COLD WEATHER CLOTHING PRODUCTS

Arctic Armor Line

Our Arctic Armor line products are intended for use by the following consumer groups that are in the Company’s target market for these products: We are currently only selling these products form our existing inventory.

Website and Retailers

We sell both wholesale and retail products on our web site. Our web site, located at www.idigear.com, contains information on our products, technical information on INSULTEXInsultex insulation, e-commerce capabilities with “shopping cart”, wholesaler information and order forms, company contact information, and links to retailers that carry our products. We have obtained the services of BA Web Productions who assists us in designing and continually developing our website. Our web site features a “wholesaler only” area, allowing our wholesalers access to information, ordering, and reordering. Our products are offered and sold by retailers, distributors and through our web site in all states and Canada. Except for products sold through our web site, others who purchase our products do so at wholesale prices which they plan to sell at their retail prices or use within their industry.

Sales

We sell our products online, to distributors and through independent sales agents and agencies. Once we have made contact with a potential sales agency or solo agent, we evaluate their existing accounts, the capacity and potential for them to effectively push our products. We also look at their current product lines through the sales channel. Our primary market area is the outdoor industry which includes all activity done in cold weather. These activities include recreational such as hunting, ice fishing, snowmobiling, and industries such as oil and gas, utilities and construction. Once we agree to bring on an independent sales agent or agency, we enter into a standard agreement.

A typical sales representative agreement will have a term of one year with the right of either party to terminate upon thirty days written notice. We do not provide any free samples of our products and all sales expenses are the sole obligation of the sales agent.

Certain retailers buy directly from us. We have no verbal or written agreements with them. These retailers purchase our products strictly on a purchase order basis. During our last fiscal year, we sold our products to such retailers as Canadian Tire Corporation Limited. Some of our distributors during the last fiscal year were Pro Fishing Supplies and Fleece Corner. We distribute our products to the following:

Swimeez Products

We distribute our Swimeez products through our web site.

Hunting Apparel Line

Our hunting apparel consists of a six pocket pants, 1/2 zip pullover jacket with collar, parka jacket, fleece jacket, bib coveralls in light weight, and bib coveralls in arctic weight.

Arctic Armor Line

We distribute the Arctic Armor Line through our web site, to retailers and to distributors across the United States and Canada. These products are also marketed to utility companies, oil/gas pipeline workers, railroad workers, police and first responders, and to construction workers.

During our last fiscal year, three customers accounted for more than ten percent of our cold weather clothing products sales, Pro Fishing Supplies (30.4%)., Canadian Tire Corporation Limited (22.9%) and Fleece Corner (12.2%).

HOUSE WRAP

House Wrap

In early January 2008, we announced that we had completed our research and development effort on a new use for INSULTEXInsultex as a house wrap for the home building construction industry. This house wrap provides barrier protection plus moisture vapor transmission and the feature of approximately R-3 and R-6 value insulation. The INSULTEXInsultex House Wrap was designed to specifically add enhanced insulating characteristics. In addition, the house wrapHouse Wrap is priced competitively with existing house wraps that do not provide any insulation. The development efforts were conducted by our own personnel and an outside consultant. In December 2016, we temporarily suspended any advertising for our House Wrap product line as we are currentlywere in litigation with the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”). InThe litigation has concluded as to the first part of 2020,matters set forth in the FTC complaint and in March 2021, we resumed advertising for our House Wrap products. Please see “Legal Proceedings” appearing elsewhere in this report.

INSULTEXInsultex House Wrap

During our last fiscal year, twothe following customers each accounted for more than ten percent of our total sales of our House Wrap product, A-Team Building Supplies, LLC (19.5%(30.9%), NorthStar Systembuilt (19.1%) and Eddie’s Ace Hardware (17.7%Compound Construction (10.2%).

