Retro,
I felt the same way. It's a point of pride with me that I use gear until it finally, irrevocably, dies. I'm good with a speedy stitcher, plastidip, etc. so this generally takes a long, long time. When I got my first Cilogear pack, my CCW Chernobyl was ailing, but not dead (lots of holes with patches, one of the shoulder straps finally giving way, etc.). I thought about just making due with the pack for another few years, but ultimately decided to treat myself to a new pack for a big trip that was coming up. CCW is so great that I also thought about upgrading to the CCW Chaos. But I ended up taking a chance with Cilogear.
I have nothing, nothing, bad to say about CCW and their packs; it's a fine company and makes a solid product. However, I don't regret for a second going with Cilogear; the 40B is without a doubt the best pack I have owned or used (and as I guide I used to demo lots of different packs) in 25+ years of climbing.
Brian
