I think it's time for Klass Designs to become a viable producer of lightweight Bpacking goods. And that goes for anyone else that can pull it off with a needed product. I have other ideas that could be marketed and some are variations I learned about on this site. The irony is that I've been PMed and called brilliant for something that someone else came up with. I did fess up though and didn't take credit for it. But the idea, even though not my own could still be marketed.
Actually, i have been toying with the idea. I even went so far as to contact some different manufacturing companies overseas to see what kind of price points i could sell the gear at. I have designed my own backpacks, quilts, and even tents (Tarptent Sub-Lite ring a bell?), and would love to do it just to sell some gear that I would actually buy myself, not to make a million dollars (Big Sky ring another bell?). I think we need to start a TLB co-op and design and build our own gear! We have members here that are expert lawyers, design, manufacturing and retail specialists, as well as sales reps. What are we all waiting for?