Competition

Many companies offer a type of house wrap, some with insulating properties. These companies have large operations and are well financed. Some of the larger companies are DuPont, Owens-Corning and Kimberly Clark. The Company expects to face intense competition with others who have much greater resources in the building construction supply industry.

Our production costs are limited to the invoices we receive for Insultex from our sub-manufacturer, PT LidyaKetut Group and Natalia, on a per production basis and for our gloves from our supplier in the U.S and for our House Wrap product from the manufacturer.

Although we are not aware of the need for any government approval of our principal products, we may be subject to such approvals in the future.

United States and foreign regulations may subject us to increased regulation costs, and possibly fines or restrictions on conducting our business. We are subject, directly or indirectly, to governmental regulations pertaining to the following government agencies:

United States Customs Service

We are required to pay a 6.5% importation duty to the United States Customs Service on all imported products. We import INSULTEXInsultex from Indonesia from the Ketut Group, in accordance with Innovative Design’sour agreement with the Ketut Group.

United States Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration

Because our sub-manufacturers manufacture our completed products, we and our sub-manufacturers will be subject to the regulations of the United States Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

We are not aware of any governmental regulations that will affect the Internet aspects of our business. However, due to increasing usage of the Internet, a number of laws and regulations may be adopted relating to the Internet covering user privacy, pricing, and characteristics and quality of products and services. Furthermore, the growth and development of Internet commerce may prompt more stringent consumer protection laws imposing additional burdens on those companiescompanies’ conducting business over the Internet. The adoption of any additional laws or regulations may decrease the growth of the Internet, which, in turn, could decrease the demand for Internet services and increase the cost of doing business on the Internet. These factors may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Moreover, the interpretation of sales tax, libel, and personal privacy laws applied to Internet commerce is uncertain and unresolved. We may be required to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in each such state or foreign country. Our failure to qualify as a foreign corporation in a jurisdiction where we are required to do so could subject us to taxes and penalties. Any such existing or new legislation or regulation, including state sales tax, or the application of laws or regulations from jurisdictions whose laws do not currently apply to our business, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We currently have no costs associated with compliance with environmental regulations. Because we do not manufacture our products, but rather they are manufactured by our sub-manufacturers, we do not anticipate any costs associated with environmental compliance. Moreover, the delivery and distribution of our products will not involve substantial discharge of environmental pollutants. However, there can be no assurance that we will not incur such costs in the future.

We estimate that all of our revenues will be from the sale of our products. We will sell our products at prices above our original cost to produce our products. Prices for some of our products will be lower than similar products of our competitors, while others will be higher. We expect our product prices to be lower than network marketing companies, but higher compared with retail establishments that directly manufacture their own products.

Products that are sold directly by our website will be priced according to our Manufacturer Suggested Retail Prices. Our wholesale clients will purchase our products at our wholesale prices. We recommend that our retailer clients sell our products at the Manufacturer Suggested Retail Prices that we provide to them which are the same prices for products on our website; however, they are not required to do so and may price our products for retail sale at their discretion. We have established M.A.P. (minimum advertised pricing) on our Arctic Armor™ suit in an attempt to allow all retailers and distributors carrying the line to obtain reasonable gross margin dollars.

We currently have a total of 3two full time employees. We hire part-time personnel as needed.

We have no collective bargaining or employment agreements.

Reports and Other Information to Shareholders

We are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, we file annual, quarterly and other reports and information with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You may read and copy these reports and other information we file at the Securities and Exchange Commission’s public reference rooms in Washington, D.C., New York, New York, and Chicago, Illinois. Our filings are also available to the public from commercial document retrieval services and the Internet worldwide website maintained by the Securities and Exchange Commission at www.sec.gov.

