General Articles - Product Reviews

Whether you found us through a Google search, or you?re a long time reader, you know we have written on the SpiderWebShade a number of times. But don?t worry, this isn?t a recycling of old articles. We want to tell you about the great new product improvements and offerings from SpiderWebShade.

Jeeps are like art, an expression of ourselves. Unfortunately, many personal expressions don?t always fit into the world around us - Jeeps are no different. Expressing yourself with a custom roll cage, for example, may have the same effect of not fitting in ? or at least not fitting your aftermarket top. In other words, traditional Safari or bikini tops do not fit custom cages as the roll cages bars no longer conform to the ?norm?.

UltraMesh gives you the same great sun protection and lower cab area temperatures as the generation 1 product, but is customizable to your Jeeps individual personality. This top is made of a stretchy material so that you can make it fit your rig?s own personality, whatever that may be.

Okay, so you?re a conformist (or simply don?t need a full set of monkey bars to show who you are because your wheeling skills do it for you). Then check out SpiderWebShade TrailMesh.

TrailMesh is closer in appearance to the generation 1 shade, but the material is pvc coated and even stronger than before. This shade is intended to follow traditional lines as it is NOT stretchy.

Without seeing them it might be hard to determine which one is for you; let me give you the tale of the tape.

Sometimes more is better and utilizing SpiderWebShade material on the sides offers so many cool (pun intended) advantages. Just like the overhead SpiderWebShade, there is a 90% reduction of the sun-burning-cancer-causing-melanoma UV rays. SpiderWebShade also tells us with the complete ensemble of top and sides, there is up to a 27% reduction of temperature in the cab area.

If you take your pet Fido on the trail, you have greatly improved the chances of Fido not being heaved out and flying through the air not so gracefully. Conversely, the side shades will help to keep things out of the back where say you have your kids that you probably value to some degree - although with time their value goes down as their annoying teen-age years go up. But while their value is high, you have this added protection.

And finally, security. Let?s face it, there is no security in a Jeep when you have your top off. That leaves us to the age old practice of camouflage. With the SideShades installed, the visibility in to the back of your Jeep is greatly minimized. This means that your belongings become less of a theft of opportunity. Of course a snooping thief will still steal your belongings, but not advertising your belongings to the passing world will help.
