I'm looking for a few opinions on these two packs vs one another. I've read numerous threads about each but I was hoping there's someone who's tried both.
Essentially I'm looking for the most comfortable (very subjective, I know), UL, overnight pack. Weight is of course a heavy factory but as I understand it, removing the CDT's extra's would get me within a few ounces of the Kumo. My base weight is right between 11-12lbs.
I currently own a ULA Catalyst and OHM 2.0 so I'm leaning towards the Kumo only because it's something new. I like the top lid compression idea, and the wide/flat shoulder straps. I do prefer the CDT hipbelt though as I like the pockets and I'm a little nervous about the minimalist 2" webbing belt of the Kumo.
Any insight is appreciated!
