Carry Conversations :: Dana Gleason
…ke a lot of people are into that tri-zip design; it was recently used in a CamelBak. That was actually a licensed variation. We’ve had a relationship with CamelBak for a number of years, and it’s not a matter of “they own us or we own them”, I can assure you neither is true, but we came up with some things that we cooperated on for a number of years and they had done us some favors so we licensed that design to them. So it’s not only the 3Zip, but…
Bags For Dads
…o Mountain Bike and Tactical and all-rounder stuff. Any of the brands like Camelbak or Dakine to the more Tactical stuff should work. Some that we like the look of are the Camelbak Transformer and H.A.W.G, Dakine Nomad 18L, Osprey Raptor 14, or a TAD FAST Pack Litespeed if you’re after something a touch larger (but this might feel like it’s doubling up with your Rush 24). The bonus with a Tactical version is you might even be able to piece togethe…

This bag lasted about two weeks before I realised once more that this bag has no place in my current environment. It’s just so obvious and bulky, why the heck did I buy this thing? The bag was awesome, no doubt, and it came with a sweet hydration bladder….

And, for the past two years, the bottle I have been reaching for is the CamelBak Chute. I have the stainless version so it’s a little beefier and heavier than your typical bottle but it sits in my car’s cup holder so weight isn’t as much of a concern. It’s a nice wide-mouth…

…water bottle holder, it is the first thing I tried to use it for. I own a CamelBak 750ml bottle, and with the zip down, it was a struggle to fit it in. So lesson one: this pocket is only good for smaller bottles. The big issue is that once the bag is full, the gusset pocket becomes almost unusable. It simply lays snug around the bag’s form, even with the zip down. So lesson two: if you want to use the pocket for a water bottle, make sure you put…
