Different route...heheheh I'm no stranger to different (innovative or retarded take your pick) If it's the Tokicos you are talking about, I've had really good luck with them in the past. I do like them, I just have to see if they hold up to the abuse. With the 900+# of tools and crap I carry in the back, they may not. They are comfy though.

I was thinking of the CalMini stuff as well...do they even sell parts seperately? I hadn't even really thought seriously about them as I wasn't sure they would break the kit. I didn't see prices, so I thought it wasn't an option.
