I'm trying to get a bit more use out of my shitty old Grivels (8 years old and counting, plus a lot of weight impact onto them in that time
), and I snoozed and losed and missed Scouse selling off his Purple Warrior.... Also the repair / reuse principle.
The outer fabric is fairly shredded on a couple, but I've got a local lass who is a seamstress and reckons she can patch them up (better than my current finger tape job...)
That leaves the foam. It's a bit squishy in a couple of them. I did get some reconstituted foam to bulk out the oldest one, but that's so heavy that I tend to only zip it in for roadside highballs. Other than that, is it best to replace to high density foam? Or the low density foam? Or experiment? Any standards I should be looking for?
