(Not sure why bpl's site is turning my images, and do not have a ready fix for the problem!)
I am really excited about making this not super lightweight day hiker out of Cuben material purchased from this site!
Total weight is 13.0, which isn't breaking any records, but it is 2.5 non bias Cuben, and I image quite sturdy.Interior pocket for misc. sundries and a larger pocket for hosting a foam pad.
400d interior reinforcement and color pop out of pack cloth.
Feb 15, 2012 at 12:14 pm #1839869I really like the look of this pack, especially for Urban use. Something super durable and waterproof like that would make a great pack for bike commuting! The closure looks to be very waterproof.
Great job

Feb 16, 2012 at 3:13 pm #1840370Looks great! Whats the horizontal buckle and strap for? Compression?
Feb 16, 2012 at 7:09 pm #1840506Nice pack! That is also a super cool looking dog by the way.
Feb 16, 2012 at 7:28 pm #1840520Yeah! The dog is Arrow. He is pretty cool.
The horizontal strap is for compression, and also to attach a wet rain jacket or layer without losing use of the main access point.
