This is my trusty Klättermusen Grip 40L.
I think Klättermusen used the be in the outdoor industry what Iron Heart is now in the denim scene - the must rugged, impeccable gear money could buy.

No buzz about the Carryology Mission Workshop drop eh?
I was up in Sydney a fortnight ago when it landed, and I didn't pay much attention to it.
It looks a nice bag, and I do like the adjuster with the rocket engraving.
There was also the Chimera sling that dropped last week, but that's also sold out.
The most interesting sounding project that they're doing is the Berserker, which is the follow up to the GoRuck Samarai from last year.

@Graeme I love my GoRuck Samurai and was wondering if you had the details on the Berserker. I must not be looking in the right place…
Can you help me?
@goosehd all I know is that it's due in the summer or fall of this year, and it'll be based around the GR1.
There's also a line in the collaborations calendar (which you can find in their Facebook group) that reads: GORUCK x Carryology Samurai Expansion (Summer)
-
@Seul I used a very similar sling by Patagucci for years til the trims all went to hell. Excellent bag you have there.
-
@Graeme @mclaincausey I was intrigued by the MW Mars bag made for Nasa and told my wife how much I would love to have one in a day bag size. I guess I fell for the all too convenient story feeding into a collab, but I guess it worked. I ended up pre ordering and HOPE it shows up for our London trip in July.
As for carryology and their writing… it’s completely obnoxious and it is incredibly inconvenient. I find myself having to read it all 3-4 times to figure out wtf he is talking about.
Anyone get the sling?
-
@mclaincausey reminds me of that SouthPark episode where everyone smelled their farts out of a wine glass
-
@Anesthetist …good reference! I was also thinking about the Seinfeld episodes and the Peterman catalogs.
-
@goosehd oh yeah man, I love those episodes. I’ve been rewatching Seinfeld and it’s still so good
-
@mclaincausey This made me chuckle! Couldn’t be truer
Not quite as bad as Vollebak though -
I love those Patagonia slings too. I have a black one, and now so does my girlfriend because she liked mine so much. Yes, we look super cool together.
-
@Cutlasshound I gotta say tho, I have the Solar Charged jacket and it’s pretty cool
-
@Cutlasshound OMG. Half my inbox storage is Volleback screeds. I’m not even sure when I gave them me email
-
@Anesthetist I'll be interested in hearing what the NASA bag is like when it arrives. Mission Workshop make nice gear.
-
@goosehd I bought the gen1 Solar off their clearance rack so it is a little large on me but can fit over layers and can cinch down a little. It unfortunately isnt very breathable so it is surprisingly warm for being so thin. It does glow like a son of a gun after even a few min of sunlight,
-
@Anesthetist what a wormhole…
I didn’t know that these kinds of materials were being used in clothing. It’s fun to look through, but the prices are kind of crazy (understatement)…It would have to be on clearance to make that kind of leap, although at one point I said the same of IH.
How is the fit and finish? Worth it at sale prices?
-
@Graeme I’m VERY excited about it. As a space geek/ retro space age nerd I cant wait to get it in a couple months. I have heard nothing but good things about Mission and as one redditor said, “this bag as your first MW is like losing your virginity to Selma Hayek.”
