I got an Arcteryx Gamma Hoodie for those morning dashes between the car and the office when its raining. I liked the understated black color and the stylish fit. I got it in the black color and goes well with black jeans and my Steve Madden shoes, capped with a simple black t-shirt. However, last Saturday while sipping on my hot caffienated beverage of choice in my coffee shop, I noticed that some of the threads have already come undone. I thought we had exported manufacturing competence to the third world? I mean, I realize these people were probably still out gathering furs of animals for trade just last year, but what does it take to train these Canadians how to stitch a thread? Do we need to send up some missionaries to convert these heathens into fine Italian tailors?
