Ultraluxe hiking that is. Here’s a basic Hermès Birkin ‘day pack’ for $12 grand (some models cost more and have an 8-year wait list). You just can’t get any more UL than this! Any of ye lady hikers here own one (or more) of this?

I don’t get it. House and car aside, all the material things I own don’t add up to $12,000!

Ben, you're crazy. You KNOW no lady hiker would own on of these… if I had 12 grand right now (in addition to my own savings) I'd QUIT my job and be hiking a long distance trail!

Slow day at work, eh?

:)

You have missed the whole point!
This is a really up-market lady's handbag, and you KNOW that a lady can fit EVERYTHING into her handbag. Models like this can swallow sleeping bags, tarps, food, … you name it! A sort of black-hole packing system, Glory Road style.

Cheers

Roger, you got it!

Thinking back to childhood, there was NOTHING I wanted that mom didn't have in her purse! She certainly picked the right gear — small and light on the outside, but limitless volume inside.

Angela has a lot to learn. Prolly still single… [wink]

For those who won’t tolerate “entry level”… there’s also this $60,000.00 gorgeous porosus crocodile Birkin bag in black and violet with Palladium Hardware — now available for just $38,000!

I'm sure Bill Fornshell could find a way to reduce the weight to nearly nothing and make them out of Cuben! All for a fraction of the price and probably better made!

You guys are clearly amateurs in the luxury purse wielding world. Clearly.

Because when I am accessorizing (both on and off the trail), I only use bags encrusted with diamonds. Costs a mere $92,000 dollars. And when I'm feeling especially decadent, I go for the one that cost over a million. Totally worth it.

And Ben, having nannied I can only wholeheartedly agree with you… once you have kids you can throw any dream of having a UL purse right out the window!

ps: my apologies for being to inept/lazy to figure out where I can learn to actually post links/pictures… some day!

Ben,

I see that your journey towards your future sex change operation is progressing well.

How is your cross dressing coming along?

I think that you will look sooo cute with one of these hand bags.

Please post photos of yourself sporting one of these fashionable bags!
