The small hex is perfect for baffles on down sweaters, sleeping bags, and backpacks while the large hex fixes bigger repairs on tents, sleeping pads, and waders. Neutral colors blend in on traditional outdoor and hunting fabrics; solid black is perfect for dark fabrics; clear works for nearly transparent repairs on any color fabric.

A strange phenomenon was first discovered at University of British Columbia ski club touring camps in the 1960’s. While students carrying bowls or more standard eating vessels received regular potions, those clever few who were using a simple 2 cup measuring cup typically received much larger portions from the servers in the communal meal line. Soon, a few daring students were experimenting with 4 cup measuring cups and found the results to be the same: larger portions. Thus, the original ‘fair share’ cup was born. Now nearly 50 years and several innovations later, GSI Outdoors has developed the FairShare Mug II, with insulating sleeve, compacting handle and a new lid that allows mugs to stack when stored, assuring that a whole new generation would receive their ‘fair share’ too.
