Default RE: Gray Wolf Woolens? What's the fuss all about?

Whitehorn - actually, I did. I found out that "wolfskin" is really just polyester warp knit with a waterproof coating - the same thing that Cabela's or WhitewaterOutdoorspeddles everyday. I'd be willing to bet that 90% of us didn't know that before this whole conversation began.

I showed you a $50 Predator camo coat made of the same "warp knit" (without the waterproofing).

We've had a few people come forward, who actually own the stuff - and tell us that they eitherwouldn't buy it again, or would only buy the base model warp-poly unlined.

Conversely, we've heard from satisfied customers, like you, GregMO and WKPTodd.

So, by way of review, we've heard:
[ul][*]The Good[*]The Mixed Emotions[*]And the Ugly.[/ul]
That, my friend, is as impartial as it gets. Contrary to what you may believe - I couldn't care less about the prestigious corporate name. In fact, I'm usually raging against the machine and pullingfor the little guy.

I have no dog in this fight. I'm just trolling the waters to see if I can figure out why his pants cost $189 (unlined with pockets) and mine cost $29.99 at Gander Mountain. A 600% jump in price is nothing to sneeze at.
