It may be tremendous, but that doesn't mean it isn't rebranded. I'm sure there are several smaller manufacturers who would be willing to let people re-brand their gear, in order to expand their market.

Those air force-style helmets that came out a few years ago, with the LED lights on the back? They were rebranded Vemars.

How many employees does he have? Gear of that quality would take more than just a 1- or 5-man shop to design, test, manufacture, and sell.

You talk with such conviction, I almost want to believe you.

Some of the best suit manufacturers I can think of are all small operations.

Ask racers about Syed, Barnacle Bill, Crush, Bates, Pilot, hell, even Vanson was a small shop once upon a time.
