Description

The Pogies

These are a DCF version of the rain pogies. To match the lighter weight material, they are designed to be more minimalistic. For example, instead of the one-handed cinch to adjust the wrist opening, this version takes a more "set it and forget it" approach.

The size of the wrist opening is adjusted using a simple cord lock and shock cord cinch.  While the stock sil version also uses a cord lock and shock cord, to achieve the one-handed operation, a heavier cord lock is needed which requires a much heaftier 1/8" shock cord. Compare that to the 1/16" shock cord used on the DCF version.

While the simplicity is nice, the DCF version is more challenging to put on since the opening is pre-cinched, and it's a bigger pain to adjust it.  The narrower shock cord is nice because it's less likely to reduce circulation if you happen to overtighten it.

Ordering

I will have a small initial quantity available to US customers for testing. Initial testers will be selected from the applicant pool. The pogies will be sold for a reduced cost of $15.00 plus shipping, and the $15.00 will be refunded after you successfully complete two rounds of feedback.

Feedback

I'm primarily looking to hear what the user experience is like. Are they too much of a pain? Solve all your problems? Do they shrink too much over time?
