They came the day before I went back to work for the week. So I won’t get to wear them hunting until Tuesday. So we’ll see, they seem stretchier than attacks. Read a few reviews on the first life website about durability issues. Time will tell.
I just got these in the mail yesterday, i usually wear a 33/34, sometimes depending on pant it'll be 32/34 or even a 34/34. I got these in 32/34 and they might be the best fitting pants ive ever had. Excited to test em out. Slightly thinner feeling than an attack pant and SH reg DH pant i...
I have a tiny cup/BRS stove i always keep in my pack while day hunting, if time permits ill always sit and have a coffee while glassing or taking a break. Its definitely the highlight of my afternoon on a cool day.
I find that the glue from the layer you peel off sticks to the outer surface of the tape, which sticks to the inside of your socks. And it also doesn't stick to your skin as well. Not the end of the world, I still have a almost new roll ill use up. Ive only used the KT stuff once now, so my...
I recently picked up some KT tape, that is made for blister prevention, comes in precut strips. Its actually works really well, i find sometimes leukotape sticks to my socks, where as the KT tape outer surface almost has like a brushed fleecy feel. Stays on just as well as leukotape as well.
I am still loving my K4/5000. Perfect setup for me, from day hunts to 10+ day sheep hunts. Usually after owning a pack for a year my eyes start to wander at something new but i have had zero desire to do that.
Good to hear! Tells you a lot about the exo crew not rushing to get new items out and up for sale without proper field testing, by guys that will actually put them to the test. It is also cool that they give them to customers/friends to test them.
I think the most important aspect of a UL pack is going to be the frame, versus the bag. And likely take up a vast majority of the testing and design process. To be able to cut its weight while maintaining the comfort/load hauling capabilities while still being durable enough for back country...
It is kinda like the ambient, only kinda though. Its almost a mix of the ambient and the SG cirque lite jacket. It has OR's own spin on the alpha direct. I believe they call it vertical octa or something, also has a 20D outer material which might had a bit of weather resistance, and back...
