I’m moving close to a 10lb base weight and still have an Osprey rook 65L. Over 3 lbs. I’m wanting to get a new pack that’s sub 2 pounds or close to. I’ve been looking at the kakwa as I’ve never really considered a frameless. Here’s my question. How much can you carry comfortably in a frameless backpack. If I take new people hiking and have to carry extra is that going to make it uncomfortable? Should I just stick to a framed pack like the Durston? I just dont really know the limitations for comfort frameless packs

I’m looking to start making my own gear. I want to start with stuff sacks and eventually make a backpack. I already have a decent sewing machine and creative mindset. I’m looking for peoples advice on their favorite materials and where you buy them from and also does the thread I use matter? Any tips or things you wish you knew sooner before I jump into making gear. Thanks

Wtb ursack. Interested in any sizes
