What have you bought?

Atom+ to replace my arc-blast as my main "big" pack. My old arc-blast is getting a bit tatty and zpacks current model is too big and no longer slim at the bottom ...
The jury is out if atom can match the comfort of arcblasts but a test load with 11kg (the max I'm prepared to carry after a big resupply or with extra water) was promising. Now I just need to get out on a proper 1-2 week hike for a real test.... Sadly it won't be that soon

What did you pay for the Rotor Vest?

Its one of my favourite items of 2019. Surprisingly useful layering piece. The insulation seems to mature over time. I'm sure mine lofts better now than when I got it.
30 2nd hand, it's the older one without the chest pocket, but does stuff into the lower chest vent.

MLD bug bivi (early model) probably paid over the top, but I was happy to pay it in the haze lol.
Scarpa tech ascent gtx boots size 12, probably too big, but I've been after a pair for 3 years and shouldn't have a problem moving them on if needed as they look trebor :wacky:

Oh, and a Rab continuum jacket that I can't decide if I should keep or not.
@neeps, how are you finding yours?
Don't worry I didn't get the same colour;)

Thanks very much. Wonder if it might drop about 50 -60 (or more?) for an L? Are you expecting to use it for sustained rain?

In November it was $48 and just recently it was around $60... this add-on is super useful for Amazon:

I don't know the use case for it yet, I just know that my current TNF Ventura is a sauna even with pit zips open etc, so I give this a go now, and why not at the price.
