Cool new textile that replicates thermal and optical qualities of polar bear fur.
I didn’t post this science news in the Fly Tying sub forum for a couple of reasons. One, the textile is probably a good several years up the pipeline from your local fly shop, if at all. Two, tiers love discovering new stuff on their own, and the magazines will inevitably have their day. And, lastly, the time lag is too harsh a dangle to post in the FT forum.
Anyway, cool developments at University of Massachusetts Amherst: Link
