Alpkit Shop

Anyone else been in the new shop yet. Got myself a fuel pod just in case you never know. It's a big shop to fill and can remember it being a lot more appealing when outside owned it. I'm a huge fan of alpkit stuff but don't know if it will appeal to the people who don't know the brand.

Just to stop the swing. I've had a quick look and it's not much heavier than a harness. I don't have any experience with the swinging seat pack and don't know if it's really an issue
