  8. Yikes, that looks like a death wish to me. Get some real instruction, especially in crevasse rescue. That doesn't mean you have to take a class, though I would recommend it... learn from someone who is experienced... a ton of crevasse rescue stuff can be learned in one day.

  23. I am interested if these guys fall through...
  24. once again... recalling my conversation with some of the head honchos of the dead bird clan: They made a point that with the weakening US dollar, they were losing tons and tons of money since their biggest customers were not worth as much as they used to be in comparison with the Canadian dollar. In order for arcteryx to continue to thrive as a company, and grow; they needed to make the move to china. They know their jackets are expensive, and cannot afford to raise their prices much more. The way it was explained to me, is that arcteryx has their own factory that was set up by their own people. I guess there are a lot of other companies that share factories with each other. (The North Face for instance) Interesting comments, I have enjoyed the read... thanks everyone.
  25. ok. How does everyone feel about this? I mean, anyone who seriously looks at the apparel industry can come to the conclusion that it was only a matter of time until the production was shifted offshore. As far as quality is concerned... I really haven't noticed a difference. I haven't had enough time to thrash my pro shell. I did have the opportunity to talk to the VP of arcteryx about this very subject... and he said that the truth of the matter is that no one really wants to pursue a career in sewing in vancouver. I can totally understand that... a lot of the worlds skilled labor in this department is in China. As far as the fact that the price of the jackets hasn't been lowered, is just wishful thinking. Arc'teryx is a business, and last time I checked, canada still has a capitalistic economy... so Arc'teryx is in existence to make money. We now live in a world where the market is global... this is a fact of life. Now, we all have the choice of what we want to buy and companies we want to support. Go ahead and choose an inferior garment, as long as it gives you warm fuzzies because you are doing something good. If you click that link that was provided, someone made the comment that they will continue to buy from patagonia because they have a clear mission statement about saving the earth etc. etc. I am not sure that they know that even patagonia makes a lot of their stuff in china. *gasp* I am really interested to see what other people think about this movement, and if they have found the quality of arcteryx to be lacking this season. I hope not... that was the major downfall of TNF. Hope it doesn't happen to Arc'teryx.