Lack of Sufficient Operating Funds-Going Concern

Our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020,2023, has included an explanatory paragraph in their opinion that accompanies our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020,2023, indicating that as a result of the Company having had net losses and negative cash flows and an accumulated deficit there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Because we are not able to generate sufficient funds from sales and because we are unable to access commercial sources of credit, we are consistently underfunded. As a result, our growth is very limited, and we have difficulty in sustaining our current level of operations. We are not able to initiate adequate marketing programs, hire additional staff, develop new products or have flexibility in ordering productsInsultex from our manufacturers..manufacturer. Additionally, we must replace our quality control testing equipment for our House Wrap product line which we estimate may cost $100,000. In the past, we have depended on borrowings from our CEO and other private parties, primarily stockholders in the private sale of our common stock or debt. . Should we not be able to continue to rely on these sources of funding and increase our revenue stream to at least meet our current level of operations and to purchase new testing equipment the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern will be adversely affected.

Competition

The markets served by the Company are highly competitive. Competitive pricing pressure could result in loss of customers or decreased profit margins. Competition by product type includes the following:

The markets for our products are increasingly competitive. Our competitors have substantially longer operating histories, greater brand name and company name recognition, larger customer bases and greater financial, operating, and technical resources than us. Because we are financially and operationally smaller than our competitors, we will encounter difficulties in capturing market share. Our competitors are able to conduct extensive marketing campaigns and create more attractive pricing of their target markets than we are.

Some of our biggest competitors for our House Wrap product line are;

Some of our biggest competitors in the Arctic Armor™ line are:

We compete in the following ways:

Arctic Armor Line

We emphasize the following characteristics and advantages of our Arctic Armor line products:

INSULTEXInsultex provides a scent barrier which we had a permeation test performed on at the Texas Research Institute Austin, Inc. The product was subjected to gas stimulant for an eight-hour period. The product was tested for permeation of the gas every three minutes for the duration of the test with almost no detection of the gas throughout the test. The testing was based upon accepted industry practices as well as the test method used.

HOUSE WRAP

Our House Wrap product

Our products have the following disadvantages in comparison to the products of our competitors:

There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete in the sale of our products, which could have a negative impact upon our business.

We do not expect our business to be dependent on one or a few customers or retailers; however, there is no assurance that we will not become so dependent.

Cyclicality

The Company’s Arctic Armor apparel sales fluctuate based on temperature and weather conditions. Our products are suitable primarily for cold weather conditions. This will causehave a cyclical effect on sales. It also makes our revenues totally dependent on cold weather.weather for this product line. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, our cold weather products accounted for approximately 10% of our total revenue.

Material Acquisition

All of the materials and items required to manufacture our cold weather clothing products are purchased by our manufacturer in Indonesia.

The Company currently has only one supplier of INSULTEX,Insultex, the special material which is manufactured within the apparel of our cold weather products and our House Wrap product. Additionally, we have one manufacturer that produces the apparel on behalf of the Company, located in Indonesia. Currently, we are only selling apparel from our inventory. Any delays in getting INSULTEX and/or our finished productsInsultex will adversely affect our revenue stream. Once we have our own equipment operating, we will be able to produce INSULTEX.Insultex. We intend to use such INSULTEXInsultex for our House Wrap product.

Our Indonesia based manufacturer, PT Lidya and Natalia, has sole discretion inproduct.at the sourcing and ordering of materials for their production runs, the costs of which we reimburse PT Lidya and Natalia.present time.

Geographic Concentration

Most of the Company’s sales for its cold weather clothing products to retailers are concentrated in colder climates of the United States and Canada. To the extent that any regional economic downturn impacts these regions, the Company will be adversely affected.

Management

The Company is dependent on the management of Joseph Riccelli, our Chief Executive Officer. The loss of Mr. Riccelli’s services could have a negative effect on the performance and growth of the Company for some period of time.

