howdy...…friends! Take a look inside our 2009 catalogue and see what we’ve been making to help expand the fun and inspiration of your next adventure. If you’re new to

the Pacific Outdoor Family, then we’ve got some work to do to tell you about what we do and how we do it. Initially, Pacific Outdoor Equipment is a company that’s

hard for most folks to describe but our mission is really quite simple. We’re not an environmental company, but we are innovators that care about the environment. We

aren’t a sewing factory but we make great fabric based outdoor gear. We aren’t a company that’s so big as to forget about all the customers and friends who have

helped make us successful — because chances are, we’ll see you on the trail or on the river. We’re a small company, with an eye on the big, blue planet, which builds

innovative gear from welded fabrics for human powered sports. Some days we feel like we’re reciting the twelve points of

the scout law, but what we have done is distilled our motivations down to 4 points on our companies compass: good gear = less waste, if it isn’t fun

why do it, do everything with a code of integrity and responsibility – do no harm, and innovate relentlessly. We take this compass into the mountains and rivers around

Bozeman, Montana, where we’ve established our operation, so we can develop gear in real time, in real conditions, and allow the products to evolve close to their

origins. Of course we care what our accountants say, but we know that true success is measured by how many extra nights our customers spend in the outdoors.

Before we tell you about 2009 and what we’re doing new, how we’re continuing to innovate and what stays the same, please let us take this opportunity to say, “Thank

you, and thank you again!” Thank you for supporting a company that’s giving its all, trying to do a better job to push the boundaries of performance products and stellar

service. We’re looking forward to a great year and it’s going to be because of you!

Pacific Outdoor Equipments’ 2009 line is rolling with the times; we’re continuing to focus our energy on building gear that will go the distance, whether on the trails and rivers, on your bike or in your daily life. Global resources are limited and we all need to make a commitment to making gear that lasts and is worth keeping around. We call it “Good Gear = Less Waste.”

Diving into what’s new; we’ll start with our continued commitment to improving our paradigm shifting sleeping pads. The Peak Oyl Series pads are part of a market transformation in our manufacturing process that we’re undertaking in an environmentally sensitive area we haven’t addressed before. The series are the top performers of three and four season backcountry use with minimalist weight

and bulk, the sensation of more width, and built with recycled fabrics, valves, and a foam core that’s derived from renewable Palm Oyl. Why Palm Oyl? Palm Oyl isn’t a

food replacement crop like so many other bio-plastics. It has a shorter distance to travel to our manufacturing site than plant alternatives or petroleum, so it uses less

carbon in transport and no matter where you are politically, you’ll have to agree that it’s best to use materials that don’t require military action in order to obtain them.

In our paddle sports products, we continue our dedication to PVC Free paddle sports items. Our Global Commute collection has two extensions for biking activities

with the Randoneer and One-Less-Car Series. Both utilize easy mounting R&K hardware, generous reflective accents, and an innovative approach to construction and

load stability on the bike. With gas prices rising and global warming issues at hand, our new bike items help make daily bike use a reality.

So if we can do anything for you, or if you are headed to Bozeman for a visit, please give us a call, drop us an email or stop by and say, “Howdy!” We’re here to

support your pursuits and make sure you’re out having fun. Have a great 2009 and go do something to make the world better, get outside for some fun and focus on the blue around you!

So you love getting outdoors.

Well, our outdoor experiences are changing as a result of industry.

Our environmental positions are often judged by who we associate with. This is important as

it continues to be imperative that we support the good people who are daily and diligently

doing good environmental work out there. But is this the limit of environmental stewardship?

No way. We also need to be the most serious critics of our own internal business. Like all

manufacturers, we produce a product that consumes resources, both physical materials

that are contained in the product and energy to manufacturer and ship it. We do everything

we can to reduce this consumption by choosing materials with solid durability. We upcycle

trimmed, otherwise discarded, materials into other products. We put it all together with an eye

on longevity, and keeping these materials out of the landfill and in use for as long as possible.

We tune our machines and evolve our processes to streamline everywhere possible.

We also strive for balance. Just like a scale, we need to judge the balance of our daily

activities. A couple of years ago we implemented a program to offset the energy consumed

in our Bozeman offices and are in the process of placing one solar panel online for each

employee that works here, off-setting the load of their computer, telephone and a desk lamp.

