They are nuts asking nearly 100 dollars for 1.5oz. they don't even list the percent, which should be 10%. It's probably 5% or under which doesn't matter because the average consumer has no way to test or verify.
I have tried to like these chips, and they just don't taste good. All I get are tangy flavors and a very artificial taste of pineapple. I've since asked about 6 other people to try it, and none of them said it was good. So, does anyone like these? Not going to lie, glad it got the star.
I hope they swap out with the sweet onion which I really enjoy.
I haven't been following too much about the cityline but I have seen people posting on and off about having sneak peaks and whatnot.
Due to the launch of the bracket, I decided to drop into the SF store to take a look at it and inquire about the city line.
They had two cityline bags as a display/demo item. I also asked if they will do a kickstarter on it for next spring. They said no, the bag will launch direct to stores and website first week of August. I have seen a date posted before, I think the 4th? I didn't get an exact date but I was told they are basically done.
My memory is a bit fuzzy because I didn't want to seem like I was prying too much. Here are the details I did get.
There is will be 5 or 6 bags. I don't know the color options but from the sneak peek images you all grabbed, I think 4 to 5 colorways.
2 backpacks. 15L and 22L
2 crescent shaped bags 1 larger, 1 smaller. The larger one seems like it fits the smedium camera cube perfectly, and it is the one they have as a demo in the SF store. The larger one is about 10L.
For sure 1 smaller cross body bag, maybe two? One of the employees wore what I would peg as a 1L bag. I am thinking they will have something like a 3L.
They definitely don't have a camera bag feel and padding to them. They aren't as thin as the outdoor line to them. They felt more like double layered lighter, flexible canvas material, one outside and inner lining. It felt more like a natural canvas type of material. Not plastic-like. I think this will make it a pretty quiet bag, and none of that plastic and hypalon pivot joint rubbing in the Everyday bags. The larger 10L crecent bag was also very flexible and conforming. It didnt have much of a shape even loaded out with a camera cube inside. I really did like it.
No specifics on pricing but I expect to be in line with what they are charging in the outdoor line in comparable sizing. I am most interested in the backpacks, so my focus was on those.
This is purely speculative on my part on pricing, but I would put the 15L at 150 range, and the 22L at 200. I can't see them charging too much more than this because it isn't really a tech focused back, and more geared to everyday casual style. I think the lower pricing will help people get into the brand and ecosystem. While I do enjoy my EDB 20 and 30L, they are very expensive at the end of the day.
