They came at mewith an idea.

Even the manliest of men have to dry off once they are done rolling around in the mud. Just try and bushcraft yourself a towel without getting a rash. You cannot.

Upstate makes high end linens and bedding for the outdoorsman's indoor dwelling quarters.

They came at me with a product. I came at them with packaging.
