Any sweaters like this with a lower price? Looking for something all-purpose for hiking in ~40 degree weather and wearing around town, not too heavy

Saw this kickstarter the other day, wondering the same thing. Seems pretty cool but might just be marketing hype bullshit. I would like to be able to say I have a sweater made of llama wool though...
>>893433
huh, what? Just googled, why is an established business like cotopaxi doing on a kickstarter? Are they seriously unable to raise enough capital themselves? ...or attract real investors?
Anyway, it looks identical to the wool sweaters my mother wears, her being a natural born peruvian and having a predilection for such things.

I have two sweaters in my truck, along with a few boxes of old jeans, that are going to goodwill/arc/savers the next time I drive by one.

are they llama wool? cause the cotopaxis look comfy af
>>893460
but actually why? I hadn't considered that. Sounds suspect.
I went to Chile and Peru a few years ago and picked up Llama and alpaca wool hoodies for myself and the wife, a llama wool shawl/poncho for my mom and like a parka liner for My dad who works outdoors. Llama/Alpaca wool is basically like a supernatural fiber lightweight and warm as fuck, I drag my hoodie along on field ops in my sleeping system and sleep in it fucking comfy/10

Not that uncommon for smaller companies to use kick starter these days when they need to drum up some expansion capital. Less risk than jumping into bed with a venture capitalist who's going to want to have a say in everything.
Boreas packs did the same thing for their bootlegger pack system. These aren't fortune 500 outfits, they're basically one or two notches above start-up.

this. they've raised $350k in a month, and don't have to deal with anyone meddling

No need for this dumb shit

holy shit everything about that is pretentious as fuck. it's really quite amazing. what's even more amazing is how many people donated for something as pretentious as a meme hipster $100 sweater.

Marketing, kickstarter is great for hyping up a product, even if you already have the funds.
>>893583
I don't think think you know what that word means
>>893559
A normal, wool jumper got $350,000 pledged on kickstarter? I don't understand. This product already exists...?
>>893919
No, it's a line that they want to make and are basically pre-selling through kick starter to have the hard capital to get production started.
For a small company like Cotopaxi, it's less risky than selling part of the company to an investor or taking out a loan.
