August Call for Owner Reviews

 

In celebration of summer's inevitable and hopefully expedient departure I thought we'd do something a bit different for the monthly "Call for Owner Reviews".

This time instead of me choosing the categories, you get to choose. You can write about anything you want with one hitch, the item must be manufactured by a company NOT already represented or with very low representation on BGT.

The OR Edit team is standing by to receive your reviews. Remember Brownie points are awarded for those who participate.

Here is a list of companies already well represented and therefore NOT eligible for use:

AntiGravity Gear, Asolo, Arc Teryx, Ahnu
Big Agnes, Bushnell, Black Diamond, Benchmade, Brunton, Badger, Big Sky, Bridgedale
Coleman, Cloudveil, Clif, Columbia, Cabela's, Camelbak
Duofold, Darn Tough Vermont, DeFeet
Exped, Eureka, ExOfficio
Fox River Mills
Garmin, Gregory, Gerber, Gordini, Granite Gear, Guyot Designs, GSI Outdoors, GoLite
Hennessy Hammocks, High Sierra, Highgear
IBEX, Icebreaker, Injinji, Integral Designs
Jack R Better, Jetboil, Julbo
Kayland, Keen, Kelty, Kombi
Lowe Alpine, L.L. Bean, LEKI, Light My Fire, Lorpen, Luna Sports
Marmot, Mountainsmith, Mountain Hardwear, Merrell, Montrail, MontBell, MEC, MSR
Nunatak, Nalgene
Osprey, Oboz, Optimus, Outdoor Research
Primus, Platypus, Princeton Tec, Petzl, Patagonia, Premier Pet Products

Re: August Call for Owner Reviews

 

I can't get to the guidelines on the website so I'm just going to ask...
What about a manufacturer that doesn't seem to have a website? (North 49)

Re: August Call for Owner Reviews

 

As far as I know not having a website is not a problem and since we don't have anything from North 49, that would be a good choice.
