    I can’t find this stuff anywhere for sale. I found the 50D stuff at Zpacks but that’s all I can find.

    Whats your project? I’d suggest using Xpac X21 instead, its lighter, it’ll last longer and is 1/3 the price.

    Thanks, Nathan. I think google keychain put in my work address. Anyways, it’s for a pack. I love my ZB Quickstep and the hybrid cuben has been really good to me. I’m definitely using 50D hybrid for the body but was going to use 150D for the bottom and back panel. But…I was considering X21 RC since it can be taped as I definitely want taped seams (after sewing of course). Is that the variant you recommend?

    Yep.

     

    I’ve done lots of packs with a 50d Cuben and x21 combo. Works great. Usually use x21 for backpanel and bathtub bottom, and Cuben for front and side panels

    Thanks for the advice! Definitely valuable coming from someone with so much experience using these fabrics. You don’t keep any 50D hybrid on hand do you? Can’t seem to find the orange anymore. I know you have the X-pac and will likely come to you for that anyways.

    BTW, do do you have any good photos of the various colors of X 21RC?
