Great comparison. It is pretty clear where Viking got their "inspiration" from. Almost feels like they could be made in the same factory they are so close. Curious to learn about the company. They are advertised as designed in California, but clearly, with their Adv gear, that is not the case. Sadly, while I disagree with copying someone else's work, Mosko charges over premium prices for what you get, which comes from someone who owned Mosko gear. In fact, I was an early adopter and really liked what they were doing. Now, I think they are chasing the dollar signs and not what their core was. I tried to buy some of their newer stuff, but when it arrived I just could not come to terms with the price vs what you get. That's just my opinion. I am not a business guy, just a consumer.
I probably won't be using it, I'm so used to how I travel and pack, it feels weird /in the way...once the testing video is out(few weeks) I'll probably donate it to a friend.

So viking basically used all mosko R&D and did an almost exact ripoff product? Seems greasy.
Can't confirm, but looks pretty close.
Interesting. Well, hope the product works out for you for some good trips. 👍
