WEATHERWOOL - Key Persons
Ben Logan (@The.Logan.Lore on Instagram) has just begun testing an Al's Anorak and he posted a few pictures, along with some great commentary. Ben is an outdoors professional ... a trainer, podcaster and educator. You can find plenty of information on his website. The pictures on this page were taken by Bel Jones (@BelJones_ on Instagram), Ben's wife and a professional photographer.
Here is what Ben posted on Instagram regarding his first experience with WeatherWool:

Job Titles:
- Professional Naturalist and Licensed Guide
Debby DiMeo: Ralph's better half, and the Big Boss and brains and much more. Debby restrains a lot of my foolish enthusiasm, but not so much as to break my spirit. Debby also is the one who understands tailoring and sewing and garments, and -- tailors be warned -- she is a tough cookie when it comes to craftsmanship!
Alex DiMeo: Debby and Ralph's oldest child, Alex does what I think of as the real work. Shipping, packaging, inventory. Plus more and more Alex handles customer relations.
Denali (Laura) DiMeo: Denali is a full-time professional photographer who is devoting increasing time to WeatherWool. Denali's given name is Laura ... I wanted to name her Denali, after the tallest mountain in North America, but, Mom's preference -- Laura -- won out ... This was an early example of Debby restraining my outlandish impulses. But Denali is winning out lately, not least because of our daughter's own fondness for the name.
Job Titles:
- Master Blade Smith and National Living Treasure
Lew Webb: A friend from Colorado since about 2005. I met Lew because of our woolens, but well before we even thought of WeatherWool. Lew is a businessman and an extremely serious traditional archer and author.
Bob Krause: Bob and I have been friends since 1993, when we both worked in the Institutional Equities Division of the original Morgan Stanley. Bob has a passion for financial markets in the way some people have a passion for golf or carpentry. When Bob's not working on financial instruments he's playing around with financial instruments. Bob and I were partners in a financial consultancy for about 10 years, ending about the time WeatherWool began taking over my life. Bob is an owner of WeatherWool because I have a small advisory role and equity position in Bob's businesses, and vice versa.
Job Titles:
- Operations Manager at Costi Farms
Job Titles:

Zack DiMeo, our middle child, represents and tests WeatherWool in Casper, Wyoming. Zack is a Chartered Financial Analyst and a Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst whose skills are increasingly important to us. Zack works in the energy business, which keeps him outdoors every day, year round, in Wyoming's highly variable and famously severe weather. Wyoming is a much more natural place for WeatherWool, and one of Zack's responsibilities is scouting for WeatherWool's next home.
