Can you source this again for the Jarbridges? Or is it gone for good?

I got approved a couple weeks ago to get more this year but the price is up there a good step from our normal. We can get it but it would be on a special order basis.

Apex ? is this a type of insulation and if so what are the pros and cons....
I am still 18 but with 52 years of experience !
APEX is a variation of Climashield. It's lighter, warmer, and packs smaller. Paul used it in a few Jarbridges. I lucked up and got one from a member here recently and it friggin rocks!
I have a regular Climashield Jarbridge as well, and there is most definetely a difference.
No Cons for Apex, only Pros.
Correct me if I'm wrong Mr. Paul.
Thanks for the info

Interesting that there is that much dif. As far as the warmth to weight goes, Thru-Hiker posts that it has a CLO of .82 for a sq.yd thick enough to weigh 1 oz. Which is almost identical to the rating of XP if mem serves. In fact, even Combat had a CLO of about .76/0z if mem serves, still not way down.
Am I correct in the above? But maybe it compresses more and maintains loft after compression longer and better? Is all Climashield silicon coated?
I'm not much on measuring technicals, but I own an Apex Jarbridge and a regular Climashield Jarbridge, and the Apex is lighter, more compressible, and I haven't been cold in it yet. When I go backpackin, the Apex is in my pack. I like it more than the old Phoenix I had.
