    Trail shoes for a New Balance 880 lover?

    Dilbin, sadly, I haven't been able to experience these on the Camino yet, because COVID got in the way. I'm currently hoping to be able to go late summer/early fall of 2023. However, I continue to use and enjoy the Moab FST!

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD October Porto flight cancelled

    This is my exact same scenario, but for August 28th. (Although now they aren't even getting me to Frankfurt; just Toronto!)

    Partial "Portugal Portion Only"Camino possible?

    Hi, all! Since the Portuguese Camino crosses both Portugal and Spain, and since each country will have their own timeline for re-opening, I'm wondering about the possibility of doing a partial "Portuguese-section-only" Camino sometime down the road, as soon as it is safe and permitted to travel...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD October Porto flight cancelled

    I was scheduled to fly Minneapolis - Toronto-Porto August 28th on AirCanada, and they’ve re-routed me from Toronto to Frankfurt and left me there! Trying to figure out next steps. Try to get them to book me through to Porto on a different route and cross my fingers? Just cancel? Or cross my...

    Silk Liner Feedback?

    this is brilliant. I think I saw you mention this in another thread, but I appreciate the increased detail and pictures here. I’m thinking about doing the same thing! My Lone Wolf silk liner arrived from Vietnam today, and it is excellent! Great width, well put together, and solidly stitched...

    Class of 2020

    I just booked my flight to Porto today! 😁 I'll be walking Porto - Santiago via a combination of the Portuguese Coastal, the Portuguese Central, and the Spiritual Variante starting on August 30. It will be my first Camino, though my older sister invited me to join her on the CF over 10 years ago...

    Silk Liner Feedback?

    I’m thinking about buying a Peshtemal Turkish towel to serve as towel and blanket. See it here:Cacala Pestemal Turkish Bath Towels 37x70%100 CottonTM Ocean Blue https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EM644DC/?tag=casaivar02-20 Or the Costco 700 fill Blue Ridge down throw...

    Silk Liner Feedback?

    what I liked about the lone wolf model is that it’s real silk (not art silk) wider than a regular, but not as wide (or heavy) as the double. seems to fill a unique niche.

    That's a great tip! ... and I'm a thrifter, so I'll just add this to my normal thrifting shopping list! :cool: Thanks!

    Silk Liner Feedback?

    I just ordered this Lone Wolf edition Endura Silk Liner from TrekSilk. Based on reviews and other threads on this forum the brand seems like a safe choice, and I really like that is is extra wide, plus has a spot for pillow and side openings on both sides. 190 grams,and it’s a great price! (Best...

    Sleeping bag liner

    I think the opening is only partway down, but my hope is that it’s wide enough that one could open it further without feeling the need to zip it shut because there’s enough fabric. Good luck as you figure things out!
