>>2341607Its pretty insane the length of fucking we take. On my extensive search, ive discovered that Mystery Ranch refuses to ship their backpacks here, including bans on shipping through 3rd party US retailers that stock their gear.
Apparently its to favor the Australian distributor, which happens to be Sea to Summit. Except sea to summit dont bother listing any Mystery Ranch gear.
So if you want a new MR for a normal price, you either have to find a shipping forwarder who will bypass the ban or have a friend overseas to do it for you.
Id look at Stone Glacier, Kifaru, Kuiu. Except they're prices are stupid expensive, even if with direct shipping.
