The "lightest" pack ever! By Goldenrodnm from Santa Fe, NM on 08/11/2008 Pros: Clever storage, Good padding, Large capacity, Very adjustable Best Uses: Day trip, Hiking, Long dayhikes Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I love this pack! It has great storage features and a cleverly hidden rain fly that stays attatched to the pack. Does not rest on my back, so I stay drier. The external frame positions the pack in a very well balanced manner and I hardly feel the weight. I am most happy with this pack.
lot of frame for a little bag By gear lover from Northwest, Ct on 08/11/2008 Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: When I could finally squeeze this pack on I noticed it had a serious frame. I am 5'6 and this pack couldn't adjust to fit. IT is for small women and maybe even children.
By Bob the Bushie from Nowra, Australia on 07/29/2008 Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Terrific day pack with lots of enhancements in such a small unit. Torso adjustment is simple but instructions are not included.
By Kate in ATL from Georgia on 07/21/2008 Pros: Good padding, Very adjustable Cons: Not great constuction, Zippers aren't smooth Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Comments: I liked the pack, but it was a little heavy and not completely sewn together where it should have been. The zippers did not move very smoothly either. It seemed like it would have been a great pack if all of its parts had worked like they should have.
By Dziko from Seattle, WA on 07/15/2008 Pros: Good padding, Very adjustable, Wet stuff compartment Best Uses: Day trip, Hiking Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This pack is great for day hikes--it's got plenty of space inside plus generous outside mesh pockets for 1 ltr SIGG water bottles. In addition, there's a wet compartment at the base of the bag for soggy items. I LOVE how dry my back stays with the ventilation system. The hip belt is well padded and supports almost all the weight of the pack so there is very little resting on your shoulders other than for balance. The outside-accesible small pocket is nice. It could be improved by putting small pockets on the hip belt for lip balm, small camera, etc.
By M from New Hampshire on 04/17/2008 Pros: Good padding, Large capacity Best Uses: Day trip, Hiking Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Bought it for use as a daypack for hikes and lug around backpack for weekend trips. The frame and back suspension makes it too technical for me, but for someone that wants it purely for hikes it would be perfect. Loved the separate bottom compartment for dirty/wet clothes and the included pack cover.
By bikergirl from Baton Rouge LA on 03/27/2008 Pros: Good padding, Large capacity, Very adjustable Best Uses: Car Camping, Day trip, Hiking Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Used it so far to go on a day hike. Held everything great. Very adjustable and well balanced.
good features, but can't wear it By jlnichol from Houghton-Hancock, MI on 03/27/2008 Pros: Good padding, Large capacity, Lots of features Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: When I got it I thought that it would work great for what I need - an airline cary on, daypack, bookbag, and pack to cary groceries in. It has some really nice features and I really liked the way it is laid out. Unfortuinately, the straps are angled so that they put pressure on my neck instead of resting on the sholders. Other than that, it would have been exactly what I needed, but instead I have to return it.
I would buy this product again! By Sharky from Calgary, Alberta on 03/03/2008 Pros: Good padding, Large capacity, Very adjustable Best Uses: Cross country skiing, Day trip, Hiking Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: My first trip with this backpack was back country skiing. I had this pack loaded up, and I felt like I was not carrying anything! Fabulous weight distribution, so convenient, and downright confortable! Love it! After skiing for 30 km, I did not have any shoulder or back pain like I usually do with other backpacks.
Great design to keep cool !! By Susanne from SF Bay Area on 01/14/2008 Pros: Doesn't bounce around, Good padding, Large capacity, Lots of ventilation, Secures well to body, Very adjustable Best Uses: Car Camping, Day trip, Hiking Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I did a test run with the daypack to play with the adjustments. The lady's design is good as the unused strap length isn't way too long for a smaller woman.
