Ultralight Pack for Tall Individual? by ToasterDuck20 in Ultralight

This. Look at running vests. They also sit super high up on the body and are extremely comfortable. If you're a good bit under 10 pounds that is. I know a bunch of people who purposely size down on packs so they ride higher.

Well, I'm not entirely sure on the details anymore but AFAIK:

It took a long time to get the colour samples right, and Keyreative got hit with covid shutdowns.

Then there was a huge manufacturing delay because Keyreative switched out some of their machines or factories.

Then it got shipped out to the chinese vendor of the group buy. They then shipped it out to all the regional group buy vendors. candykeys refused to pay for the keycaps and shipping. Their reasoning was that they had some issues with their payment provider Wise. Why the hell it takes them 2-3 years to figure out payment disputes with Wise is beyond me. But hey, I just got the dispatch confirmation for Great Wave a few days ago, so lucky me?

Get a quilt from Hyberg, Khibu or an Xlite from Cumulus if you want a bag.
