Hi Guys,
I was wondering if any one had any knowledge about what it takes to design outdoor clothing. is it as simple as saying, "I want my goretex jacket to look like this" and sending it off to a factory to be made with taped seams and waterproof zippers? Seems like there are so many different fabrics and technology that goes into producing these clothes, is there a fashion school for it? or rather a field of study within a fashion school?
I live in boulder and see all this outdoor clothing and was just wondering how does one go about doing it?
read an article on white mountaineering and that designer learned from working at CDG i think, but any info would be cool.
