      I'm a fan of packing cubes, so the Pequod's shape would be awkward for that. I think that the Delireis has a trapezoid cross section, which also makes it a bit less usable.

      (I think that my next bag is likely to be a Lotuff Leather Duffle Backpack or the Nigel Cabourn Hand Cannon, which have a square section, and are relatively simple.)

      As for Cobra buckles, Austalpin created a lower spec and lighter version for use on bags. They don't seem to have taken off, unfortunately.

        They have a plastic variant that makes a lot more sense for bags too, cheaper and lighter.

        Think it, be it.

          Eye-wateringly expensive, but cheaper than they'll be on the secondary market, Acronym (Bagjack) messengers have dropped. This one is especially great:

            The price is almost as ridiculous as the couple modelling it  😃

                  And oddly enough, the acrnm bags havent sold out yet. I wonder if they have finally hit the pricing ceiling? That said, I do like the simpler pouch style messenger but it’s a hefty 800€. A bit hard to justify (even for a bag nut) esp when the regular Bagjack like is pretty accessible.
                  I like X-pac though and it’s a great material. Light, abrasion resistant, nice on the eye. The designs are cool too. Hmmmmm. [emoji848]

                  Thanks for the link Graeme, it was a great read!

                    Cobra buckles used for fasteners on bags is ridiculous. Overbuilt is one thing, there is simply no need for that kind of a fastener for a bag. Complete waste of money and and spec.

                    Agreed, but damnit if they arent fun to play with. Personally, I like Fidlocks for bag fasteners as they are lighter, quicker, and low key.

                      Right, agreed. So you pick up an Acronym bag @Anesthetist ? They finally issued larger sizes this drop.

                        Well I just got my Nomin a little big ago so Darci might just put my junk in a jar if I nab another high end bag. They are cool though.

                            Small Batch Supply Rolltop Backpack, which was featured on Silodrome.

                            It looks a tough pieces, and I appreciate the fact that the model is in hickory overalls, but I suspect that it'll weigh an awful lot.

                                Anyone see the new SDR Traveller Field Satchel?

                                https://sdrtraveller.com/collections/luggage/products/field-satchel?variant=12553858646096
                                Looks a lot like the JDM Gregory satchel that Jan has talked about in the past.

                                I like the size, shape, and that it will weigh almost nothing. I think it fits in well with the SDR line and would be a good travel bag/flight bag.

                                          Not sure why (maybe because I have a problem) but I started looking around at leather backpacks and stumbled on the Himel Algonquin:

                                          https://himelbros.com/products/the-algonquin-backpack

                                          I wish it was a little bigger but I like everything else.

                                          Edit: I guess this Himel could tide me over until I sell a kidney and purchase a Bole