Not a bad equation to draw. This is only a first step. But we believe an important one globally,

but also locally for us. Take a look at your everyday activities. Every time you go to the gas

station, coffee house, or gear shop, see how you can achieve balance; turn off a light when

you leave the room, stop using disposable cups, get a dual flush toilet, walk somewhere you

need to go, be a balancer.

The best thing we can all do is critically consider even the small acts of our everyday lives.

You’ve heard the popular saying, “Think global, act local.”There’s some real truth to that.

sleepingpads

We take sleeping pads seriously. It is not just a business for us, but a quest. We like to help people get a good nights sleep. How do we do that? We make sleeping mats that are designed to enhance your sleep system, by directly matching the attributes of the sleeping pad to those of your sleeping bag. You know the key details like the right insulation for the seasons, the right length for you, the right gender, and of course the right amount of weight savings or cush. Without matching these attributes to your sleeping bag, you are at the mercy of the weaker link.

So the next time you think about sleeping outdoors ask yourself some pertinent questions; what season of use is my pad for? Is it my size? Is it built specially for my gender? Is it supportive enough? Is it the right weight? If your pad doesn’t match up with you and your needs then maybe it s time to go talk to your local specialty Outdoor Retailer and see how Pacific Outdoor can help you improve your sleep system.

it takes a few small acts & a whole lot of balance:

good gear =less waste

Good gear should equal less waste,

especially at a time when “Only six percent of the US Economy’s

flow of materials actually ends up in products.” (Ayres, 1999)

“Only one percent of the total North American material flows ends up

in, and is still being used within, products six months after their sale.”

(Hawken, Lovins, L. Lovins, 1999)

This equates to a huge amount of “waste” being put into the landfills, that

can’t be sustained. As Al has pointed out in his slide show, we need to

rethink how we use and consume everything, including our backpacking

gear. Focus needs to be put not only on the materials being used in

products, but how the products are being designed. No longer should

“designed obsolescence” exist in a designer’s vocabulary. Making good

gear that lasts does more than just assure you that your equipment will

perform for you when you want or need it the most. It also reduces our

personal foot print and makes us a less conspicuous consumer. Every item

that we use in our daily and/or recreational lives has an embodied energy.

This is the energy required to create that item and get it to the point of

first use. Durable good gear makes this embodied energy investment go

longer. So when you study products that are “environmentally sensitive”

remember to look at its durability — which isn’t purely a function of the

raw materials that go into it, rather it is also a function of how the item is

put together. With this in mind, we over build, for longevity, to help keep

our gear in the outdoors, out of the landfills, and our energy and resource

use to a minimum. None of us can afford to waste; waste energy during

production or transport, waste the time of the individual(s) building the

product, or simply waste by including unnecessary materials in a product

(e.g. over packaging). It’s all about being a better big-blue citizen

The bottom line is simple:

When you waste your natural resources, you waste your people. This

kind of waste is expensive economically, socially and environmentally,

and will never be acceptable, and has brought us to Our Mantra:

how we make our sleeping pads:

Pacific Outdoor Equipment’s sleeping pads are the culmination of a few bright ideas, lots of research, long hours of contemplation, and another healthy dose of time in the field. When we log hours in the mountains and on the rivers, we see the true test of our success. Empirical data only suggests outcome. The field is where it’s proven.

Our innovations include: specialized foam cores, performance fabrics, unsurpassed construction and meticulous quality control. Foam structure determines your comfort level. From both the support and insulative perspectives all our pads are made with highly structured open cell polyurethane foam that yields high R-values, fast inflation times, surface smoothing support, and long-life resilience. In cold conditions, your pad plays a significant role in maintaining your warmth while sleeping. Highly structured foam and activity specific cores provide for the maximum insulation to weight ratio. We’ve designed a variety of foam cores to match the needs of specific users, from alpinists to car campers.

Lateral coring minimizes bulk, reduces fill time, and maintains very high R-values. Our Matrix vertical die cutting eliminates weight and bulk substantially, while the narrow diamond shape of the die cut maximizes the insulative value of the pad, via internal air motion resistance. We use a variety of shell fabrics to hold it all together. Chosen for its exceptional weight savings, durability and redeuced planetary impact, we use Recycled PET DRS on all self-inflating Peak-Oyl series pads. Going for a little more substance? We thought so. So, on select pads we add a low slip, Soft-Top and Sticky-S that helps keep your bag in place. On the bottoms of our lightweight inflatables, we use tent-floor tough, 70D nylon. Because the fabric won’t do its job without the appropriate airtight coating, we coat all of our fabrics ourselves, to ensure the maximum in bonding and long term performance, with minimum weight add on.

