>>88811it was the cheapest one that they had at REI, $20 or so, got it like 5 or 6 years ago, only markings on it is the "outdoor products" logo, its been great so far, he wears it well, so long as its balanced he doesnt mind it at all, and weight wise i only make him carry his own food, some water, a few lightwieght items like toilet paper, and his wool blanket bedroll so he has a dry/warm place to sleep (usually directly under me, im a hammock jockey)
however, pic related, to my amusement from time to time it gets him stuck between a rock and a hard place...
