What We Need From You
3 months of active field testing (October-December 2026)
Wear the base layer during your regular outdoor activities. We need real-world usage data, not lab testing.
Weekly feedback sessions (30 min video calls or written reports)
Tell us what works, what doesn't, what frustrates you, what delights you. Honest feedback is more valuable than praise.
Active outdoor lifestyle
Climbing, skiing, trail running, backpacking, expeditions. We need testers who push gear to its limits.
Willingness to share experience publicly (optional but appreciated)
Instagram, YouTube, blog posts. Not required, but if you're comfortable sharing your testing journey, it helps us build community.
Commitment to honest feedback
We want to know what breaks or frustrates you. Sugar-coating helps no one. Tell us the truth.
