Re: Which of these 2 packs have you used?

I'm surprised the Cilogear is falling apart. Which one is it? The 60L plain work sack, or the NWD 60L? Those packs are supposed to be bomber. If you made that one fall apart, any of these other ones won't last very long. FWIW, I have the Osprey Variant 37. Very comfortable and has all the technical features I want. Pole pockets, great tool attachment points, extra pocket under the lid, etc. Having said that, I don't think the fabric is that burly. That's the trade-off for a lighter pack. I'm guessing the Variant 52 would end up having the same issue. I'm pretty sure the CCW is a much beefier pack, but it won't be any beefier than the Cilogear.
