Wow! That is a very nice collection!

[Willowbreeze]

WOW. Now all you need is Dawn and Grass and you would have them all, I think! Love seeing what the new Acuity looks like against all the other colors

Thanks @jdowney83 that's a great family photo of Dyneema/halcyon!

Great picture of your packing cube shoulder bags. What an amazing collection! Is your steel 400d or 200d?

That’s impressive. What a collection you have there.

How do you tell the difference? I think its 400d though. It does seem more "rigid" for lack of a better word than the ones I know are 200d.

The lighter weight 200d has the diamond shape pattern imprinted in the fabric. It's part of the weave. And the 400d is thicker and the fabric is smooth. Take a look at your other 400d colors like original nordic and original black where do they not have the diamond shape and then compare those fabrics to the ones you know are 200d like zest or solar, then you can tell if your steel has that diamond pattern. Sorry if this isn't making sense. I'm not doing a very good job of describing the difference.

It is 400d, definitely has a diamond pattern. Thanks!

Oh, my!
That's a lot of colors; splendid!
Fjord was the best color ever.

I think I confused you. Sorry! Here is a picture of my two Steel halcyon Side Effects. The one on the right is Steel 400d and the one on the left is Steel 200d. As you can see the 200d (left) SE has the diamond pattern on the fabric. Since your packing cube should bag does, in fact, have that diamond pattern, it is definitely 200d Steel.

Sorry, it is 200d, not sure why I put 400d. It has a diamond pattern for sure. I am digging the SE, never did try one! Thanks again!
