    Showers Pass, a local cycling gear company, has been making waves with its "Portland" rain jacket since it was introduced in 2008.

    On that note, I just heard from Ed Dalton, co-President of Portland-based Showers Pass.

    Since he took over the company (it was originally founded in 1998 in Arcata, California) in 2005, Dalton has overseen a major revamp of the brand and the product line. (more...)
