Discussion of New Colors, New Designs

[John1970]

Good question. Yes, those lists be updated by EOD tomorrow.

Unrelated question: Is there a new color called Boreal? Or is that a really old one that I missed?

[Darcy]

Darcy -- will the website be updated before the 8/30 restock to indicate which Syniks and Synapses have the racquet coil zippers? I see it is mostly current, except for a few colors/fabrics (of course the ones I am interested in)? Thanks!

Is that a Small Q-Kit in Cloud(?) Ballistic and a Medium All Fabric Organizer Pouch in Dawn(?) Ballistic in the Zeitgeist video? ?

Does that mean we'll have those two items in 210 or 525 ballistic colours coming up? ?

Hopefully they're the surprise in the 8/30 restock.

[Shortie]

We've got some bags coming along in new colors and fabrics as part of the restock on August 30! These have been added to the site today and we expect photos to be ready by the end of next week

Any chance the LGD will be offered in Black Halcyon/Northwest Sky or Black Halcyon/Taiga 200? Or the Synapse 19 in cordura?

[Glassman]

I'm really hoping the Makers Bag will again be presented in the lovely black and wasabi suit of clothing!

ittoujuu you can request free fabric swatches from the fine folks in customer service to get a better idea of the colour and hand

Strongly curious to see what the Synapse in Seapine Green and the Synik in Olive Cordura look like (and this "cocoa" cordura, which I don't think I've ever seen before)! They could end up as potential alternatives to waiting out a Wilderness/Cloud S25, if I like the look enough. Somehow, I always figured the recycled 630 would be close to the 525 Ballistic fabric in weight and feel, but from MikeV's comment, it seems like it's actually quite a bit different. I went to find it in the Materials Glossary, and lo and behold, there was a nicely written-up entry for it! While having the word "ballistic" to describe a fabric can only make it cooler, it sounds like the recycled 630 is no slouch, and would make a pack comparable in sturdiness to the 525. And Cordura is a nice pick for a pack like the Synapse or Synik, where there design already has a mesh panel/smoother fabric for the part that comes in contact with your back.

Darcy - any chance that fabric OPs will be making an appearance in fun new colors?

[Wanderlust77]

Any chance this is a sign that Seapine will make its way into new bags? Like, dare I hope, the Luminary or MB?

And maybe the MB in Logic Blue?

[Surrealle]

Good question, Surrealle! Neither of those are in the works right now but it's possible we'd do the Maker's Bag in that fabric. I'd say the Luminary is less likely- when we launched that bag a few years ago we determined 400d Halcyon to not be quite right and the structure/hand of 630 is closer to 400d than 525d.



Ack! I had some edits unsaved but fixed it now. We do have a few Black Synik 30s in the works. In the next upcoming batch: Black 525 Ballistic/NW Sky 200 Halcyon, Black 525 Ballistic/Island 200 Halcyon, Black 400 Halcyon/Solaris 200 Halcyon. And in a batch due a few weeks later: Black 525 Ballistic/Sitka 400 Halcyon and Black 400 Halcyon/Taiga 200 Halcyon.

Good to know, thank you!

Thanks for the update! Does this mean that you all are dropping the Black 400 Halcyon/Island 200 Halcyon and Black 525 Ballistic/Island 210 Ballistic Synik 30 from the update?
