Looks like Gen is slowly starting to outsource manufacturing after 18 years of doing it mostly on its own to focus more on designing and less on sewing. Reminds me of how Pa'lante evolved a few years ago. Thoughts on that? I find it a bit sad when they have to do this. But on the other hand, it's hard to beat the level of sewing skills we can find in Vietnamese factories. It may also lower the price a bit, who knows.
