You may also want to brush up on your understanding of fabrics and manufacturing, as your far from comparing apples with apples. The First Lite pants that are linked actually have a substantial amount of New Zealand merino in them, and how you can asses the "grade & design/cut" from a few images is beyond me and quite frankly laughable.
As we all know there's a few Asian country's that have been heavily investing in manufacturing facilities for a very long time, and now the best of those factories are by a mile the most sophisticated in the world, meaning much tighter quality control etc. This is why the big 3 high end brands (Kuiu, Sitka & First Lite) use their services, and have the economy of scale to choose the best factories to work with. Same can be said for where they purchase their fabrics... One thing is for sure... None of this involves the Ukraine.

I'm not even going to start picking holes in your product. Because that would be rude, and quite simply I don't have to as it's all fairly obvious.

So politely, pull your head in!

Stood on some toes ah :-)
Well for starters I did not "slag" you product
I just said I had to "make comment" over the price for what "my eyes" saw
Yes I know all about the Merino input :-)
But again "eyes" (well those of us that have them open) mine at least do not deceive !!

I have imported Tons of clothing out of Europe back 2008 - 2013
Got to hear all the juicy stories from the Customs and Brokers about what was coming in from "that other place"

What is printed on Labels never tell the %

But again
Picture tell a 1000 words
So - I will stick with Pictures - you can go with words



I hope I might get some back up here ??
But I make no profit
If you or anyone else wants proof
I will give you my accountants contact
He thinks I am nuts
But I got started all over Greed !!
Greed from greedy NZ importers to be frank !!!!!

PS
Do not tell me to "pull my head in" especially - from a he/she who has 1 Post on here
Its the likes of you that got me doing exactly what I am doing
