Rayo...it just goes to show how much more expensive these other company products are, and I believe the quantities produced will be very small, just enough to make several coats. Any silk from these companies will be created in a way which is much more expensive and pollutive than KBLB. Again, this shows why KBLB is the leader and is a stand alone winner. JMHO
The only people I know paying anywhere near that are scientists in Antarctica.
I live in the one of the coldest areas the Midwest. You can get an entire snowmobile suit for less then that. And that’s plenty warm.
Also it’s hardly mass production. There’s probably less then 20lbs of silk in all 50 coats combined. And I’m being generous.
As far as I’m concerned until they say there silk has the strength of spider silk or something approaching it. This is just a novelty. Put the words spider silk together and people will buy it. For a while. Until they realize they could get the same quality coat for a 3rd of the price.
I was looking at some of the North Face jackets and some are 100% polyester. Some have GORE-TEX. Found another that was made from 85% recycled polyester and 15% nylon which was pretty expensive compared to the 100% polyester jackets. Based on Spiber’s 80% cotton tee, my guess is that this $1,400+ Moon Parka will be made with a large % of recycled polyester and a smaller percentage of goo.
I just wish Kraig and Polartec or Kraig and M would release a prototype of something. That might attract some interest.
