    berghaus "centurio" vs. karrimor "sabre" ?!

    Issue for me with the Sabre 45 is the back foam, effectively the internal frame is too hard. On the 35 it's perfect and kind of hugs the back as well as doubling as a kneel pad. Need to source a softer but still supportive back support foam. Any suggestions/hacks for a softer but still...

    Sleeping bag on a budget
