    where to buy Omni Tape?

    Anyone?

    Joann's, Thru-hiker, BDD, and Hammockgear don't sell it . I could use velcro, but I've heard Omni tape is better and I want to try it out. Can anyone help (I'm so close to being done with the TQ)

    Omnitape look alike...

    Gentle raindrops and mighty oceans...neither can exist without the other.
    Time heals all wounds...but it usually leaves a pretty big scar.

    Velcro brand calls it "Snag Free"

    Omni-tape must be another brand.

    Omni Tape is a Velcro trademark...Snag free is just eye candy packaging for women in Jo Anns, etc

    Free magic and some other name are knock offs.

    JRB introduced Omni tape to the outdoor gear stuff almost 7 years ago in the original under quilt , the Nest and then original MP weather shields... It is good stuff and available in 146 inch length at JRB in the FLOT kit.

    Good to know!

    I looked on the velcro site for Omni-tape, but came up with Snag-free only...

    Gotta love marketing...

    I found some "Snag Free" velcro at Hancock Fabrics in Utah during my last trip. Expensive. Go with Arrowhead or JRB!
