No way in hell at 215 lbs can I fit in it.

Every once in a while I will put it on. I wont leave the garage though. It is heavier than I remember.

It's my Antarctic double gradient sunglasses. Bet you thought it was something that wouldn't cover my butt anymore. My prescription has changed many times over the years. I have found out I can still get them made special order without the cheek pads though. As for a few pieces of 782 Gear, I just have to get a whiff of that depot canvas smell to bring back the memories.

I'm used to pack runs or just walking everywhere with my pack. When I had to turn that in, the 1st thing I did was go buy a new pack. It is a 2nd skin. Wearing gear just feels natural.
