My gear/pack layout from base layers to binos

[Bluumoon]

1 inch, same size as the webbing.

Thanks, don’t have the side bags on hand yet. Bought the EXO knowing I would prob want the side bags, confirmed that pretty quickly.

The SG side bags on the Exo looks like a great add on. Are you guys running out of volume in the pack or just looking for better pocket layout/access or something else?

Being able to access things without undoing the main compression straps.

Anybody know what kind of modification would be necessary (if it could be done at all) to add the side bags to a SG Sky5900?

Not to derail anyone on the side bags for the K4- they work and I am using them on it. However, there may be something in the works….

If they fix those bags after I sold my k4 frame I'm gonna be real annoyed.

Formidilosus - I couldn’t find the details on the contents of your emergency stash in your bino harness that you only open in a real emergency that’s the cue to you that you need to end your trip. Can you go over what’s in that and why you started doing that?

Cheers for the info form always enjoy reading your posts

Im glad im not the only one that found that with the 4k side pockets except i have found it a bonus compaired to my older ospray pack in that it keeps the profile smoother and found it much better over all for nz hunting as it doesn't snag on every and anything. I havnt used in the snow yet tho might change then or when i really have to load it up.

I like the sound of a bag tweak. Really digging the K4 frame, but pack pockets and weapon sling system could use a couple small changes imo.

They need to eliminate everything about the current one and start completely over from scratch.

I knew as soon as the first picture was posted that this thread was going to cost me money.

^This. Well done on the breakdown, very helpful.

Form, how would you compare the fit of the SG Grumman to the Kifaru LPP. I’m a medium in everything but the LPP has the volume inside of it of a large, to be able to layer. This works perfectly for me. I’m wondering if the Grumman is more form fitting where a base and mid layer would be the only thing comfortable underneath, or it’s very roomy like the LPP

The Grumman is more form fitting. If you want to layer much under it, you’ll want to size up.

I will try to write out the contents this week.

Socks- injinji Toe sock liners. Over top is Mongolian camel wool or Yak wool socks. Legitimately better in every regard of performance than merino. I carry and use when required a pair of waterproof socks.

For Injinji toe sock liners, do you use the Liner Crew or Liner Crew Wool?

Usually the liner crew, but I’ve used the wool as well. Both in base layer weight for me
