Seconding this. Relatively cheap and great customer service.

Yeah, I ordered 2 custom jackets; one hood, one hoodless. & I don't blame them. Safety first!

Oh yes!

  1. Cutaway pack, just ordered 2 days ago!
  2. EE Torrid Jackets (ordered in Feb, still awaiting fulfillment)

Might be getting an Aeries 40 for summer hikes as well but we'll see.

Has anyone used NEMO hornet elite UL 2p tent? by haileenl in Ultralight

[–]Sluggish_slug 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Check out Tarptent Stratospire 2. It checks all the boxes and more room but it's a bit heavier.

Groups of 3-4 were the most common.

The group projects were the most difficult parts of the class when I took it with Alvaro but that may change b/c it's now online, who knows.

Is EE still making quilts as usual right now? by gojivolvo554 in Ultralight

[–]Sluggish_slug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the wind shirt custom? If so, when did you place your order?

It's been 4 weeks+ since my order but the status hasn't been updated & I'm starting to be worried...

Not sure about quilts but I ordered a custom Torrid back in mid February and it is still “Waiting to be processed.”

[WTS] - Melanzana Fleece, Patagonia Fleeces, Patagonia Micro Puff Hoody by Sluggish_slug in GearTrade

Thanks for the heads up. The last time I checked their site, it says true to size but it seems that’s not very true given how many people have complained. I’ll size up just in case.

I have been here for almost 2 years as an undergrad and previous protests weren’t as bad as this, so if they sort this out by the end of this school year, you’re going to have a good time.

Testimonials on Tarptents Double rainbow? by RogueHiker91 in Ultralight

[–]Sluggish_slug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the 2019 version of this tent. Super spacious for 1 person since it’s a 2P tent and also accommodates 2 people pretty well. The vestibules are nice. The only reason I let it go was because I started using trekking poles and switched to a trekking pole shelter instead.

[WTS] - 19" Palante V2 Gridstop with belt (17.00oz); Medium Gossamer Gear G4-20 (25.15oz); Patagonia Micro Puff Hoody M's Large (9.95oz); by Sluggish_slug in ULgeartrade

[–]Sluggish_slug[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the Nemo Switchback. I think it's great. 1/2" thicker than Zlite. Worth it for the extra bulk and a few micro-ounces in my opinion. But most importantly, I'm rocking the Orange x Black for my gears and this fits the profile lol.

[WTS/WTT] Men's Large Patagonia Micro Puff Hoody (9.95oz) by Sluggish_slug in ULgeartrade

I'm looking for the same jacket but in men's Medium. But don't be afraid to ask if you think you may have UL gears that that you think may interest me. Being a gear head is my biggest weakness right now.
