"I love late winter days where the air is warm but the ice is still safe to fish on. Like most Canadians who deal with a harsh winter, you bet the second I can ditch my coat I will! "

"The leggings are great for foraging because of all the pockets, there’s a perfect spot for my opinel mushroom knife, some mesh bags as well as one of my smaller mushroom field guides for when I’m foraging outside of cell range."

 

In the winter, foraging is mostly limited to hunting and fishing, and requires a level of survival skills that most of us in the lower 48 don't have.

The lakes become frozen, and can walked across. This opens up the enormous wilderness area to hiking, foraging, ice fishing, and even vehicles that drive across the lakes frozen surface.

 When Corrie is wearing Chickly Leggings she can go pee anywhere without exposing herself. But more importantly, she can go pee without ripping out her infusion sets. These are expensive, and wasting them ads more strain to an already expensive disease.

 "My Chickfly Merino Wool Leggings help keep me warm, plus I'm able to keep my insulin pump and phone close enough and warm enough that they still work perfectly and I can easily monitor my blood sugar and administer insulin if I need to!"

With Chickfly outdoor pants and leggings Corrie can: Thread her insulin pump through the fly and go pee without ripping it out, carry her pump equipment and phone in a pocket close to her body where it stays warm enough to function in sub zero temperatures, and carry lots of low-blood sugar snacks.

Chickfly is about providing access to everybody. This includes both access to one's own body for peeing or medical equipment, and access to the public life and the outdoors through greater function and utility.
