 31g, mine are 32.7g so close enough. Don't wear them inside out unless you want the attention... that's the really shiny side of Argon.

(Some poncho ideas are currently being explored...)
