    what you wear

    most try to blend in right?
    as such we wear earth tones camo or what not.
    I'm not wondering about that.

    I'm voicing a pet peeve.
    why oh why on a supposedly well designed well executed and funcional piece of clothing do they include pockets you can't even get yer hand into?

    I don't get it.

    do any of you have some of these worthless pockets? I hate the damn things.

    Because most folks will pay for extra pockets whether they are functional or not.Never underestimate the stupidity of a travelling fisherman.

    I wear a tee shirt and my lanyard more often than anything else. Cargo pants/shorts. and my Camelbak. Vests just don't do anything for me. I lose things.

    Ha, you know how much I hate those split pockets. I could use that pocket for so many things. Like a pb snad for one.

    Yup, dark greens and grays for me.

    The waistcoat I use has been replaced by a new design with stupid pockets and the price increased accordingly.

    If I was in the market for a new one I'd struggle to find one I liked now.

    Spot on... lanyard, Camelbak with flytrap and camera pouch, plus 2 hip-mounted fly boxes... that's the heaviest I travel now, too.

    I'm looking at this pack - I just carry a small BW slung over over my back currently.

    But... I like the overall function of this for hiking in/hydration etc.
