It's something all of us look at late into the night and contemplate at work. Reading reviews on breaks and fretting over a few ounces, but hey. We like it, it's cool, and lets face it we are all kind of happy we don't have to make our own leather shoes, tent, and backpack like back in the old days. The days when durability and heavy went hand in hand. I love the old backpackers with their riffles and wooden frame backpacks, but I'm also happy I don't have to deal with my poor craftsmanship. Plus I weigh 130lbs after Thanksgiving dinner so carrying 50lbs is not what my crooked back likes. Hats off to them, bully for us.
