I have a Maxpedition Falcon-ii. It's a nice bag with all the Molle I could want, a hydration bladder pocket, and an OK assortment of pockets. The colors they have are really ugly though and the fabric of the bag itself is really stiff though, so I got it in black. At around ~$130 it's definitely a lot more affordable than the TAD bag. I wish someone would make a similar backpack with waxed canvas.
I work for local gov't so in the event of a di...

Hi guys,
Excuse the length of my post but I felt the need to address everyone's questions and criticism and hopefully alleviate any others.
My name is Nathan Creech and I am the owner and knifemaker at Kestrel Knives. I have been using and making Titanium knives for a little over 4 years now. I understand the skepticism as most people are not familiar with the knives or the process and thought behind it. Many are only familiar with Ti dive knives t...

Wow! Did not see this when I posted a request to drop the the Klymet Static V Junior.
I started section hiking the AT with an Exped UL Synmat 7M. A a 72 x 20.5 rectangle with r3.3, 2.8” loft, weighing (ugh) 16.9oz. The r factor has been perfect for three season backpacking. I'm a side sleeper and that 3" loft was great. the side baffles are a tad higher than the others, creating a cradle effect.
I love it, but I didn't need the length, and am ...

Just received my order over a week early, so I'm pretty happy about that-- est. ship date 8/17, shipped 8/8, arrived 8/12. Since I just received it, I haven't yet taken it out camping (only slept in it at home), but will try to remember to update when I do. Since this is my largest Massdrop purchase to date, and since Zerogram is a relatively new kid on the block and doesn't have a lot of public feedback yet, I thought it would be worthwhile to w...

In 2015 I purchased the Hennessy Ultra Light Backpacker Asym Zip, and ordered the larger rainfly (Hyperlite Asym Rainfly 20D SilNylon). I've been section hiking on the AT in New England. I gave up my ultra light 2-lb, 1-person tent for this hammock system.
At 63 years old, I 100% love this shelter system. 4-days ago, I ended a 7-day backpacking trip on the AT in NH. I had 3 consecutive days of rain, and intermittent rain on other nights . With ...

Dear DannyMilks, I work in product development for a manufacturing company. I understand delays happen, especially when sourcing from overseas vendors. I have previously worked in retail, e-commerce and order fulfillment as well. I know what it's like to be stuck between a rock and a hard place in circumstances beyond your control. I've been the guy who is the only "customer-facing" representative and get to catch the grief of disgruntled custo...

Biolite and 5" firebox are both way too heavy for backpacking at 1.5-2 and 2 lb.
The vargo stove is absolute trash. It's light and easy to put together but it doesn't get enough air flow so you have to keep the door wide open all the time or the fire goes out. This causes the flames to shoot out the side instead of onto your pot so it takes forever to boil water. It's also really hard to add sticks to a very tiny firebox from the side while i...
