But isn't some lightweight stuff... actually more durable?

Totally agree... my old hiking backpack is a great example. The material feels thin but it's been through years of abuse and still looks new. Meanwhile, my old heavy duty bag had thick straps that just cracked and fell apart. Lightweight stuff can really surprise you.

I've had lightweight bags last years because the stitching was done right.
