Recon

Used this backpack for approximately 15 years. Best use for heavy loads. The carry system on this backpack is impressive. The foam straps feel molded to your body.

There are reinforcements on the inner legs and knees. It's not krepotec, but this pant is ultra light though. Full review

I got mine at a… Full review

Recon

Nothing comes close. Very comfortable with 35+ loads. Some of the "toughies" out there complain that it's too big. Well, the space you don't need you don't use. Compression straps takes care of that. If you ever have to lug a Barret .50cal around in mountainous terrain, this is the pack you want. Or if you go hunting for caribou for a week and have to carry your kill out, this is your pack. It simply melts on to your back and becomes a part of you. No left/right dingly-dangly. Its' on your back,… Full review

Bitihorn Light Weight Short

I have just returned from a visit to Norway and bought a pair of these in Oslo. They are the most comfortable shorts I have found especially when travelling around Europe in the summer. They are well designed, excellent pockets with zips. I can't fault them. Full review
