>>1147479>>1140607Men have been carrying heavy gear for thousands of years. Unless you have some fucked up bone condition or are like 60+ years old why the fuck are you complaining? Do it enough and you become comfortable. I would only go lightweight if I was in a rush for time, but that's not what going /out/ is about for me, so I'd much rather bring my military toys and have a fun time rather than waste money on overpriced garbage.
