Alpaka Vertex Pouch

Read More

A sling that also doubles as a massive tech pouch. Made by Alpaka, so I am sure it’s built like a brick shit house… Still, man it’s big to market as a tech pouch and as a sling, it’s limited because it’s so divided up. Might be great for specific use cases though…

AirTag Wallet

Read More

I lost my wallet this summer. It sucked… I eventually found it, but not after a week of searching and wishing I had an AirTag in my wallet to end my misery.

Apparently, this EKSTER cardholder is the best AirTag enabled example on the market. I’ll report back.

Acronym Messenger

This is often lauded by bag geeks as the most durable, functional, and flexible messenger bag ever offered. It’s also priced at damned near $2000.

Yeti GoBox

Read More

So Yeti makes an innovative cooler that keeps shit cold forever… and they do it with this great marketing that creates a sort of “market cult” amongst outdoor people. They then parlay that success into a line of expensive mugs and bottles that do their job really well and introduces their brand to everyday people – even if they aren’t into the outdoors.

So, what’s next? Feels like Yeti has been trying to get into as many markets as they possibly can using materials and technology they know. Their latest aim appears to be the Overland guys. It fits…

This is the GoBox 15. Essentially, it’s a $125 plastic Ammo Box.

Atlas Backpack

I’ve used Atlas stuff for years. They make the best modern tool rolls on the market – no doubt. And now, they are introducing a tool-focused backpack. Looks pretty dope.

CPL24 in X-Pac

Read More

My favorite backpack is probably the GoRuck GR2. BUT, the Evergoods CPL24 has always been a close second. One of the things that has always kept it from the top spot is the 840D nylon used in its construction. It gathers dust, hair, and other crap like a magnet of sorts… and soon looks rougher than I’d like.

Today though… The CPL24 is launched in X-pac – my absolute favorite material for a pack.

Alpaka Shift V2

Read More

I’m not normally a “top-loader” bag guy, but this new Shift Bag from Alpaka sort of defeats the limitations of that design with a large easy access pocket up front. And like everything from these guys, it’s built like a brick shit house.
