@Filthy:

Next I am thinking about drilling into the inside sole with a fine drill bit and injecting a small about of boot oil in there.

@zhivago @motojobobo this actually worked. I wore them all day lots of walking, and no squeaking.

Genius Sir! Seeing a potential side gig here for you man!!

Well done @Filthy ! Not surprised…your idea sounded solid from the beginning and execution was likely spot on. You ought to post it in places like styleforum or reddit where these boots get a lot of traffic. There is value in your hack as I’ve read about many Wesco/Viberg/Whites owners complaining about sole squeak and either sending them back or selling them.

@Giles did you ever get that kayak? just upgraded from my 2014 outback to a 2017 pro angler.

[Giles]

I have a 2021 Outback on order.  It should be here late this month…

I'm looking for a large, waterproof, and hard-core durable back pack. Anyone have any suggestions? My Timbuktu bag is over 10 years old and is still serviceable but I feel like I am ready for something else.

@Filthy – I'm all about the offerings from either Ortlieb (I have the Packman Pro 2) or Mission Workshop (I had the Rambler at one time).

Ooh, this sounds like a question for @Anesthetist, @Graeme, or @Cutlasshound…

[Giles]

Don't ask me, the answer will always be Ortlieb….....

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

I knew you guys would have something awesome to suggest

[Giles]

Look at the Attrack…...

No offense to Luke and Giles. But I am hoping they have something to suggest that looks less like something from the movie Cliffhanger.

These could possibly work… but I am looking for something that is not a roll top and can fit under an airline seat (even if it sticks out a bunch).

Wow that's a good one…

[henry_david]

But Cliffhanger is cool af dude! Don't you wanna look like Sly, @Filthy?? 

Still gonna steer you towards Mission Workshop. Plenty of non-rolltop options and v well made.

Question, does it have to be waterproof (i.e. is it likely to be submerged)?

If so, will have a think.  If memory serves aome of the bags from Finisterre got some positive feedback.

If not. The Mystery Ranch packs with the Futura yoke harness are without a shadow of a doubt the moat comfortable packs I have ever used.  Also, the functionality of the tri-zip is awesome.

Appreciate the military aesthetic of some of them may not be for everyone though!

Are you implying expertise in a very specific subject area is not conducive to romance?  That simply can't be true.
