    @Deanohit How do find that Maxpedition bag sits on your back ? It seems to be designed so that the weight and bulk is below belt level, and not in the lumbar area, which is the opposite to how most manufacturers do it. Does it hang down on your bum ?

    And re survival blankets - definitely pays to look at them occasionally. I pulled a foil/plastic/whatever one out of my emergency kit after about 20 years, and although still useable, it was not in good shape.

    I'll try and remember to get a couple pics wearing it.
    It does sit lower on the hips but because it's kept reasonably light, it sits well and the 50mm belt with quick adjusters is quite comfortable

    I see the Swazi Buffalo bag has been mentioned a few times , just got one myself and really like it , quiet , seems well made , light which is important to me cause i often strap it on to my larger pack on overnight trips . Plenty big enough for my purposes .
