The number of niqab-wearing hiking enthusiasts is likely to be vanishingly small, but that shouldn’t stop them from enjoying the great outdoors, once they get permission to do so from their male guardians. The North Face brand is not really appealing to niqabis to buy outdoor clothing. This is virtue-signaling to Leftists who will buy North Face products while congratulating themselves that they’re not like those evil right-wingers who oppose mass Muslim migration into the West.

The reason this Muhammadan invasion is occurring is the Muhammadan’s have extorted and/or paid off the american government offices occupying poiti’Kal ‘Klass and their ministry of propaganda [MoP] media Henchwomen. Nothing new here… same thing the muhammadan invaders have done for the last 1,400 + years..

That’s a hideously ugly look by any aesthetic standards. Above all though, that hideous head gear is all about the oppression of women in Muslim countries. So the moronic left wing virtue signallers, who think that they are supporting a free choice by Muslim women and are fighting against nasty “islamophobia” by buying this brand of clothing are supporting the primitive and barbaric Muslim way of life which is fit only for knuckle draggers. Such left wingers are stupid beyond belief and refuse to face reality when it comes to islam.

Tim, if I hiked a lot…too height challenged these days…and saw that coming up the trail, or over a ridge, I’d be of the mind that it was someone out to do me harm.
Terrorists…blm, antifa, or mozlum…cover their faces, esp with black masks, bandannas, etc….and that is exactly the look she has. terrorist or highwayman, it would be time for self-defense measures.
these idiots are making it easier for the terrorists by shutting down the defense mechanisms which naturally occur to the human suddenly confronted with a masked face. Get accustomed to it and when the bad guy appears, no alarm bells will ring..

I agree, somehistory, that it would be very worrying to see someone looking like that coming towards you if you were out hiking. Any person would be bound to think that a person, with their face covered like that, was out to do them some harm. Of course with the Muslims, who have no self control at all, women have to be covered up or they are bound to be raped. It is totally about oppressing Muslim women.

Go woke go broke.
I’ll find another supplier for my outdoor wear…

I really love LL Bean and so far, have not seen them bowing to this nonsense.
ME Infidel says
I hate to disappoint you, somehistory, but I worked there seasonally for five years during the Christmas crunch time.
First of all, 96% of Bean’s products are made overseas in Bangladesh, Thailand, etc. The Bean labels are then sewn in. Even their iconic boots are made overseas but are stitched together in Brunswick, ME. It’s been a while, but I believe their canoes and tote bags are made in Maine.
Secondly, they bend over backwards to accommodate the mostly Somali Muslims who work there with prayer rooms, prayer times and foot baths.
L.L.Bean, like most traditional American companies, is run by very woke, tree-hugging Lefties. It’s all smoke and mirrors.
somehistory says
oh my goodness, ME. That’s some awful facts to have to digest. I always read the labels about where they are made, but I, of course, didn’t have access to the employees and their backgrounds.
thanks for the bad news.
James Lincoln says
ME Infidel,
Can you recommend an outdoor wear supplier that is not woke?
somehistory says
I bought some backpacks last year from a company in CO which makes them; can’t remember the exact name, but I put these words in a search “outdoor gear brands made in the usa” and it brought up a lot of information.
How many of these companies use mozlums to do the work, I have no idea. But there are a lot of companies which make the products here.

Not only is the niqab offensive, it also unhealthy in that it blocks out the sun rays from the woman which deprives her of vitamin D.
ME Infidel says
James Lincoln, I currently shop at a Maine owned company called Renys, but haven’t taken a deep dive into where their products are actually manufactured, yet.
However, her’s a link that may be useful:

ME Infidel,
Thanks for the shopping tip.

I don’t think these companies virtue signaling is vary smart. Consider that if the non-islamic customers stop buying their product they will be out of businesses vary quickly. I don’t buy L.L. Bean because its all made overseas, BUY AMERICAN
