    Not sure if it’s just me but personally Boss in general feels like an anti status symbol. Whenever I see someone wearing clothes with an obvious Boss logo on it I cringe a bit and think of them having a very low self esteem and poor spending habits…



  • Regarding backpacking: I experienced the ultralight community to be a very friendly and welcoming (although a bit nerdy) group of people. Yes, you CAN spend a lot of money on hightech equipment like many people do in cycling, archery etc. but it is also very common to MYOG (make your own gear). You can spend 200 bucks on the latest leightweight highend titanium cook pot. Or you can simply reuse an old fish can to cook in. And while this selfmade gear sometimes looks a bit clumsy, it often beats the hightech stuff. And the lightest gear sets I’ve seen were mostly self-made.
