Price
This product saved us over $600 in new jackets.
If i only wanted to do one piece of clothing, this would be an expensive product.
The only downside is the items are expensive and require the use of most of the container for even one garment.
Competitiveness
I got better results with the spray on products, which the patagonia website indicated were comparable.
