jcrew might just be selling kelty without it being a collaboration. they've been doing that a ton lately.

[Dead_Wizard]

Which makes me wonder if they're really kelty x jcrew, or if they were just props used in that j crew show...

Considering this is a pic from a FW lookbook

It looks like they're going to be selling them. The one they picture does look IDENTICAL to the beams one though.

I just bought this a swiss backpack made of rubberized nylon off armynavydeals.ca. $31.16 minus 10% when you use the coupon code "100", and free shipping.

could you post a picture when you get it? the picture they give makes it look like shit quality but i'm interested if it's different in person.

to vamks, danner factory outlet is worthwhile in portland.

sure thing. I did some research on some other sites, and they said that the rubberized nylon is pretty heavy duty and built to take a beating.

Danner Factory Outlet is good, but they tend to not have sizes any larger than nine in the Danner Japan Boots. Also, the boots they do have tend to be a pretty wide EE width.

looking for a good technical coat for my girl (but in a men's cut), vintage or new, any recommendations? she likes the valence stuff...

[spudeey]

Can anyone recommend a good winter shell that will keep me warm and dry with layers underneath that is relatively cheap?

[EG562]

^ ive been quite happy with my mountain hardware shells.

They can be found for decent prices.

side note-

285$ for a beat lookin 60/40

Maybe try Mountain Equipment Co-op as well. http://www.mec.ca/Main/home.jsp

Picked up this Hope jacket from the Tres Bien Shop sale. 77% cotton 23% polyurethane should be waterproof-ish, right?

[Dead_Wizard]

180 south was just added to netflix streaming. Highly recommend it. Some great vintage and modern day mountaineering footage. Good soundtrack too.

[EG562]

Herschel bags. anyone heard of these? looks like a cheaper take than altadena.

[conqueror]

EG562: i am just about to order their 'ravine' bag so i'll let you know what its like.

[sjnv]

hey there, i love this nonnative trooper jacket in olive but a) can't find it in my size pricey

[EG562]

64$

Finally picked up the Archival Clothing Rucksack:

I can honestly say it's the nicest thing I've ever owned. beautiful, and supremely functional. Being handmade in Oregon and individually numbered is awesome too.

Pulled some old Class 5 ads from back issues of Backpacker magazine.

Still the best:

So Nepenthes is apparently opening a shop up in NYC this fall. Hoping they stock S2W8 along with EG.

[spudeey]

Anywhere in Chicago with this type of stuff?

[ericdw]

^^ just sell it to me

I'll pay a dollar more than he would. It'd be great if there was some kind of website that would allow us both to bid for it...

[vamks]

The website is called PM's. A couple guys are way ahead of you guys, haha. Just let me know if you're interested.

[minelee]

anyone know about the quality for s2w8 stuff? I wanna get a bookbag but the material looks pretty ordinary.

[cord13]

I'm looking for an american made waterproof jacket under $100. any help is appreciated.
