    Useful item but hard to justify in your pack

    What was your decision regarding the Turkish towel? I am choosing between microfiber towel and the Turkish one.

    4 gear questions: Keen sandals, dry sack, Euroschirm umbrella, Macabi skirt

    Thanks Rob! Very helpful! I think I am ok with them surviving just the Camino (now I am more concerned about my knees not surviving it). I like the idea of really breaking them in prior to the trip to see if something fails. Looks like I have to order my pair asap. I am waiting for 4 boxes of...

    Extremely helpful! As for the usual umbrella - I did try it with my backpack and it works!

    4 gear questions: Keen sandals, dry sack, Euroschirm umbrella, Macabi skirt

    Annie, I have just been reading about your money-belt system! How long is the regular length on you? At the ankles or below them? My concern is that if it's too long, it will wipe the dust of the roads.

    Great advise on laundry detergent sheets! Thanks! How much clothes could you fit into the 12l dry sack? As for the umbrella - the Light Trek Ultra is of an interest for me because of the weight too.

    4 gear questions: Keen sandals, dry sack, Euroschirm umbrella, Macabi skirt

    Hi, I plan to walk the French route starting from SJPDP from 15 July. Now I am getting all the gear ready, so, 4 questions: 1) If you wore the Keen sandals, which model did you select? I am interested in female models, but I assume the topic might be of an interest to men also. I have tried...

    Confused about Macabi Skirt

    There are pictures of what the different length looks like on short and tall women on the skirt’s website. I am as tall as you are, and I am sure I will look like a tent in Macabi. But I don’t care as long as I figure out the sizing (I am EU38).
