    I just got some recently.

    I haven't had a chance yet to take them on a backcountry trip, but I've had them outside a lot and out on my latest weekend trip to the mountains, trying out lots of different ways to use them. They seem to be fairly versatile.

    The more I think about them the more they appeal to me. I think I will eventually put in a order for a set. One of my questions about them is if they are washable? I'm thinking campfire smell in the sleeves could get old if you cant wash them

    I was fortunate enough to get a set that were "seconds". Love those discounts!!!
    Haven't spent a lot of time in the cold w/ them yet, but I think I'll be liking them.
    I too will something make and joy in it's making

    Shugs video and the fact that the JRB Hood can be used inside out, and therefore velcroed to any vest with a standup collar sold me on the system.
