    Simply Light Designs Trail Duster

    I got new toys from Simply Light Designs. I've had my eye on his Trail Duster for a while now and finally pulled the trigger on one. As soon as it arrived I strung it up in my living room to take a look at it. It's beautiful and the workmanship is truly top notch. It’s made from 1.1 silpoly, is 12 foot long, and I really like the extra coverage that it provides. His seam sealing job is the nicest I've seen too. I don't know why I waited so long to get one of these.

    I love that Jared does the seam sealing as I hate to do this. It's an added bonus on a great product.

    Didn't you have a tarp made that exact same color with another vendor?

    No, I made myself a matching hammock that color the other day though. I posted a photo of it in one of the facebook groups we are both in.

    Same. I really like this tarp. Even at 12 foot it comes in at 17.6 ounces in the stuff sack.

    Good looking tarp you've got there. The Trail Duster and Wind Haven are the only two tarps I don't have from Jared. Guess I have to step up my game.

    That added seam sealing is a bonus. His work is always top notch!

    yep, I just bought a tarp from another vendor because it was on sale and I had to seam seal it myself and I will never buy another tarp that I have to seam seal myself again!

    Nice. Love the color combo. (Slowly evolving from my “cammo need to blend in”)
