    SG tokeen 2600 who’s running one?

    Does anyone have an opinion on Which is the better SG day pack, the avail or the tokeen ? I almost grabbed a divide 3000 Kuiu during the last sale, that looked capable as well…..but the SG would likely be better quality and made in USA.

    Kuiu Attacks/SG dehaviland pants and fit for lifters

    The size 44’s arrives tonight a little room around the quads which I like…..perfect, a little bit to big in waste.

    Kuiu Attacks/SG dehaviland pants and fit for lifters

    I managed to snag two pairs of Kuiu attacks in size 44…major brown and loden. I quite like both colours, I’ll report on the fit. The jeans Inwas wearing the day I got them was 42 (thought they were 44) so up one size should work, let’s see.

    Camera upgrade decision/options for wildlife hunting all round etc.
