After lurking in this sub for a long time, I’ve finally found the time to share my experience from a January trip with my wife to Bergen, Norway. 🇳🇴
It wasn’t my first one-bag experience. In the past, I’ve one-bagged to Lisbon, Sliema, Iceland, Gdańsk, and Berlin. However, this trip was special because I traveled with just a 16-liter backpack as my personal item and I had to optimize my packing list for the winter weather in the Norwegian mountains (strong wind, rain, and snow).
I’m generally happy with the gear I packed. Except for the extra sweater, I didn’t overpack and had enough layers to handle all kinds of weather: from warm trains to windy fjords.
Trip details
Three nights in Bergen, Norway, at the end of January.
Activities
We walked around Bergen in the strong wind and rain, hiked for 6 hours in the snow near …
As the world opens up more and more, this sub keeps growing and growing. With that, more posts than ever asking for advice and recommendations, and with lots of helpful Redditors dishing out great advice, sometimes the really great stuff gets buried in comment threads.
I’ve made two posts like this in the past (linked below), and thought it’d be good to do so with a level of semi-regularity. Obviously, advice or suggestions do come with a level of YMMV. Counterpoints are expected and inevitable, or this wouldn’t be a discussion.
So, dear veteran Onebaggers, what would be your ONE tip for new Onebaggers?
I’m into really obvious tips, but I think it’s a good reminder of the basic ideas behind Onebagging, so, here’s mine:
I say this because quite frequently, I see posts asking questions along the lines of “What’s the biggest bag I can get away with?”, which, whilst entirely valid, skirts around one of the …
A painter’s pant in our tough-as-fuck but secretly soft Bombtwill fabric. Eight pockets in total including a slanted cargo pocket on the wearer’s left, and of course a carpenter’s loop for who knows what in these times.
Would appreciate some help identifying these two please.
I understand this isn’t exactly the right place to ask, but it seems like the users here would have some insight I don’t into Hokas. I currently own two pairs of Hokas, Project Cliftons and Tor Ultra Lows, and I’m in the market for another. Will be used for everyday wear, mostly street walking but definitely some trail use as well. Can anyone weigh in on these two and make a recommendation that would work best with casual Outlier style? Thank you
Had a few items in my cart to pair with new earth cotton next week, (shipping $10 each time adds up fast). Went to the product page of my cart items and it keeps redirecting me to outlier.nyc
New to outlier. These are on Poshmark but they don’t have the model name. https://imgur.com/a/QQHqskK/
