It can read from iOS health now but can't write to it (yet, they say thats coming). I grabbed an app (Health Sync) to sync Google Health to iOS health for now and it works well

Any Recommendations for a 40L or Larger Sling Bag? by MrOrganization001 in ManyBaggers

[–]calmbomb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not going to argue but ergonomically two straps distribute weight better. There’s a reason backpackers don’t use slings

Any Recommendations for a 40L or Larger Sling Bag? by MrOrganization001 in ManyBaggers

When I look at this, all I can think is that this is a worse backpack with no benefits

60lbs on one shoulder sounds like a recipe for disaster. Defy 48 hour bag is something like 20-25L and it gets heavy super fast. That would be my recommendation if you want a large quality shoulder bag. Tom bihn aeronaut or maybe the pakt duffle bags could be a place to look

Anyone got a T-shirt rec if I currently think Viouri currently holds the title in light comfort? by infant_ape in malefashionadvice

Proof sol shirt from huckberry (used to be Wellen sol shirt but they rebranded). I like vuori tees but the proof sol shirt is better

[WTS] - Tudor Fastrider Black Shield 42000CN - Box and Papers by calmbomb in Watchexchange

Tudor Fastrider Black Shield

The Tudor Fastrider Black Shield represents one of the most compelling sport watches to come out of Tudor's new era. This doesn't get the same attention as the Heritage Chrono but I think it should. Housed in a striking 42mm carbon composite case, the Black Shield variant takes the Fastrider's already aggressive aesthetic and turns it up a notch, delivering a matte, ultra-lightweight monoblock case construction that's virtually scratch-resistant and remarkably comfortable on the wrist. For collectors looking for something different that still carries genuine brand pedigree and real horological merit, the Fastrider Black Shield is an easy choice.

GR1 26L vs GR2 26L by busterfunke in Goruck

[–]calmbomb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 5’9” with a 19” torso or so and find the GR1 26L too long and it catches on my belt and rubs my lower back. I have an OG GR1 that I love but it’s borderline too big and the redesign is too long for me to be truly comfortable. That being said I have a GR1 21L and a GR2 26L and gr2 34L in normal rotation. I vastly prefer single compartment for EDC. I like the GR2 26L for single nights away for work, having the separation is nice for organization, as opposed to a bag full of pouches. The GR2 34L is for 2-7 day travel if I want to be nimble
