I would like to hear from people who have carried a cuben backpack two seasons or more.
I am getting more than interested in a cuben backpack.
I would like to know if the cuben backpacks last more than a season, or two at most. In other words, is a cuben pack a durable pack: abrasion, tear resistance, "blow-out" (lose shape due to hard-edge items like cookware and water bottles).
It isn't possible to know, if the people who have and like cuben backpacks are unconcerned about durability because they have deep pockets and high max credit cards and like fashion-items for gear more than durability of outdoor gear.
I don't mind spending $$$ if an item is durable.
That said, I expect my outdoor gear to last for 10-12 years and it does.
That said, I take care of my outdoor gear.
I have been more and more interested in cuben. I like the looks of the packs made with it.
I also like, that I read small crewing denizens of the forests (chipmunks, squirrels, mice, etal. pun intended) do not chew thru cuben. I might not have to "bear bag" my backpack.
