Tyler Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 I break climbing gear for a living. I addition I get to test out outdoor fabric and other gear on a regular basis. The obvious advantage to this is that I have a pretty good idea of what gear (climbing/camping/clothes) works well. On the down side I am now aware of how poorly most designers are. If they concentrated a bit more physics and funtion rather than visual appeal gear could be much better. Unfortunately, most companies make gear that sells instead of gear that works. This is most true when it comes to technical clothing. Hmmm... Sounds like an interesting job... I hope you post in the gear forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
