Wondering the same myself. They all disappeared a couple weeks ago (few days after I found out about the FUG) Whether the two are related, who knows. I didn't want to start something, but since you asked...

3 events happened at roughly the same time:

- LaRue releases their FUG
- LaRue stops carrying Tango Down products

It seems safe to assume that these events are in some way related.

In the past, we've been burnt-to-sh*t in this industry, but we learned, and now we invite ...