Stock Price-Delisting from the OTCQB Market

The Company’s stock is thinly traded. Should a major shareholder decide to liquidate its position, there could be a negative effect on the price of the stock until this condition is resolved. . Additionaly, On April 22, 2021, the OTC Markets Group notified the Company that the grace period to cure its filing delinquency had expired and accordingly the Company would be moved from the OTCQB market to the Pink market. This has resulted in a number of brokerage firms to not be able to offer trading services for the stock. The Company intends to work as expeditiously as possible to complete the delinquent SEC reports to bring itself current in its reporting obligations and then request to be moved back to the OTCQB market. Until the Company is current in its filing obligations trading in the Company’s stock will be severly limited.

Penny Stock Considerations

Our shares are “penny stocks” as that term is generally defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. Our shares may be subject to rules that impose sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who engage in certain transactions involving a penny stock.

Under the penny stock regulations, a broker-dealer selling a penny stock to anyone other than an established customer or “accredited investor” must make a special suitability determination regarding the purchaser and must receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale, unless the broker-dealer is otherwise exempt. Generally, an individual with a net worth, exclusive of one’s residence, in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 individually or $300,000 together with his or her spouse is considered an accredited investor. In addition, under the penny stock regulations the broker-dealer is required to:

Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may encounter difficulties in their attempt to sell shares of our stock, which may affect the ability of shareholders or other holders to sell their shares in the secondary market and have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market. These additional sales practice and disclosure requirements could impede the sale of our securities if our securities become publicly traded. In addition, the liquidity forof our securities may be adversely affected, with a corresponding decrease in the price of our securities.

We also offer our House Wrapa cold weather product line called “Artic Armor” which is also madeuses Insultex. We no longer produce any Artic Armor products. We are only selling from INSULTEX.our existing inventory. We obtain INSULTEX for our cold weather clothing productsInsultex through a license agreement with the owner and manufacturer of the material. In December 2015, we took delivery of equipment capable of producing our own INSULTEX. We are currently seeking a facility whereInsultex. At such time as we have sufficient funding, we intend to put the equipment can be installed.

The following table shows a comparison of the results of operations between the fiscal years ended October 31, 20202023, and October 31, 2019:2022:

Results of Operations

Revenues for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020,2023, were $202,253$ 347,763 compared to revenues of $215,975$258,734 for the comparable period ending October 31, 2019.2022. House Wrap product revenue totaled $ 131,285$312,983 for the period compared to $80,469$193,302 for Fiscal Yearfiscal year ended October 31, 2019. Nearly all2022. All of the remaining revenues were derived from our Arctic Armor and related product linelines which totaled $70.968$34,780 for the period compared to revenues of $135,506$65.432 for the Fiscal Yearfiscal year ended October 31, 2019. The decrease in revenue is attributable to the FTC matter with regard to our House Wrap products as we did not advertise for this product line during the period. The decrease in revenue for our apparel product line is attributable to the fact that we are devoting significant portion of our limited resources to the FTC matter.2022. Revenues are net of returns and discounts. We estimate that approximately sixty percentcontinue to work on rebuilding our House Wrap product line brand after doing no advertising during the time of the FTC litigation, November 2016 to July 2021, and the effect of the litigation on our cold weather apparelHouse Wrap products acceptance, and the use of Insultex in other applications in the marketplace.

However, until we are soldable to outdoor sportsmen, primarily those engaged in ice fishing.have Insultex ICC-ES certified we do not believe we will be able to significantly increase our revenue from our House Wrap product.

Selling, general and administrative expenseexpenses decreased from $577,060$666,339 in fiscal year 2019,2022, to $341,132$464,065 in the fiscal year ending October 31, 2012.2023. This decrease reflects, in part, a decrease in stock-based compensation expense as a result of furloughing two employees in March 2019, and a decrease in$200,000, professional fees from $ 210,044 in fiscal year 2019, to $71,183 for fiscal year 2020.decreased by $,9,000, payroll decreased by $18,000 and office supplies decreased by $8,000. Some of the increases were travel expenses increased by $17,000, shipping costs increased by $8,000, product testing increased by $8,000 and sales commission increased by $5,000.

