Year: 2020

Here’s what I am carrying in the slings I am testing.

Here I distill down all the reviews to tell you what the best three are, and the best of those three.

I finally made a bag closet for myself, and also Reminders is a great app.

Their deals are live and here are the ones that stand out to me: Rucker Starter Kit Bundle $233.75, you get a Rucker 3.0 and Ruck Plate. You’ll be looking fitter than anyone you know when you head back to seeing people again. Or something. GR1 Midnight Navy (both sizes) $169, you can’t even buy […]

So I have this idea, and that idea is that Reminders is a better app for me than Things, in this edition, I explain why.

Just recently GORUCK brought back three awesome organizers. First they brought back their fantastic packing cubes, but added a selection of “flat” models which I assume removes my largest complaint about the folding models from before. I ordered one of each size not test. Second they brought back Shadow Pockets, which have been missing for […]

This under the radar wallet is fantastic.

What would a even more pro level iPad Pro look like this spring? I have an idea.

On now, and more items likely added around 11/22. Some really great deals with stand outs being the midnight blue GR1 which is an absolute bargain and the seemingly ‘oops’ run of the desert sand color for MACV-1s which are among my favorite shoes out there.

This is a tactical knife, and for that it is great, but for non-tactical things it is just a cool knife which works not great.

Starting a private member Discord, and then we get back to talking about other stuff.

I said you should have one, but probably not carry one outside a larger bag — surprisingly Swiss Army rules the roost here.

Be sure to vote.

This has the potential to be the best work shoulder bag I have tested.

I think you should start rucking, so let me tell you all about it.

A new version of one of my favorite backpacks.

I bring you from a section talking about iPads and how the trackpad has an has not changed the device, and end you on pasta sauce. Buckle up.

This is the best daypack you can get.

I’ll keep this short, I just want to convince you that no better backpack exists.

I updated this post/guide today to account for my lighting change from a ring light to a large soft light.
