      @jeffgrantMEDIA День тому

      I’ve never had a pair of Justin boots so I cannot say for certain. But roper style boots tend to have a narrower shaft, so you may be ok. I would personally go with the straight left to be certain. The straight leg are not over all too much loser, but they do fit much better over my HH Wellingtons.

    Awful company with third-rate quality goods and non-existent customer service. They use cheap, defective components for their gear and won't honor their Repair or Replace Guarantee, which constitutes fraud. Do yourself a favor and read the reviews about their terrible quality and zero customer service, and go with a reputable company with higher quality goods.

    • @jeffgrantMEDIA
      @jeffgrantMEDIA 4 дні тому

      That was not my experience at all. The customer service was great for me. I originally emailed them to confirm a jacket I bought on eBay was legit. They got back to me within a day and then answered all my questions about the jacket I bought featured in this video. I found the materials and build quality to be great and on par with the price point. I did not need to deal with a warranty claim, as the only thing that needed repair, I was more than capable of fixing on my own within 10 minutes.

I know you mentioned a few times about them not having pictures of the caps actually being worn. Whether it's because of your advice or not, they've added a part on the customer review section where they ask for customers to attach photos of them in their caps. It's kind of a clever and organic way to get their customers involved while also eliminating the cost of hiring models and photo shoots.

    Jeff, great video some reviews say the sizing is off.. I read a review/ comment somewhere where the person said they are 5’9 and 185lns and a size XL was too small and they had to order a XXL . I’m 5’10” and 200lbs with broad shoulders and XL is a perfect fit with room for layering . I think this jacket is fantastic and I could probably fit into a large with room for light layering

    • @jeffgrantMEDIA
      @jeffgrantMEDIA 21 день тому

      These are certainly a tapered fit. I would say they follow a European size scale closer than an US one. I was pretty slim when I got mine. In hindsight I should have sized up one for a better fit and to allow layering. But there wasn’t too much out there on these at that time. And i had an old V1 of this jacket first, which fit really well. I wish I kept that one, as I ended up preferring the tan color in the long run. But the quality and craftsmanship were great on this jacket.

      The weight difference is. It very noticeable. I honestly don’t think I would really tell if I picked up each bag empty back to back. They are cordura, so they have a bit of heft to them. As far as size, personally would go with the 20l and external water bottle pockets. But the 25l shouldn’t look to big. The space is in the depth. So you will only see it in profile. From the front or back, it will look the same.

    I’m so happy to see you’re in love with the belt and thank you for the kind words. A lifetime belt is what I hope for. I like to tell my customers “buy it for life, not a landfill.” I’m a firm believer in obtaining goods that don’t just end up as garbage in our throw away society. Items that have an heirloom quality is what I strive for. I love when things get handed down like an old watch from a father to a son. It has meaning and no doubt a lifetime of stories behind it.

    I bought this bag several months ago. Like you, this bag matched my idea for the perfect day bag. But after using for a few days, I have to reconsider. The shoulder straps are perfectly fine for me. The issue for me is my usage case. My main need for a day bag is for holding layers of clothes for temperature changes - light jacket, hat, gloves, etc. I wish the front stretchy pocket was much bigger to able to hold some of those clothes items for quick access. It's annoying having to unzip and re-zip every time I enter/leave a building into the colder temps outside. Also, there aren't any attachment points on the front to add shock/bungie cord for external carry. I don't need two quick-access pockets for small items (top & front), just the top one would have been sufficient. I'm now considering the Aer Go Pack 2 - it has a large front-panel stash pocket.

      I went with a Gregory Nano 24 and I found it to be leaps and bounds above the Matador. I also had a Nano 20, that I found too small for the needs I had, but might work for you. It is a much better pack.

    • @bani_niba
      @bani_niba Місяць тому

      @@jeffgrantMEDIA Yes, I was looking at the Nano 20 as well. The AER Go Pack 2 is "packable" in the sense it's pretty flat when empty. That's useful for me when traveling, so it'll be easier to place into a larger bag. I believe the Gregory Nano has more foam on the back - so maybe takes more space when inside other luggage? Of course it's a trade-off - packability vs. comfort.

    The absence of a stretchy side pouch is acceptable, as it is prone to becoming a point of weakness and eventual wear. An alternative solution could be increasing the capacity and incorporating a drawstring instead.

    • @jeffgrantMEDIA
      @jeffgrantMEDIA Місяць тому

      While I do see your point, as stretch material would be the weakest material on the bag. I’ve had and used ( hard) bags with stretch materials for side pockets and never had one fail. I personally would not like this bag nearly as much if it had draw strings and on the bottle pockets. I would find that both gaudy and cumbersome.
