I think I seriously have an addiction every trip I feel I need a different kind of bag
I wanted a quick way to choose the right bag and load the right items for that bag for a specific trip in only a minute or so. Here’s what I’ve developed so far.
I’m using a door mounted shoe rack, with custom magnet based labels and loose categorization.
I’ve got bags in various sizes and styles and combined with this system I can do a custom loadout pretty quick and clean. Is anyone doing something similar?
What a nice surprise! Backpack Paris is a well stocked store in the 3rd arrondissement, with an amazing selection of EDC, Travel, hiking bags and more. Really nice staff. Only went there to grab a duffel bag, and ended up also buying a 21L from Wandrd. Such is the many bagged life!

A must-see for anyone in this community if you happen to be in Paris.
Wanted to take a round-trip flight over the weekend for some time and Milan, Italy turned out cheapest to get to by plane. My bag is personal item-sized (10L) (third picture with shoe and JBL for scale)
Unfortunately I am ill so I need to take plenty of tissues and medication! Still quite happy with how little I’m taking
The bag in question. Commented the lessons I leaned.
Long weekend trip to Colombia and wanted to share my bag. Contents: passport, toiletries, 2 charging cables, battery backup, 2 shorts (one swim trunks), 5 underwear, 5 socks, 4 shirts, 1 wind jacket, 1 sweater jacket. Overall the Osprey Daylite 26+6 performed great, even had 6 liters to spare for the return trip!
I recently went on a trip to Edinburgh, London, and Paris in early November where the temperatures were in the 40s and 50s. About half the days had some drizzle or rain at some point. I traveled with one large backpack, and with the cold (I considered it cold), it was challenging to pack light so I opted for leggings.
I purchased two pairs of leggings online, the Piper Pocket Leggings from WoolX and the Axis Midweight legging from Wool&. I couldn’t find any comparison of the two online, so I figured I’ll share mine!
The WoolX is 85% Merino Wool and has convenient side pockets. They were warm and I didn’t need to layer them with anything else. They’re very comfortable, and kind of remind me of thicker Cuddle Duds. I wish the waist was higher on these, but if you like a lower waist pant, these may be for you.
The pair from Wool& are 68% Merino wool. While these are certainly warm enough to wear on their own, the benefit I found from these is that they …
An experiment in extreme openness, a breathable insulated bomber that opens extra wide. Injected Linen on the outside, Alpha 120 insulation, nylon-core merino, supplex and more Injex on the inside, Overkill Mesh at the collar, cuffs and hem. Chunky #10 pit zips extend from hem to forearm allowing the jacket to be opened and worn like a cape.
New York is about to vacate itself for America’s favorite festival of colonialism, Thanksgiving. We’re going to avoid talking politics in the chaotic way possible by spraying pigment anywhere and everywhere, but mostly onto our Dungarees. That’s right the Bombtwill Spraypig Dungarees are back and ready to celebrate. All that and we’ve got free domestic shipping going on from now until the ominous “Black Friday”, aka November 24th.
First though, it looks like it’s actually about to get cold at some point, we recommend fortifying yourself with some Merino Watch Caps, Ultracore Snap Bandanas, and Warmform Merino Balaclavas. Maybe not all at the same time but if you can pull it off we’re very much behind you. We also recommend snapping up some Alphawoollinen Duvets while you still can. We’re not planning to make these again (factory drama and all that) so when we get down to the last ten units or so …
Can we get a list going of Outlier-peripheral shops that are doing sales for BF?
The 21st century jean, cut lean and sprayed with pigment. The hardcore yet secretly soft Bombtwill is dry sprayed with pigment post production to create a deeply textured two-tone effect.
Experiment 398 - Ultracore Snap Bandana
An insulated bandana meets facemask experiment. The lightweight and highly breathable three-layer Ultracore insulation system keeps things warm and cozy. An adjustable Fidlock closure means it can be snapped on and off quickly and tightened to the face with ease.
Haven’t been on r/outlier in a while nor purchased from Outlier in some time, but just noticed some very low prices on certain pieces - in particular Daybreak and Sportweight shirts and Futureslimworks pants. What’s the deal? I don’t see any explanation on the website for the pieces being identified as sale or limited runs.
