OK we have the nano bivy and cat tarp.
when can we see the nano stuff sacks, X-NANO tarp, nano ponchos, nano packs, nano VB or other gear in the gear shop?
also who is the first to dish out the $300 to get a nano bivy and tell us about it?
when can we see the cocoon parka, and is there going to be a cocoon vest? and this new cocoon jacket, when and how much?
are there prototypes on any of this gear? if so, tell us the weights and estimated costs, thanks RJ
Ryan my NANO pack is a little larger than a G6 and weighs just under 1oz if I leave the mesh side pockets off. With full mesh side pockets on the side and front the pack weighs 2.25oz.
wait, I thought you use cuben?
is this the same stuff?
YES, some of it is maybe all. But remember they have a number of different products. I only have 3 different kinds of Cuben.
There are a lot of ways to laminate one material to another and new innovations all the time.
Isn’t science great?
