      Many thanks.  Wasn't really what I had in mind but it's appreciated nonetheless.

          Do you mean like the acronym qlr system? I would argue that that the Bagjack 3 point strap system is reasonably quick release (you pull a d-ring to loosen) although nowhere near as slick as the system they designed for acronym.

          If you're in the market for a messenger I would highly recommend checking out bedouin foundry (their Barbary messenger got an excellent review at carryology.com and I own the Genghis). Excellent construction, austrialpin cobra buckles and a lifetime guarantee. Very comfortable although the rhino wax canvas does get a bit hot to wear.  Also you should look at trakke if you're interested.

            How does Rm Williams sizing run?
            Found a pair on eBay in my usual size 12 boot size and wondering if they would work.

              Thanks cutlass; my obsessiveness got the best of me and a 3A-1 lands soon. Because I "needed" it.

                I wear sz "9+ G" in RM Williams (9.5 E real world size). They fit me the same as my US9.5 road champs and  IHVB-03's @ UK8.5E. True size in other words.

                    Having bookended the available weight spectrum with 25s & 17s, which in the 666 would you guys recommend next? I like the raws, but at the same point those 19L speak to me 😉

                                    I have problems with that quote the more I think about it. If the two have only small differences, one need look closer until the differences are major, and there's a single, clear 'A'.

                                      I see your point as well Snowy, but when the expert can't quantify the difference as it would relate to the question…. The two biggest I see are raw or one wash, left or right hand twill. Given that all are sought after, and performance variables are minimum, that leaves only the decision itself and personal preferences. In other words, I'm no closer than I started 😉

                                        Why bother, if the differences are small, why waste the time?

                                        I'm also a great proponent of just making a feckin decision.  Prevarication wastes time, if you make a decision and it is wrong, you can usually adjust, if you don't make a decision, either nothing will happen or what was going to happen anyway does…..Far better to just get on with something (imo)....
