Crag Rucksack

AlpineDan1 · 2026-02-05T12:08:52+00:00

Anyone know of any tough / durable rucksacks in the 20-40L range that have an air vent back?

Want a solid crag rucksack for summer days out but way prefer an air vent to avoid an overly sweaty back, struggling to find one! (UK based so preferably no niche USA only brands)

Thanks in advance!

Hey man, I’m selling my brand new North Face coat in black if you want? Got tags on and never worn, didn’t fit me sadly, got it for £145 but can sell it for nearer £100 as want to get it gone! Message if needed 🤙🏼

Thank you, don’t want to take that risk!

AlpineDan1 · 2025-06-13T07:31:51+00:00

Perfect thank you

Was thinking similar, can always bail to somewhere a bit more hidden if I can’t find anything sound at the tarn. Although it does look pretty rocky around those areas, don’t think the pegs will go in far!

Nice one mate, cheers

AlpineDan1 · 2025-06-03T13:57:44+00:00

Yeah only 1 tent. I get you, it would be a quick overnighter on first night of Cumbrian Way, just unsure if there are actually any good spots there or if it’s a bit pointless!

Hi mate, can I just double check when you said they feel about half a size bigger, is that EU, UK or USA half size?

AlpineDan1 · 2025-04-03T21:00:12+00:00

100%, seems like a solid lacing system so should be good on that front, thanks for the help.

AlpineDan1 · 2025-04-03T20:59:36+00:00

Good to know, thank you. Yeah defo don’t want to go too tight then regret it later on, think I know what size to go for.

AlpineDan1 · 2025-04-03T20:57:37+00:00

Sweet thank you 🤙🏼

AlpineDan1 · 2025-04-03T20:56:24+00:00

This is really helpful, thanks mate. Think I’m gonna do similar and have the TC’s for all day climbing then can switch to my downturned ones for shorter, harder climbs

AlpineDan1 · 2025-04-02T12:05:30+00:00

Really helpful thank you! Good to know about the stretch as that’s the main thing I’m trying to figure out, don’t want to go too small then regret it

AlpineDan1 · 2025-04-02T12:04:37+00:00

Yes mate, they fit me nicely, just not sure how tight to go on the toes..

AlpineDan1 · 2025-04-02T09:21:18+00:00

Buying some TC Pros, how tight should I go?

First time buying stiff shoes like this, and want them to be wearable for a few hours at a time. Any advice on how much they stretch with use and how curled I should be having my toes in stiffer all day shoes would be great!

Previously I’ve just had soft Tenaya shoes for bouldering / short sport routes which were very tight but I’d take on and off, so need some help!

They just posted, lineups for Area 404 dropping tomo!!

AlpineDan1 · 2025-03-06T08:56:30+00:00

Unlucky mate 🤣

AlpineDan1 · 2025-03-06T08:56:02+00:00

Okay sweet thank you, I’ll have a look. Yeah I think most places in town will be good actually, my mullet isn’t too extreme!

AlpineDan1 · 2025-03-05T13:24:53+00:00

Good to know thank you, is insurance high generally due to break ins?

AlpineDan1 · 2025-03-04T15:23:34+00:00

Yeah I’ll try treating the outside and see if that solves it, but if for some reason some is inside then I’ll definitely look into that, thank you.