Our cost of sales increased from $126,645$146,912 as of October 31, 20192022, to $131,280$16,00 as of October 31, 2019.2023, as a result of more sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020,2023, we funded our operations from revenues and the private sales of our common stock and the exercise of certain common stock purchase warrants. We received a total of $355,000 from the sale of stock and warrant exercise. During the period we repaid advances from stockholders totaling $107,630. Subsequent to the period, we receive proceeds totaling $ 218,831 from the sale of our common stock. We will continue to fund our operations from these sourcesrevenues, private borrowings and the sale of our common stock until we are able to produce sales sufficient to cover our cost structure or to secure commercial lending arrangements.

On July 12, 2015, the Company reached an agreement with Ketut Jaya to purchase machinery and equipment utilized to produce the INSULTEX material. The purchase price is $700,000 and to be made in four installments. The first installment of $300,000 is to be made at the execution of the agreement. The second installment of $200,000 is to be made when the machinery and equipment is ready to be shipped to the United States. The third installment of $100,000 is to be made once the machinery and equipment is producing INSULTEX, and the fourth and final installment of $100,000 is to be made after the first commercial production run of INSULTEX is completed. As of October 31, 2016, the Company has made payments of $600,000. In addition to the final payments, the Company will have to have the equipment and machines installed and ensure that the machine can be operated in compliance with environmental regulations. The Company has not made an estimate of the costs required for bringing the machine into compliance, but it is considered to be substantial. Given the expected time and cost of bringing the equipment into production mode and our current financial condition we are unable to estimate when we will be able to do so.

We also must purchase new quality control testing equipment for use in testing Insultex. The testing equipment is finished, and we are in discussions with the vendor regarding certain charges. Once we take delivery of the equipment it will have to go through a certification process. Once the testing equipment is certified, we intend to begin the process of having Insultex certified by ICC Evaluation Services, LLC (“ICC-ES”). ICC-ES certifies, among other items, building materials and products of which our intentionHouse Wrap falls under. The reason we need to attempthave ICC-ES certification is that we believe in order to sellget large orders for House Wrap ICC-ES certification will be required. The other component part of the equipment.House Wrap produced by a third party is ICC-Es certified. Getting ICC-ES certification is costly and time consuming.

During the period we paid ${Amount} on our loans. Subsequent to the period we paid an additional $[Amount} on the loans.

Short Term: We funded our operations with revenues from sales, private sales of our common stock and from loans from our Chief Executive Officer and others.a legal settlement. We could not access commercial lines of credit during our last fiscal year.

Our existing debt obligations as of October 31, 2020, consist of the following:

The Company intends to repay these debt obligations with funds it generates from revenues, from the possible sale of its securities, either debt or equity, from advances from its CEOour stockholders or other stockholders.others. Because we cannot currently access commercial lending facilities, should we not be able to continue to obtain funding from our CEO and/or other individuals or sell our securities orthese sources should our revenues decrease, our operations would be severely effectedaffected as we would not be able to fund our purchase orders to our suppliers for finished goods. The Company continues to pay its creditors when payments are due.

Long Term: The Company will continue to fund operations from revenues, borrowings and the possible sale of its securities. Should we not be able to continue to rely on these sources our operations would be severely effectedaffected as we would not be able to fund our purchase orders to our suppliers for finished goods.

Subsequent to the period in December 2020, the Company borrowed $200,000 from an individual. The note is secured by one of the Company’s patent. The term of the loan is three years and the interest rate is 12% per annum. The loan is to be repaid in yearly installments with the first payment of $66,666.00 to be paid on the 180^th day from the date of the loan. Thereafter, each installment will be due and payable one year from the date of the loan and each succeeding calendar until three years from the date of the loan year. On April 29, 2021, the Company issued a convertible promissory note in the principle amount of $50,000. The interest rate is 8% and the note matures in one year. The amount of the note may be converted into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at the rate of one share for each $.50 of the outstanding amounts due and owning under the note.