Our valves are hard anodized aluminum, (Nylon on Traditionals) in a solid urethane foundation, for the utmost in ease of use and reliability. We pay attention to the details so you won’t have too. Enjoy, and rest easy.

Depending on your trip and the type of environmental conditions you expect to encounter, the role your sleeping pad plays can

either be a benefit or a huge detriment. Essentially your Pacific Outdoor Equipment pad serves a very simple purpose: it keeps you

warm and comfortable so you wake well rested and ready for another day of adventures. At the end of a hard day it’s there for you to sit

on, lay on, and eventually sleep on. The key to making sure you get the right pad for the right conditions comes down to analyzing the

type of trip you’re taking. If you were considering hiking the West Coast Trail, for instance, you could rely on a lightweight 1-inch thick

mattress because you would be beach camping the whole trip. At the same time if you were considering a trip up Mt Rainier, you might

want to consider a 1.5-nch thick or even 2-inch thick mattress for snowy base camp. The role of your pad is simple; pad selection can

be too. By choosing a pad suited to your trip you can extend your comfort and fun.

The Peak Oyl Series is the pinnacle of all sleeping pads. That’s a pretty

big claim, but not a hard one to back up. The Peak Oyl-Lite is the lightest full

length, 1 inch thick, fully bonded sleeping mat in the market, as well as the most

environmentally sensitive self inflator made.

Beyond the in field performance of the Peak Oyl pads, we have also focused on

the environmental impact of the mats as well. We have moved to a recycled PET

shell on the entire series. This keeps plastic bottles out of the landfill, reduces the

petroleum input, and gives us all something to think about. What about the Oyl?

The Oyl is where we took a huge leap and updated the compound that makes

up the foam – the new foam is a blend of 40% Palm Oyl based PU, and has the

same superlative performance as you’ve come to expect. The palm is not a food

replacement crop, nor GMO, but it is not without its issues, which we are actively

working to resolve. Even with its issues, it is a step in the right direction, because it

helps to bring about a market transformation – weaning us off the petroleum that is

so prevalent in all the products we use today. This brings us two more small steps

moving us closer to big change.

So, how did we do it? We started by taking a few steps away from the design

table, and looked at sleeping pads from a distilled perspective. Without doing

this we would have fallen into the trap of insignificant incremental improvements.

Incremental changes would have compromised performance significantly, while

only shaving a microscopic amount of weight. Instead, we have deconstructed the

entire concept of a backpacking sleeping pad, pulled all the pieces apart and rebuilt

pads in this new qualified form. Jumping out of our roles as product designers and

into USER, we asked the question, “What do I want a sleeping pad to do for ME?”

This led us directly to combining our two most successful sleeping pad designs, and

establishing the breaking Peak-Oyl. The end results are the lightest, most compact,

most comfortable, best insulating sleeping pads; without compromise. This is just

what you expect from Pacific Outdoor Equipment.

High performance with some added value, with Palm Oyl foam and recycled PET fabric, the Peak Oyl series continues our design revolution/evolution and further utilizes environmentally sensitive materials that help to foster emerging markets and technologies.

Peak Oyl LiteEven with an incredible combination of features like a fully die cut foam body, insulated, bermed side rails, grip trail and lightweight aluminum valve the Peak Oyl-Lite continues to maintain its lightweight benchmark. The low bulk, streamlined mummy shape further reduces weight and overall pack volume and an included stuff sack and repair kit help protect and maintain the pad in transit and in use.

Zonal, cylindrical die cutting in the hips provide increased hip support for women’s body geometries and a drilled foot area adds more insulation while stil l reducing weight. Bermed side rails and a mummy shape further reduce pack volume and weight for a lightweight package to carry between camps.

Paring closed and open cell foams the Hyper Series remain on the cutting edge of functional design. Using EVA as a base layer allows us to achieve high insulation value at a lower overall weight and the open cell foam insert adds an additional level of comfort and warmth. By melding the two you get the best of both materials for far less weight and bulk than a traditional layered system of open cell pad on top and a closed cell pad slid in on the bottom.

