Not initially, but with everything we're doing I'm all ears on what people want and I'm listening!

Now’s our chance people! I for one would want / buy if there was a non hooded available.

Will there be a non hooded option for the octane jacket??? @Brad@Argali

I'm missing something.. whats the octane jacket?

I'm missing something.. whats the octane jacket?

Brad can probably give a lot more info but from what I read it's an active insulation, mid+(heavy-mid?) layer that's cut to fit over their grid fleece

If you're signed up for our email list for the Clothing Project I have a more detailed explanation, but here is part of what I shared on that email about our Octane Jacket we are working on. More to come on this one soon.



Octane Jacket Overview
The Octane is an active insulation jacket designed to be warm but also move moisture quickly and efficiently. Think of the kind of jacket you can wear on cool mornings as an outerlayer, and in colder weather hunts you can wear to hike up a mountain. It is designed to layer over our Guide Air Fleece and function as an outer layer or an insulating layer.

Like all of our products, it is built with premium materials and insulation to have a very high warmth to weight ratio, move with you, and be quiet. Importantly, this jacket’s face fabric has a matte finish, so it won’t produce any sheen.

The first thing you notice about the Octane is that there are two different color blocks on this jacket. That’s because we are using a different fabric in areas that need more ventilation; in particular where you pack sits and under your arms.

Happy to answer as much as I can about the jacket now, but we will be releasing more on this in the coming months as a part of "phase 2" of our clothing line.

I thought I was signed up for the email list but must not have been. I am now..

Active insulation like a Primaloft Evolve? Or more of an "enclosed" insulation like the SG cirque or Kuiu Kenai?

 

[Brad@Argali]

It’s a breathable fabric for to help allow better breathability where you pack sits and under your arms.

We have another jacket with enclosed insulation, but the Octane has an exposed active insulation. Most soon on the fabric details I promise!

Quick update on clothing availability for any of you that have been waiting or wanting to buy the Vesper, Torex or Guide Air Fleece. The products will all finally be for sale on our website this Thursday, April 9th at 9 a.m. MST. Its been a long time coming so I appreciate everyone's patience.

And for all of you that placed a pre-order, I can't thank you enough. We randomly placed some gifts in pre-order packages, and I'm hoping that some of you on this thread were a part of those gifts because there were some good ones!

hope i am a lucky one! says my pants should be here on the 9th!

 

[JakeShmevans]

I’ll have to look today! Pretty stoked to get my hands on the package.

No gifts. But pre-order received. Quality is noticeable off the jump. Side vents are perfect length in IMO. I ordered one of each item and I’m pleased and excited to test run them all. Vespers the most.

@Brad@Argali You weren’t kidding about making these quiet. They feel very high quality. Seams and sewing shows high QC also. Fit in the seat/thigh is on the slimmer side, especially on the Vesper. Inseams are noticeably longer than other pants in my typical size. I’ve got lifter thighs, but I’m not huge. Guys with really big thighs might struggle. I’m very curious to see how the DWR and durability is, considering how quiet these are. Typically it’s a direct tradeoff IME.
