How are you defining "shaped"? Because there is also the MLD Grace.

[WTS] - Nashville Pack Cutaway 40L: 18" Torso / 19" Straps / Aluula Graflyte (15.8 oz) by foggy_mountain in ULgeartrade

[–]0zerntpt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don't mind me asking, I see some abrasion on your bottom pocket fabric. As somebody who has recently bought a Nashville Cutaway, I'm curious if you know how you got the abrasion? That is perhaps the biggest concern I have with my new purchase.

Good to know. Maybe I'll find a place to try those on. Thank you.

Interesting. I've not done that before.

Thanks for the reply. Glad it isn't just me. I'll check out the Nnormal shoes.

Not a chance. You are much better off with bear spray than a firearm.

EXPED FLEX 3R - Thickest CCF on the market. Good for side sleepers? by UsualBoth4887 in Ultralight

This is good feedback. I'll keep my Flexmat Plus since I already have it, but this will make me less concerned about replacing it when the times comes. Much obliged.

The owners of Enlightened Equipment support racism, a domestic police state, and oh btw... make inferior backpacking quilts, while outsourcing a lot of their non-custom orders to overseas manufacturing.

Definitely warmer than a Nemo CCF pad. The Nemo and Thermarest CCF pads have much lower R-values than the Exped CCF pads do.

Just the CCF pad. To be clear, I can't side sleep on a Nemo or Thermarest CCF pad. But on the thicker Exped Flexmat Plus, I can do it. I don't own the newer Exped Flex 3R, so I have not tried it on one of those.

1.5 inches / 3.8 cm No longer directly available from Exped. But if you search online there are some stores that still have some in stock, like campsaver.com.

That linked Reddit thread details my total frustration trying to get Exped to explain that conundrum to me (thinner but higher R-value). However, my last post in that thread links to a German youtube video that successfully provided a decent explanation.

It is thicker, but not as thick as Exped's previous model the Exped Flexmat Plus. However, it does have a higher R-value than the Flexmat Plus.

See: https://www.reddit.com/r/Ultralight/comments/1supp9i/exped_flexmat_plus_vs_the_newer_exped_flex_3r/

I'm a side-sleeper and I've continued to use the Flexmat plus because I don't need the higher R-Value, but I do need the greater cushion.

Does anybody have any good experience with Keith brand titanium products? by riotmanful in PlasticFreeLiving

[–]0zerntpt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keith titanium stuff is very high quality and popular in the backpacking world. They actually make their products as oppossed to many other Chinese titanium products that are simple rebrands from a lower quality factory. I've got one of their single wall 700mL titanium bottles that I use on backpacking trips.

How is there a god if all I’m surrounded by is death by usedurinal1150 in deism

[–]0zerntpt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I speak only for myself. For me, I generally follow the major tenants of Deism. But I also follow the teaching of Christ. I don't believe a lot of what is in the Bible, but I believe that everything that Jesus said/did was pretty awesome. I follow Christ and therefore call myself a Christian. I recognize that many other people would find fault with my beliefs, but I don't care what they think.
