I was just getting ready to order an Olive Grade 1 Gortex Bivi from the-outdoors.co.uk. I live in Southern California so I know I pay more for shipping than most...but shipping for the bivi to my place was £50 and the bivi is only £45!!!!!!!! That seems a little insane to me...but I may be a bit...

Thanks for all the replys guys...... Those of you with the 75..i'm sure you find it plenty big enough for longer trips but if you wanted to go out for a couple days or so is it compressable enough to still carry your kit, feel good on your back and not be overly bulky to the point of madness...

Fantastic pictures guys.....Thank you very much!!!!!

Thanks for the reply's guys.... Any chances of seeing pictures of the pack in use or at least packed up as well as empty? Sounds like majority of people prefer the 45 with PLCE packs vs the 75 without. WIth all the compression straps on the 75 can you compress it enough for a small trip...

Hello All... For many many months I have been scoping out packs and no matter what I come across I always seem to end up drooling over the Sabre 75. I checked out the Sabre 60-100 ltr too but it seems too big for my needs. Being that i'm in the US its hard for me to just run to the...

I'm in Los Angelas, California and i'm looking to buy an olive karrimor 75 litre sabre but I haven't found any dealers within the US........What are my options? Do I have to buy from UK and pay the enormous shipping charge or is there another way?

I want to thank everyone for their input and invites to get together for some outdoor fun. I don't really have the opportunity to do that much traveling outside of the state b/c of work but if anyone is ever in the LA area there is some vast area in Angelas National Forest. I've gone to a...

Hi Everyone, I'm just curious if there are any of you that do any bushcrafting in the US. I am originally from Florida but I now live in California. I've noticed that there are a few people from Canada on here but I don't see many posts from anyone else. There are just a few things i'm...

I'm curious what everyones thoughts are on using insulated boots vs uninsulated boots. I'm looking at 2 pairs of boots right now both made my Danner and there are a couple of differences that I would like to get opinions on. One pair is the Danner Hawk 8" which is more of a hunting style boot...
