      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.

      The journey is the objective.

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

        Maybe so. Maybe not

          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).

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

                          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).

                              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!

                                          It would not be submerged. But would sometimes be in the rain outside for 12 hours. It would also need to fot a 17 inch gaming laptop inside.