Thicker EVA, a thicker open cell insert, and a layer of Aerogel in the torso and foot combine to make the Hyper High Mtn our lightest, most insulative pad.

sleep:

Sleeping outside? How you dress for sleep can make a difference between a great night’s sleep and tossing and turning without a wink. Make use of the items that you have brought on your trip.

Always put on dry clothes before climbing into your bag. Damp clothes chill you quickly and cause your bag to loose loft.

When planning what to wear to sleep think about your extremities where there is a high rate of heat exchange and loss. Put a hat on, dry socks gloves, etc. Never leave home without a HAT! Women tend to lose more heat than men through their extremities; so, be diligent and pack that light pair of gloves year round.

On the whole, wicking long underwear keeps you feeling dry and helps efficiently dissipate moisture. But if you want to pack in the super warm bag and crash in your B suit, it is a great idea to have a hat in a handy location; just in case.

As the Über pads push the limits of weight and efficiency to

the margins, we continue to tweak and modify pads looking for

optimum specialized performance. We will have new versions

of our Über pads coming throughout the season, so be sure to

wedgecutfoam:

Inside our Cruiser and Traditional mats is an innovative wedge cut foam that puts support and warmth were you want and need it. What this gives you is a pad that sleeps thicker than it weighs. Combine this with our strategic lightening methods and you get the most comfortable pad possible in its weight category.

Luxury doesn’t have to come at the expense of increased weight or bulk and the Cruiser series proves this. Wedge cut along their lengths from 1.5 to 0.75 inches in the lites and 2.0 to 1.0 inches in the mtns the Cruisers pile more foam comfort in the torso and the velvety, 75D air textured polyester fabric tops and 75D poly bottoms afford superior comfort and durability. These features along with zonal drilling, die cutting and a modified mummy cut create compact comfortable pads fit for any 3 or 4 season adventures you might dream up.

Solid value, superior performance and year round durability – the Traditionals give you all that at a great price. Drilled manifolds at the head enhance inflation and deflationand our wedge shaped foam tapers the thickness from 2.0 to 1.0 inches in the regulars and a massive 3.0 inches to 1.0 inch in the Wide size. By loading the support where it’s needed you get increased comfort and a better nights sleep.

3 season 4 season 3 season 4 season

Our kids products are all about what more you can do with them in your life rather than what you can’t. We build our pads and chairs to be compact for Mom and Dad, who get to haul them, but also comfortable and fun for the little folks who get to use them.

Pacific Outdoor’s Patent Pending Hot! Technology is the first sleep enhancing active heat, self-inflating sleeping pad. As a critical component in all sleep systems, sleeping pads place much needed insulation under the sleeper. Now your pad doesn’t just lie there, it actively participates in helping you stay asleep.

Your first questions are probably “What?” and “How?” Well, here at Pacific Outdoor Equipment, we set out to make a pad that actively responds to the sleeping environment and to help your body overcome the biological response triggers that wake you. Part of what we realized was that keeping you asleep was ambitious enough and we didn’t need to be overzealous and keep you at a balmy 100 deg F all night. So we set off to work smarter, not harder and created an active heat system to give your body the help that it needs to stay sleeping comfortably as long as possible.

Now how we did it. We buried in the foam two thin film heating elements under your torso and another under your feet, which are key zones of sensitivity. We then added a thermostat inside the sealed chamber of the fully bonded mat to make sure we were adding energy to your sleep system when you needed it and didn’t cook you when you were already warmed up. And if that’s not enough, we added a cycle timer so that when the heat is running we don’t spike the heat only to let you get cold real fast when the thermostat kicks off. These two controls give the heating cycles a very gentle and subtle effect.

Summing it all up; you simply sleep more comfortably. Enjoy the rest.

good repair:

When you look at our gear, you’ll see an amazing amount of technology. Starting with

the in-house fabric coating to the clean and precise welding that holds the gear together,

you know it’s bomber. But what if you get caught in that one in a million Maytag, or grind up

against a Saguaro? How are you going to get your gear to work when you need it too? Repair

is straight forward. Using a repair adhesive like we include, or McNett’s Seam Grip, and the

included repair material (or a little piece of tape), you’ll be back in business in a jiffy.

What kind of company puts an essay about equipment repair in the middle of their catalog? Aren’t we supposed to be selling the illusion of indestructible gear? Absolutely. But that isn’t reality. All circumstances can’t be taken into consideration. Everyone is not so gentle with their gear. And of course, there is that guy Murphy.

Anything that can go wrong will go wrong. -Murphy’s Law

We build our gear with longevity in mind, so that the energy and raw materials that consumed in its manufacturer stay in the

field longer. We also make our gear so that it is easy to repair. This is very important, in that it keeps it out of the landfill and

in your pack, so that you can have more fun and build more memories.

Your gear will come up against Murphy’s law at some point during its life.

What should you do if your gear is damaged after an encounter?

Asses the damage done. Can the product be repaired and still retain its functionality?

If the integrity of the piece of equipment can be repaired and saved, then you should by all means repair the gear.

The majority of technical fabrics used in outdoor products are often times very energy intensive and have a negative effect

on the environment, that is why the longer a product can remain in use and out of the landfill the better. Start thinking in

terms of maximizing the days the gear will be used, relative to the embodied energy contained in the item.

Repairing: It’s Just Plain Smarter. • Saves money, compared to buying a new product

• Less energy intensive than new manufacturing

• Reduces the impact on your environment, by cutting carbon emissions and requiring fewer raw materials

• Product remains out of the landfill, and in use!

If the damage done is beyond repair,

• Look to recycle as much of the product as possible.

• When purchasing a new product, look at the products environmental impact.

- Does the product have excess packaging?

- How environmentally friendly is the material?

- Is the product designed to enhance longevity and use?

Welded, coated fabrics provide the foundation for our highly refined group of paddling and commuting products. Materials are connected using not just one type of welding, like most factories, but three: Thermal, Radio Frequency or RF, and HF which is a combination of both Thermal and RF. We control the process from start to finish, ensuring quality and by matching the best welding method to the best materials and design we provide optimum performance as well as the best fit and finish. There are no more intricately designed, highly functional, weatherproof bags out there. So, set your sights, plan your trip and pack your Pacific Outdoor Equipment.

Different materials and designs require different methods for assembly. You’d be amazed to see the machinery and the hand-craftsmanship involved in making just one of our products.

To bond some materials we use the tried-and-true method of radio frequency welding. The materials are die cut and placed in dies on the welding machine. Charge is supplied and within a matter of seconds, the materials are fused in an inseparable watertight bond.

Three-dimensional shapes and our special urethane coated materials are made for each other. Take a look at the compound curves found on the back panel of our portage packs. In this process, the bag is drawn to a mold and then heat and pressure are applied. The urethane that has been pressed into the fabric is transformed into a molten material and just as steel would bond on a molecular level to form a weld, so does our composite fabric.

Inflatable Paddle FloatCritical gear for sea kayak self rescue our inflatable paddle float is compact for easy stowage. The main chamber is filled through a one way valve to prevent accidental filling in case you get dunked while inflating and with a closed cell foam stiffener at the top, the float always maintains positive buoyancy. Reflective on the edge for added visibility, reinforced mesh to hold your paddle secure and a safety whistle built in to the tension strap rounds out the features.

Sea BagsOur bow and stern sized Sea bags fill the farthest crevices of your boat for dry gear storage while maintaining critical flotation should you roll. To do both jobs we’ve introduced an internal divider so that the air only portion stays separate from the storage side. This is ideal for inflating to fit, and helps optimize the bag’s seal for any extended dunking. A pair of smalls plug into the back end of most playboats, should you be a touring rodeoer.

When it comes to water repellency in the case of drybags it’s important to think of their waterproof abilities in differing levels of defense. Generally spray is no problem. A short dunk is also not much of an issue as long as it is brief and surrounding water pressure isn’t allowed to exert a force greater than that of the rolled down fold or zipper. At the extreme, having a bag circulating in a hole on the river and continually being pulled to the bottom, could cause some minor seepage. In anticipation of this possibility, important items could be rolled into a semi-transparent bag and then further rolled into a lighter-weight fabric dry bag to ensure a second layer of defense.

Another way to look at these levels of defense is to think of your bag in the same terms as a bulletproof vest. Up to a certain caliber, the vest will protect you. Pellet guns aren’t really a threat at all, whereas a .44 cal could pose a possible problem and a cannon will most certainly exert enough pressure to ruin your day.

This is an extreme but relative example in terms that illustrate the force water pressure can exert and at what level your dry bag will be able to repel it. Plan and pack for the worst drenching you could expect.

one less car series


Not everyone enjoys playing chicken. For the rest of us, visibility is a very good thing when you ride your bike, walk, or do anything where it’s you versus a car or truck. You can guess who will win.

As bag makers, we have always provided you the one up by adding some form of reflective on the backside of your bag. Large strategic placements of reflective have been highly successful as added safety. Now we’ve added another 270 degrees of visibility with the addition of our new reflective buckle. As prismatic reflectors, these buckles ride at your left and right hip and on your sternum to provide a bright return of light to oncoming traffic. Just one more part of your safety net.

why you’ve never seen a ninja riding a bike:

Eco CommuteOur quest to reduce our overall impact

inspired our design direction for the Eco-

Global Commute bags. We built this

special edition grouping of our favorite

Global Commute styles using renewable

carbonized bamboo fabric, recycled PET

webbings and wicking meshes, up-cycled

buckles and sustainable kapok padding

in the backpanel. You know the big little

details; e.g. the buckles, while still using

nylon, they utilize 40% reclaimed material

and this helps us stay away from food crop

replacing GMO corn based materials. We

also offset the energy used in production

and shipping to your local retailer by

purchasing Green Tags (RECs) in the

equivalent amount, effectively giving the

collection a Carbon Neutral footprint.

With limited Special Edition availability,

check with your favorite retailer or

drop us a line and we’ll help you track

one down.

Expedition DuffelWelding a zipper at the mouth created a new firewall for the TSA agents to break through when searching this bag and provides the extra bit of security needed when traveling the world. New daisy chain webbing eases the chore of strapping to a Yak and a handy purge valve eases compression. Both the large and x-large include built in backpack straps in case a Yak isn’t available for trekking across the concourse.

Duffel LinerBe sure to double bag it for extra protection. If you’re looking to protect your gear, or to improve the life of your duffel, throw a Duffel Liner into the mix. Closed cell foam pads this liner and keeps the wide mouth of the bag open while packing but doesn’t inhibit the roll when your duffel is ready to travel.

Ballard

Great all-around waterproof hipsacs with roll top closures and removable hipbelts. An additional external water resistant storage compartment with a zippered outer pocket gives you a place to store your keys or other items. Water-resistant side pockets along the dry mesh belt add further capacity for GU or energy bars.

Ballard is a Seattle neighborhood full of fun people that like to get out. A little rain doesn’t seem to stop them and our Ballard hipsack is the perfect companion for foul weather conditions. Welded seams and coated zippers create a fully functional, water resistant hipsac. A compression system helps prevent bounce and a breathable belt with wing pockets will keep you from sweating more than you have to.

Sleeping is serious business. Especially considering it’s a necessary part of the process to getting to those special places we like to go. The same way you consider how other gear works together to get you through the day, you should do the same for sleeping. Start either at the top or the bottom, and think system.

sleepsystems

The notion that Nature can teach us about sustainable design

is the foundation for the biomimicry movement. By following

a predetermined set of principles and guidelines scientists

and designers can study, and hopefully emulate scientifically,

designs and processes already occurring in the natural world.

Fortunately for us, the Biomimicry Institute is a local non-profit

and has its headquarters here in Bozeman, Montana.

We felt it was only natural to team up with this group on

a design project.

A collective group including Pacific Outdoor Equipment, The

Biomimicry Institute, Georgia Tech, University of Montana,

Ontario College of Arts & Design, and the University of Calgary

set out on a product design challenge. Holding weekly web

meetings, the group studied the application of the principals of

living design applied to the design of outdoor gear.

Emulating Mother Nature can be tough – from materials to

shapes – she’s had a head start on getting her designs right.

However, we were fortunate to have over 20 bright engineers,

scientists, and designers who were eager to throw it all in and

go for broke.

One thing’s for certain: biomimicry is the future of engineering

and product design. Building a product with cradle to cradle

principles is what Mother Nature does and what we should

be doing too.

A big thank you to the schools mentioned above for their

tireless efforts and participation. Stay tuned to our website

for updates on the project.

Log on to www.pacoutdoor.com and go to our Biomimicry

section to check out some of the cool limited edition gear that that

has emerged from this program, and some insightful articles and

links to the Biomimicry process. More information on the Biomimicry

Institute can be found at www.biomimicryinstitute.org.

Have you ever taken the time to really study a bird’s nest? How about a leaf?

