    Tbf, if it’s made out of ripstop and has the pockets, I’d use a tactical baby carrier. Ripstop is good shit, and when are pockets not useful? Nothing to do with “being a man” nor jokes for me, everything to do with the material it’s made out of and potential storage lol. I’d get the black/tan/coyote over like multicam tropic or some shit too

    Why anyone would be worried about ripping a Christmas stocking I can’t tell you from experience, but I hear it sucks when your stockings get a run in them.

      Unfortunately, most that I’ve seen are made out of canvas and that nylon webbing. They generally seem more appearance focused than utility focused.

      The not tactical ones are generally made out of the most practical material and have better pockets from what I’ve seen. They are sometimes more pastel colors though, which doesn’t mesh with some people’s identity.
      Turns out people have been making practical baby gear for a while, and the military doesn’t really have much to add to the topic.

        I like pastels a lot but I do hate that color combo lmao, the darker pink should be like, pastel green. Gimme that wanda/cosmo look. In any case yeah I’d be going with whatever is most durable, color be damned (though black is always best, of course, but that’s the punk in me not the “manly man” lol.)

          I’m the same way, color wise. I have noticed that a dark blue with a lighter blue accent (like navy blue and denim colors) fits my aesthetic though, and tends to both look better for things I carry while wearing black shirts, and tolerates usage scuffs and mess a bit better than black, since you don’t wash it as often.

          To be fair to that company as well, they do have it in different designs, they just only labeled the features on that color scheme for some reason.
