I have the Montbell UL version. 120 gms and 23cms long. I like it.
It was their lightest one when I bought it. Flown internationally with it in hand luggage no issue. Never used it for sun block only rain.
I have no direct comparison to the models you mention.
The Knirps one looks pretty good.

Aber nur zusammen und wir müssen uns dabei filmen, ja!?
Es könnte so lustig wie eine Surströmming Verkostung werden, das hätte ich gerne auf Tape.

Deal, bin dabei!

Now that's a great idea!

One side is quite rough the other nice and fine-can take it on a plane as well as it's cardboard. Weighs app 2 gms

Wearing light synthetic (trail running) socks most of the time now. I don't know whether Decathlon is loved or loathed but, they have a good range. Never had a blister after many thousands of kms and they seem to never die.

Testing.
After 40 kms.
Rain stop. Coffee time..😁

Sorry, I don't have a pattern. I draw the lines straight onto the nylon with a ruler and pencil.
The se-ams are quite complicated to ensure strength but by all means have a go
. They are all double or triple stitched.Even a simple machine would be better maybe if you could get one -and definitely quicker.

Walkin' Nice work! How much weight can you carry in it - comfortably?
Ta (thanks) .
I ran for 10kms through those trees, over sand dunes etc with about 2kgs in it and it was fine.
It fits snugly-it's the third one I've made in exactly the same cut, size and shape so I have had a bit of practise to get it to fit my torso.
It will have about 3.5 kgs on Friday with a wee bit more water. I got the nylon for free, so thought what the hell!
I hope my English gets through OK.

Apologies for the English.
I made a trail running pack from kite surfing fabric (ultralight ripstop nylon) from a damaged kite.
55 grams total weight, about 11-12 litres.
Pictures from this morning.
