Does anyone else here love Hill People Gear? I just picked up 2 packs, the Tarahumara, the Umlindi, and a runners kit bag from them, it is pricy but made in the U.S.A by First spear.

Me too, I carry my sig P938 every time I run (every other day)
The serape is on my to buy list, getting my preps in order before I buy. A lot of there stuff is always out of stock because everyone buys it up.

I like my Serape a lot, but mostly use it as a blanket and in that function, prefer my Kifaru Woobie.
How do you like the kifaru woobie? I have a USGI woobie and it works well for me.

My Kifaru woobie is maybe 5 years old now and it's awesome. Easily one of my favorite pieces of gear/house blanket. I would buy one again in a heartbeat if i lost/broke mine, regardless of the recent price hike. I also have a couple USGI Woobies and they don't compare. It's like comparing a bb gun to a rifle. They look similar, but are completely different animals.

Hill Ppl is quality gear.
I've been hoping for a front pack with a little more room than what they offer in theirs (suggestions welcome). But, even overstuffed with molle pouches hanging on the front to create the extra capacity needed, their front packs are holding up very well for convenient capacity while hiking/camping.
They're also very convenient for airline travel as a man purse.

Does the kifaru woobie zip/button up so you can make a light sleeping bag?

Not very tactical at all. I got the ranger green color. Its very low key.

Kifaru makes something like that Kit bag called the Koala. I have never held one myself, but it looks modular and expandable.

I got a Ribz wear pack as a Christmas present. Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance to take it out on any trips, but it seems pretty well made and I didn't see any immediate issues while wearing it around the house. I was a little concerned that the strap padding would be annoying under my larger backpack straps, but they were fine.

It does not. It is more like a blanket, but it doesn have the sewn loops like a USGI Woobie.
