Hey Tony, we got our wires crossed on this one. Thanks for calling this out. You're right, this Filson is not made in USA. Apologies for any confusion!
I'm always inbetween my Waymark Mile 28L, and my Grey Ghost Gypsy ruck. If I could choose, it would be the Grey Ghost Gypsy, Just for the fact that it looks like a classic heritage rucksack instead of a hiking bag but with the modern accouterments of molle webbing and attachments everywhere. I have it rigged up perfectly. It blends in both as a city slicking bag, but also wild camping. The only problem is that it's so heavy compared to my Waymark Mile 28, which just glides with me everywhere I go and is completely waterproof. I have yet to find a single company that has blended a top lidded heritage rucksack look, with space age ultralight material such as Xpac and Ecopac Ultra 200/400. All of them use the standard roll top design. The closest thing would be my Mystery Ranch In and Out 22L, but the material and construction just would not hold up to heavy use for a frequent traveler like me.
Thanks for the video. Is that the hyperlite 22 or one of the larger ones? It looks like you were able to carry on pretty easily. Looking for something i can travel with for weeks at a time but still roll down and use it as a day bag for hiking or exploring cities etc
I was one of the first people to own a GR1 in dyneema. It was a terrible disappointment. It kept pulling apart at the seams -- a common problem with dyneema that Outlier, another brand, that pioneered the mainstream use of this material also confessed to and so jumped to other materials. The original GR1 and a bunch of what Goruck does is, while well intentioned, is misplaced in the modern world. The originals are far too heavy for the sort of convenient light travel the average citizen does. It is, after all, designed initially for medics in war zones. Accordingly, most of the GR1 fanatics (and I was one who owned multiple of them) are folks who have an urban fantasy about military gear. I actually worked in war zones for years, so these bags were tough enough to withstand all terrains when all terrain literally meant conflict zones. But the original GR1 bags served that purpose. Dyneema, however, typically used for a decade by the Ultralight hiking community for through hiking, has no place with a backpack designed as if to withstand a tank and so cannot withstand heavy loads. Ditch this dyneema version and buy an original GR1 if you carrying heavy loads or going to war zones, but barring that there is no need.
baffles me why most brands put so much thought into sectioning the bag with an admin section, waste of space in my opinion. I'm carrying pens or a laptop around on a holiday

Huckberry is Legendary! Amazing customer service!!
Really great bags!! Thanks for the awesome video 👍🏻
great video and since you mention the Patagonia MLC, the MLC 30 is great as well for many of the same reasons! And, it can fit under seat!
Been looking for something like the Filson Tin Cloth Duffel, adding to wish list! Another great gear lab ✌🏻
Hey Huckberry, I have that same Filson duffle at 3:58 and it is made in Vietnam, not the USA. So no, no cherry on top!

My favourite is fjallraven vardag
Weird question but what shirt/jacket is David wearing while talking about the Peak Design duffel? Can't find it on the site.
Hey! David's wearing a Flint and Tinder Quilted Waxed Shirt Jacket: bit.ly/49l8oSn
You folks truly lug a filled 45L and 65L duffle bag around on your shoulder? That's impressive ...
Thanks for the video! Curious to know what's the cap Jonathan Desabris is wearing at @7:50, do you know?
Jonathan here! This is a hat I got when we shot an episode of our show Huckberry Homes at the Explorers Club.
@@Huckberryco love it! Thanks

Can we please get a comparison video Patagonia mlc mini 30L vs Bellroy lite travel pack 30L. Thanks
Dyneema looks like and feels the $8 backpack I got from decathlon😂 I swear it's on point same material, they just got a better marketing
Nice Speedy!
Hey! What hat is sunny wearing?
That Cimoro running bag Ben has is crazy
Definitely missed the Cimoro bags on this episode..!
Like also patagonia
Love that Huckberry x Peak Design X-Pac Duffel. When will that be back in stock on Huckberry?
The Duffel should be back shortly! I'd recommend signing up for a restock notification for a heads up when they're back available
No MysteryRanch?
What happened to the bag from Cimoro???
Great backpacks but some of them are crazy priced. 😮
I just checked out a Dyneema back pack online… it costs one month of my salary 😅😅😅😅 ….ok… moving on ….

Ben looking down all the time while talking bothers me too much 😅
Filson is super expensive

It baffles you that people use bags for a variety of reasons, some of which require pockets?
@@LifeCycle1978 it's not a work bag - waste of space for a travel bag and not gender neutral in thought
@@mramelb1I carry both a pen and a laptop on vacations. as does my SO. what does gender have to do with anything here?
