Luggage Bags and Packs

[Graeme]

Another successful raid on the Carryology Store during it's absolutely final weekend. (I thought that was last week.)

A Bedouin Foundry Pequod that I'm proxying. Maybe.

The least macho, and therefore coolest, GoRuck ever. A Kid Ruck in pink. I picked this up for my brother's daughter, but I suspect that my sister will like it.

And a Tanner Goods Scout Wallet. My father was making noises about needing a new one a while back, and he'll hopefully appreciate this.

Nice buys, I still cant believe any of those bags were still there.

nice picks….

bought this one from Brownbreath B.L.C. today

was €7.99  ;D, instead of the usual western retail of around $100

Is that a sling bag or a small messenger? @rocket

Here is my "Cave" bag from Hobo Japan x ARAI-TENT. I've been reading about Hobo for a while but they seem pretty uncommon outside of Japan. I saw that Haven in Vancouver does carry a variety of their stuff and might eventually get another.
This bag has three large, thick leather lash tabs and three compartments with heavy YKK zips. The small compartment on the bottom collapses when empty but is large enough to hold my ultralight camp chair.

The fabric is "celspun" nylon which has a lot of texture and sheen.

The straps are a little snug near the top at the attachment point but it's not uncomfortable. I think it might be for someone with a large frame.

I have a Hobo camera pouch somewhere, that I bought ages ago…

for the BLC it's a waist bag

Looks good and can't beat it for the price [emoji385]

Quality is decent, Made in Korea, it's a Korean brand, usual YKK zips and waterproof nylon on the rain target sections, a good size imo… Nothing super fancy but, as you said, for that amount of money...  a fun pieces for some walking or urban exploring stuff...

Wehre did you get it from? I somehow like it.

Enjoy ya addiction!

Looks great. Especially for the price. Lots of decent carry brands coming out of Korea these days, seen a few awesome ones over recent months.

Noticed that as well, waist / fanny bags are extremely popular over there. I bought a bunch of Made in USA Gregory fanny bags some time ago and sold them all to Korea, Indonesia, etc…

@Jordan23 picked it up in a local TK Maxx, was the only one I could find there, I had a look  ;), but worth a try in your local one(s)

[Jordan23]

Thx bro, worth a try to ask. Enjoy it!

Enjoy ya addiction!

Nice @cole. I have the same bag and it's super nice but is also pretty heavy even empty.

FASTPack?

[Cole]

@Anesthetist

Yes, it is heavy. I have the feeling that this backpack  weights as much empty as the backpack of my wife fully loaded. But in its defence I must say even when it is loaded it never feels heavy when worn. On the other hand I have to admit I never made any long hikes with it.

@DougNg
Yup, the TAD fast pack litespeed.

I just read through every post.  Great information and makes me realize I don't know what I want!  You guys are a wealth of information!!

I know that search/struggle. Worth the time to find the right make/model indeed!

After seeing Gile's Stormfront bag, I thought I'd treat myself to one of there roll top backpacks.

I'm no fisherman, so it will be used on the bike.

Bright and waterproof…perfect.

[Giles]

I've got the previous version of that too.  It is amazing never lets a drop of water in and is so waterproof, it can be used as a flotation aid, and a pillow when needed…..
