I know Lobbs has that whole British high end fuckfest going on, but I take style over quality any day of the week.
A pipedream, I know.
While out of town I strolled into a consignment store on a pretty little street and found a pair of Bontonis with lasted shoe trees. Probably not usual thrift prices but they were a nice surprise since I walked in to check out a chair I liked in the window.
Are Kelty backpacks good? I saw a NWT Kelty hiking frame.. 40th anniversary or something
Definitely. The vintage stuff (pre early 80's) like the one acosbysweater is rocking are very sought after.
The Kelty 40th anniversary external frame pack is an easy $100+.

Well made, serviceable packs from the 70s/80s of any brand are good. Sure they often use brittle plastic closures, but you can DIY replace these if they ever snap. The only issue I see with old bags is the wax coating on the inner panels cracking and wearing, thus reducing the water resistance. If you're looking for something more unique but can't swing the Visvim/Sophnet/White Mountaineering steez and want to avoid cordura and bland modern nylon bags, then an old daypack might be a good snag. More deets on the Kelty you passed on? Maybe Nataku could chime in on how awesome old hiking gear is.
Well, it was $70 at the thrift store... If it was an easy $200 I'd go back

Nataku, did you see the recent Beams Plus x Kelty capsue collection? The colorways could use a little more creativity, but the construction is A+.
