I have two of their vests, both "Lightweight" models. Cool number of pockets and they don't scream "safari!"--- which was a big selling point for me--- but they both started coming apart in their second season of wear.
This little eruption isn't making me warm & fuzzy about trying a third.

I just sent them a little note letting them know I'm concerned about the statement made by their CEO.
I suggest you all do the same.

Personal opinion....Stupid product made and marketed by an even stupider man, given these comments.
I never considered buying one, and with these remarks, I'll make sure any friends and/or coworkers that might be inclined to buy one know exactly what this man thinks of them.

Not the best idea to call the people sitting next to you on the chairlift “fucking idiots”.

Situation awareness is defined as a continuous extraction of environmental information, integration of this information with previous knowledge to form a coherent mental picture in directing further perception and anticipating future events. Simply put, situational awareness mean knowing what is going on around you.

I never liked Scottevest, their products are a gimmick and their quality was pretty low. This just reinforces things.

I sent FOX and e-mail - since he just insulted their entire viewer base I suggest it would be hypocritical to carry the Ad.

Me, neither. The way it's written, "Scott eVest", made me think it had something to do with Scottrade.

I've bought a windbreaker type jacket from them but I wasn't impressed with the quality or style of it. Plus, as I've gotten fatter they apparently don't want people of my size as customers since they don't offer big enough sizes. That may just be a personal gripe though.
Doubt that numb-nuts even cares whether he insulted a rather large percentage of his potential customer base.

From the company website:
“The recent offensive and inexcusable social media post by Scott Jordan does not reflect the views of SCOTTeVEST. In 2017, Mr. Jordan stepped down from the management of SCOTTeVEST and he is not involved in our daily operations.
We are extremely sorry for his unacceptable comments. Mr. Jordan’s post was impulsive and inappropriate for too many reasons to list, and rightfully offended so many people.
We strongly disagree with the views expressed by Mr. Jordan.”

Right.
It's never a good idea to insult your customers, no matter where they get the news!
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown
