Patagonia.com. Refugio 26 liter pack on sale for about $54 in ugly colors. Full price on better colors. The bright blue is not ugly, just youthful.
I like the blue and would like it even if it was full price. But I need another backpack like I need a hole in the head—and no remarks about how that's never stopped me before, Sun-Baked!
I do like the bag, though. Keep in mind that if you sign up for emails, you can get another 10% off, bringing the price down to $48.60. Just sayin'... ;-)
I’m holding out for either the black hole 25 liter backpack in sea bird gray for a ridiculously low sale price. Or, for Rick Steves to manufacture my 27 liter “perfect” bag. I would like to see RS use dark teal/black/gun metal gray colors - a bit like the Philly Eagles colors. But, I respect that he stays with tried and true colors.
What is the RS convertible carryon's capacity in equivalent liters?
Avi, the convertible carry-on is 41L, I believe.
The Eagles have 'Kelly' green and "Midnight" green. No 'teal'
Joe32,
Thanks for the links. My choice - a variation of the midnight green. Matein Luggage has peacock blue. It’s really a type of teal, not peacock blue. Something like that would be nice. Teal = blue/green. Then, black trim with gunmetal gray accents and a discreet RS logo.
The RS folks should go to Great Britain and hire the folks who design Royal cyphers.
Is Chevy's 1967 'Emerald Turquoise" what you are looking for?
Cool car Joe! Then, I have to buy a matching car.
