jonawesome posted:Agreed, but it looked like that guy reserved a shitload of space for electronic gear. I mean I didn't seem him pack ANY underwear. Maybe he freeballs it? I mean, it can't be all that comfortable if you're doing long hikes, but perhaps the weight savings are worth it.

I was at my local big supermarket yesterday (I live in Korea) and when looking at the camping section, I found myself one of those fold-up backpacks. What an awesome piece of kit for ten bucks! I ended up using that same day to bring some groceries home. It's not all that comfortable, but it's roomy and light, exactly what you need out of a day-pack.

Xenixx posted:as a veteran i think its hilarious that you travel with a mil. duffel bag They're handy and durable. I've got my 80's era Canadian Forces duffel, I've lugged that thing all over the loving world. Durable and roomy as they are, they are hilariously uncomfortable for long carries, have no padding whatsoever. I'll take a real pack or a suitcase anyday of the week. Mine actually got so bad when travelling in vietnam (lots of airports) that I broke down and bought a fake samsonite suitcase. So much better.

plaindot posted:This is loving great, thanks OP. I'm doing a solo 2-week japan trip soon and was wondering if I should buy Hiking pack- whenever I see them I felt like they're too big. I'll buy what you showed me instead (I don't even have that much stuff), thanks. More socks. You're gonna be backpacking, and you're going to want to change your socks on a regular basis to avoid heavy blisters.

When I was back in Canada I went down to the local Mountain Equipment Co-op (That is a dangerous, DANGEROUS place for gear-queers like myself) and picked myself up a MSR CampTowel. It's made of microfibre so it wicks moisture really quick, and dries just as fast. It's really a fantastic investment if you plan on going to the beach or something, just let it dry on top of your pack for a few minutes and you're gold, as opposed to hours/never for a normal towel.

Ok, I need a suggestion from you guys. I'm going to be travelling around Asia quite a bit in the next year and I need a pack. I already have a good Jack Wolfskin hiking pack but it's far too large for carry-on size. I need a good quality, large carry-on bag. I prefer Swiss Army/Victorniox, Osprey, or Moutain Equipment Co-Op, but I'll take your own recommendations.

Acid Jerk posted:Anyone know Asian Air's policy on carry on luggage? I am using Alaska to fly to LA, then flying to Seoul and then to Shanghai using AsianA. The website states dimensions but does not mention if you also can bring a "personal item" (I have a suitcase type bag for my notebook, books, and other small items) Anyone have experience with that airline? Do you mean Asiana? Normal baggage rules apply, probably more lenient than a lot of other carriers.
