What’s In a Logo? – Deliberate Dynamics

Have you ever looked at a company’s logo and wondered what in the world it was supposed to be/mean/represent? I have. Deliberate Dynamics recently posted an explanation of their logo which I found meaningful and interesting.

Here is the logo in question:

Deliberate Dynamics Logo

It turns out that the logo is an amalgamation of something familiar and unfamiliar to me. The familiar element is the fang-bearing snake from the Gadsden Flag. The unfamiliar element is the the Nyinkyim, an Adinkra symbol from West Africa, that means “initiative, dynamism and versatility” – good concepts for a gear company that prides itself on being progressive.

Are there other companies with logos you have wondered about? Put them in the comments.

OV Innovations Teeter Pouch

There are already tons of bottle pouches on the market but sometimes the best way to take a fresh look at an existing product is to tear it down to its most basic form. By stripping it down and removing clutter, you often introduce versatility, allowing the end user to explore their own applications. That is exactly what OV Innovations did with their Teeter Pouch – a minimalist, MOLLE compatible bottle pouch with a ton of uses.

The Teeter Pouch is made from FirstSpear’s proprietary 6/12 fabric which is lightweight but very durable. The “pouch” consists of a single panel of material that can be secured to as few as 2 columns and 4 rows of PALS webbing via shockcord that is woven into the PALS webbing itself. The design is so minimalist that the surface the Teeter is attached to serves as the “back” of the pouch and it can be collapsed completely flat when not in use.

This design gives the Teeter Pouch a tremendous amount of adjustability so that it can secure a wide variety of items in addition to the water bottles it is designed to hold. OV Innovations states that it can even serve as a “beaver tail” if attached to the front panel of a pack.

I suspect people will find all sorts of ways to used these pouches. Check out the Teeter Pouch at OV Innovations.
