__________
My take: Kraig drew a blurry line in the sand saying they would be delivering spidersilk to a strategic market partner in 3Q/4Q 2019. Polartec and Kraig drew a blurry line together when they jointly announced they would bring first spidersilk products to market. But now Spiber has drawn a clear line in the sand saying that on December 12, 2019 they and North Face will bring the Moon Parka to market albeit in limited quantity. What % is the Moon Parka is actually made of spidersilk? I don’t know. I just know that the window to be first had grown smaller. Polartec, Kim, Jon, ARE YOU LISTENING? Let’s go!!!!!!!!!! IMHO
”That’s what Spiber, a Japanese biomaterials company, just announced at a press conference in Tokyo with apparel company The North Face. The high-performance ski jacket, called Moon Parka, will hit shelves for a limited release on December 12, 2019.”
