Recently in one of my overnight adventures, I received a comment from a guy who asked why I went through all of the effort which I did just to camp out in a nasty storm. At the time, I didn’t think much about the question but the other day I was thinking about it and that was actually a good question and it is one which I will answer for the channel in the form of a video.

Osprey Packs UL Packing Cube Set - Kit Bag Review
This channel is Agenda Free and is fully supported by the viewers.
Support TOGR with Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/TOGR
Today Luke is reviewing the Osprey Packs UL Packing Cube Set!
…
Link : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06VVVMYC6
Weight : 2.3oz for all three bags
Price : $38
Colors : Shadow Grey which has a hint of green to it and a neon green which they call electric lime
In most cases you will see these bags being used with traveling and while they work great for that purpose, they also work exceptionally well for hiking, backpacking, and so on.
40D Nylon Ripstop
YKK zippers
Created with travel and off road adventure in mind, the Ultralight Packing Cube Set from Osprey are designed to keep adventure packing simple. Created with a rectangular shape for efficient packing, zippered top access pockets and webbed grab handles, the pack set is ready for your next adventure. – Weight of all three bags :
Size small: 1 Litre/15g
Medium: 2L/20g
large: 5L/30g
Kit bags are a great way to keep your gear organized within your backpack; you can have a power kit, fire kit, clothing bag and so on.
Cons :
The only real con for these bags is the cost; $38
that’s Kifaru pricing but the quality is good, the warranty is the best in the busy and these bags are very unfunctional without adding any real weight to your pack.
The Osprey web site continues with the theme of odd and inaccurate information. For this product the site didn’t include any product specs, and it claimed that a selling point was that the zippers secure the contents. Yeah osprey, I guess the zippers do secure the contents….thanks for letting us know.

Protection - Fjallraven Abisko Summer Hat - Review
This channel is Agenda Free and is fully supported by the viewers.
Support TOGR with Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/TOGR
Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/theoutdoorgearreview/
Here is something that you don't see every day on Youtube;
the Fjallraven Abisko Summer Hat and it is time for my review!
…
Link : https://www.amazon.com/Fjallraven-Mens-Abisko-Summer-Hat/dp/B00IKQ5N08
Price : $50
Weight : 3oz for small size
Sizes : S- XL
Colors : Grey, Olive and Tan
Developed and tested during Lapland's Arctic summer, Fjallraven made the Abisko Summer Hat to shield the always-present sun from cooking your brain like an over-easy egg. The hat's wide brim folds onto the sides of the hat for less flapping when you're hiking, and an adjustable chinstrap secures it to your head. G-1000 Lite fabric isn't too heavy and allows excess sweat to evaporate. A UPF 40 rating ensures your dome won't burn when subjected to intense sunshine.
· G-1000 Lite (65% polyester, 35% cotton) fabric
· Wide brim can be folded and attached to sides with buttons
· Adjustable chinstrap with cordlock
· UPF 40
Note : Forget looking this hat up on the US Fjallraven website; to be honest, I have often found the site to be very poor and it can be hard to locate information on products. For an example, the Abisko hat can’t be located on their site even though the hat came direction from their distribution here in the states. I had this ordered locally
Note 2 : This is not the Fjallraven Hatfield Hat
Review :
Pros :
Wide Enough to offer excellent protection
Stiff Brim; not floppy.
Continues to wear well even when wet; not waterproof at all but does keep the rain out of your eyes. You could wax it but if you wax it you lose out on the breathable properties of the G1000
Breathable.
Excellent quality
Strong; the snaps have held up well and Im constantly adjusting this hat based on the changing conditions that we have here in the mountains.
Cons :
The low cut nature of this hat means that it isn’t going to be compatible with all sunglasses. Depending on the design, it may lift your sunglasses up because the hat is pressing down on the arms.
Material 'holds' dirt!

Waterproof? - 5.11 Tactical Aurora Shell - Review
This channel is Agenda Free and is fully supported by the viewers.
Support TOGR with Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/TOGR
Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/theoutdoorgearreview/
It is time to review the 5.11 Aurora Shell,
is it an awesome waterproof jacket or are their seriously problems?
Find out now!
…
Link : https://www.511tactical.com/aurora-shell-jacket.html
Price : $150
Colors : Black, Brown, Green and Blue
Size : XS – 3XL
From 5.11 : "For some of us, being outside is mandatory, no matter what the forecast shows. Whether it's a hike, a hunt or a long walk on your favorite path, the Aurora Shell Jacket is a great choice. It's 15K/15K water resistant and breathable, so you stay drier, longer, even when those gray clouds turn into a good shower. The underarm zippers give you extra venting, and articulated sleeves and shoulders free up your arm motion for those inclines. And because you're never without your phone, podcasts or music, internal media ports help keep cords out of your way. Trek on."
Breathable
Fully seam sealed
Articulated sleeves and shoulders
Left chest zipper pocket with internal media ports for cord management
Hand zip pockets with internal RapiDraw™ pass through access
Adjustable hem with shock cord system
Regular Fit
2.5L 100% Nylon Plain Weave Face with Coffee Print Backer, DWR
Pros :
Looks terrific.
Comfortable
Excellent quality
Nice feature set
Very breathable – excellent in this regards.
Makes a good shell for wind, light rain, dry snow.
It works well as a wind-shell especially when combined with a quality insulating mid layer, and its breathable and has pit vents for when its a little warmer and you want to stay dry. The waterproofing is good for light rain and will repel water nicely to a certain point, but if its really down pouring and you expect to spend a lot of time in the rain, you may want to treat it with a hydrophobic product.
Good visor
Easy access to your front carry concealed firearm – While I like this feature, how compatible it will be with your carry system will depend on your training, layers, and the size of your firearm.
