I have been carrying a field line day pack since the early 90s. I noticed the straps are starting to rip out last year. It's pretty big I can stuff a full winter coat in it and carry my bibs strapped on the outside . Love this pack. I have been looking for a new one . Just can't find one I like that doesn't cost 150 to 200 bucks. Found some decent ones cheaper but the material is seriously loud . Hopefully I will find something before next season.
