Finally JRB believes in light weight, low volume, comfortable, simple solutions with multiple use options and is dedicated to keeping prices down.
Bottom line, Hooch, is that we think saveing money is a more attractive selling point.
FWIW, as a customer service, like when a tarp must be shipped to a trail drop, JRB has performed this service for hikers... If you have a special need it is always best to contact the manufacturer, especially the cottage industry as they, any of them, can and willingly perform service far beyond the major maufacturering sources.
