I’m finishing up my Archon review. Do you guys have any questions you’d like answered?

  1. How is it for one sticking?
  2. What is new and unique about this saddle compared to the XC?
  3. Does it carry dump pouches, rappel kit, bow hoist other gear well or will it tend to sag?
  4. Warranty
  5. Price
  6. More for leaning or sitting?
  7. Does it have known, climb rated buckles?
  8. What works better with it for dump pouches attachment, tri-glides or molle straps?
  9. What do you like about it?
  10. What do you find needs improvement?
  11. Is it an improvement over the XC?
  12. Does it seem the same, better or inferior in terms of materials quality and workmanship than the XC?
 
What @bigmike23 said. Direct comparison to the Latitude.

I will say though, I was able to go to the CRUZR shop in TN and see one in person. The quality is the exact same as the XC because they are being made on the same machine by the exact same person. I was not able to wear it so I can’t comment on that at all, but if you love the XC then definitely be ready to take a look at this two piece for your wardrobe.

I do own the XC. I am 6’5,230lbs, 38 inch waist and athletic build and love it.
 
I agree on the comparison to the Latitude. Maybe quickly go through the pros/cons of the 2 panel vs one panel.

Love your video reviews, looking forward to watching this one!
 
I used an ESS all season last year and really liked it once I got all set up.There were times however that I wanted to stick my head through a brick wall just getting it on before a hunt.I ended up buying a cruiser XC and it was better all the way around but I still like sitting in a two panel a little better so I ordered an archon when they started the pre-order.

I’m going to do a 2021 saddle comparison later in the year. I’ll say this though, they each have their advantages and disadvantages. I think the Archon is a better choice for ounce counters, one stick climbers, and noise conscious people.

Was excited about an XL Method coming out this season, but after seeing the Archon and reading all the great reviews on the XC......think I'll give the Archon a go. Great reviews on your channel and very thorough, only thing missing is an Archon review. :wink:
