Sitka downgrades

[Sled]

Anyone else notice that Sitka "upgrades" a product quietly without noting the changes on their website descriptions? People receive the product and those that had the previous version are pissed that the new one doesn't perform or meet the expectation. It's kind of like the family sized chip bag that both shrank in size and internal volume but stayed the same price. Well, at least until they had us fooled and then shot the price up too.

I noticed walking through scheels there were a ton of new sitka items ive never seen before. Didnt know if they replaced what im used to or not but they all felt lightweight to me.

Sitka has gone from the leader in clothing to a brand that feels more akin to Temu.

I've bever seen Sitka, or other similar company, quietly do anything.. it's usually all over the Instagram, on Facebook ads, YouTube and discussed on podcasts.

Is there something specific you're talking about?