Everyday things we usually take for granted actually have brilliant design principles executed in their construction and all are built to coexist perfectly with their surrounding environments.Add in millions of years of feedback loops and you have the makings of a pretty good field test team.

Shelter TarpsLightweight 40D PU coated fabric keeps you dry in the most torrential downpour and welded, strategically placed, tie-outs provide superior non-wicking points to warp your tarp into just about any kind of shelter you can come up with. Grommet reinforcements are also welded and sewn seams are taped to provide even load distribution when staked out. Conjoin one of the three S-Tarps with a G-Tarp ground cover, AO sleeping pad(s) and you’re own sleeping bag(s) to create a lightweight sleep system for up to 4 people. Capable of handling just about anything Mother Nature can muster each tarp packs into its own convenient attached stuff sack for storage.

improvise.

Tarps are a bit like jazz musicians; they’re all about improvisation. Start by assessing the local scene. Seek out potential overhead assistants: Large trees with overhanging branches (make sure there are no widow-makers hanging around), or a pair of trees between which you can set up a slack line to pop up the middle of the shelter without poles. Tie a hitch around a trekking pole or stick with your guy-corde and pop up or stabilize a corner. Use another trekking pole to create the entrance. It’s all about using what Nature presents you. Anything from a lean-to to a pyramid can be created with a good POE tarp.

Ground TarpsThree sizes provide superior protection from the ground and fit the needs of 1 to 4 sleepers. Grommets in the reinforced corners and sides of the larger sizes help keep this tarp in place when you sleep or provide added wetness protection when strung up. With sewn, taped seams and tough waterproof PU coated 70D nylon, use a G-Tarp ground cover and an S-Tarp shelter to compliment your lightweight sleep system. Each tarp packs into a convenient attached stuff sack.

the systemAt the top. Pick a shelter. Something that will keep you out of the elements: wind, sun, and rain. Pick one that you can set up quickly and that has a balance between weight, durability, and protection. Then you need an insulator to keep you warm. One on top and the other beneath. Insulation is key for both. Protect the bottom side from objective hazards. Put down a ground tarp. A little cold? Beef things up by slipping on a hat first and then add a layer. Put on some clothes or slip in a liner. Think of sleeping as a system.

BaseA compact and comfortable chair is hard to come by. Our Base Chair is both. We’ve enhanced the comfort by making the foam run the full length of the chair with no central seam. The durability’s also been beefed up by putting the support stays towards the outside edge underneath you. This feature allows the 2-inch web covering to take the beating, not the fabric.

Paddling down our local river - the Yellowstone - is a wondrous journey. Wondrous and long. Long enough that your backside might find itself either sleeping or complaining. Mount a canoe seat to your thwart seat and you’re on your way. Fold the seat flat and sit on the double cushion while you’re making some time on the flat water. Getting turbid? Slide off the front to your knees for some better stability and rest your tush on the padded seat edge. Mix it up and you’ll definitely have a happy tail at the end of the day. Paddle and enjoy…

good gear

= less waste

Making good gear that lasts does more than just assure you that your equipment will perform for you when you want or need it the most. It also reduces our personal foot print

and makes us a less conspicuous consumer. Every item that we use in our daily and/or recreational lives has an embodied

energy. This is the energy required to create that item and get it to the point of first use. Durable good gear makes this

embodied energy investment go longer. So when you study products that are “environmentally sensitive” remember to look

at its durability — which isn’t purely a function of the raw materials that go into it, rather it is also a function of how the item

is put together. With this in mind, we over build, for longevity, to help keep our gear in the outdoors, out of the landfills, and

our energy and resource use to a minimum. It’s all about being a better big-blue citizen.

Blue is the new green and the old green. As we all strive to return our planet to a stable healthy state, it is helpful when enthusiastic good environmental

stewards help us to refocus on what really matters, while we all get distracted by the buzz of daily life. Because

of the seriousness of our planetary situation that we have all embraced, Green has become the rally call of the

eco marketer in the US, and unfortunately has started to become a part of the background noise as we try to

distinguish what is meaningful and what is not. If you have been abroad, you would know that for years there

has been a similar environmental movement growing in other countries. Their goals however are more likely the

result of practical needs and less altruistic or marketing driven. These groups rally around the color Blue — blue

sky to breath and blue water to drink and grow with. It makes sense — we think that blue really does wrap it up

and refreshes our focus on what really matters for today, and the future. Please join us in going Blue.
