The cordura is probably slightly quieter rubbing on brush. The primary time when XPAC is noticeably louder than standard fabrics is below freezing and new. It softens with age a bit and gets quieter.

Cold noise is not really a problem when worn, just when accessing and it's 15 degrees out

I'm not really concerned about noise when accessing the pack, only when brushing up against brush and trees. So overall, I think the coyote brown VX21 might be a winner.
