Let's say a "major sports apparel company" makes a prototype with KBLB's fibers....

Outstanding, for proof of concept purposes....

I agree. But now for arguments sake, lets ask why our silk wouldn't be able to work in apparel. My answer would be along the lines of es1's thinking...I believe. There is no good reason that anyone could proffer, that could possibly be accurate. It is silk. So what if the high end uses require tighter quality limits. The range for our fibers is such that the lowest end is extremely higher than any silk on the planet. Put me down for wanting to see proof, but the chance for failure is zero. No one wants to commit, but I am just not built that way. We are good until someone can give a powerful rationale for the opposite. If they could, they would have by now. Why has no one given a good argument....or an argument at all, against our fibers being capable of being in mundane textiles?

Just because I haven't seen it in a textile, is not a reason to argue it won't be able to. It is an extremely strong and elastic fiber. It is a great building block for textiles.....unless you can intelligently tell me why it isn't. If you can't then I can reject the idea that I need to see it in a product.

The argument that can be made is...is it consistent enough to be trusted for ballistics shootpacks?

So I have no reason thus far to assume the big 3 questions(commercial quantity, quality-consistent,economically feasible pricing) aren't highly probable.

I have said Vietnam/production solves everything. A shootpack proves high AND low end uses to the market. How will it rank in fashion? As far as softness, I wouldn't know how any silk could possibly be better.....if finus modulus(FM) translates into softer fabric...........

Someone would of had to of made a product by now, and it is simply someones company secret.
