My first pack
I finally took the plunge and taught myself some basic sewing skills. Lots of trial and error. Mostly error and seam rippers. I’ve been a thru hiker for a long long time and always liked certain features in different packs. This is a product of all I wanted.
Main body is 35 liters material is TenX
Eco stretch front & side pockets.
Padded running vest straps made from eco stretch 1/8 spacer mesh and 3/8 2# poly foam. The pockets on the vest came from Salvation Army store (place is a gold mine for stretch materials for cheap). Pack came in at 11.9 oz. I’m already planning version 2 that should be a bit lighter.
