List Chinese shit on AliExpress actually worth buying. Most non-cottage-industry gear from outdoor stores is cheap Chinese manufacture anyways, so why not cut out the middleman?

Recommendations:
- Anything titanium like titanium cookware, stakes, trowel, etc. All seems good so far albeit on the thin side
- Packable towel and collapsible plastic plates both seem good
- Mesh sacks are serviceable

DO NOT buy:
- uhmwpe cord. The sample I bought is thin, loosely braided and is not waxed for abrasion resistance. Won't last in the field. I will never doubt you again Samson
