JM>Sounds like good advice....how long does Scotchguard last? I have used scothguard for a while. I seems to last maybe 2 seasons for me. John, since you backpack 4 times a year and abuse your pack it might need it twice a year. Seriously though, after 2 years I usually launder my pack and re scotchguard once every 2 years. That gets it back looking as nice as the first time you used it, well almost. I think I am ready for a new pack, the zippers are starting to brake and wear out.
