Why outdoor industy is infested with polyurethane gear when its a known fact that hydrolysis will break it down sooner or later? Seems like "THEY" dont even want to make long lasting gear so you need to buy more shit sooner. They just keep getting away with it even when there are better materials like silicone and rubber.
Rain jackets delaminating, boot soles crumbling into little pieces, tent fabric turning into gooey mess, backpack interior flacking off. Sounds familiar?
The biggest losers of this scam are the weekend warriors and other people that dont use their gear that often. Buy once cry once right? Wrong. Your expensive gear will break down even faster when you are not even using it. Try to save some money and buy used gear? Tough luck buddy all old gear are already fuck'd or near getting fuck'd.
Why nobody is talking about this shit?
