    • Anatomically curved shoulder straps and a padded hipbelt help distribute weight for load-carrying ease
    • Shoulder straps, hipbelt and ventilated back panel are lined with moisture-moving mesh that dries quickly, helping you stay comfortable in the heat of hiking
    • Stiff single stay shaves weight compared to traditional stays; HDPE framesheet adds support
    • Sternum strap and load-lifter straps help balance the load; pulleylike Scherer Cinch makes it easy to tighten the hipbelt
    • Roomy, panel-loading main compartment features an interior reservoir sleeve and tube port for carrying a hydration reservoir (sold separately)
    • Large front pocket contains an organizer panel with a key fob and map pocket
    • Organize small essentials in 2 zippered side pockets and small zippered front stash pocket
    • Attach equipment to the exterior of the pack with a daisy chain and an ice-axe loop

        Comments about Kelty Redwing 50 Pack:

        This is a great pack for the money. I own an ultralight backpack but really wanted to try a panel loader as I like easy access. For only a pound more, and much less cost, I got exactly what I was looking for. More than enough room for a weekend trip depending on your gear and such. Plenty of adjustment points without to many straps hanging everywhere. I highly suggest this if you like panel loaders and a great price.

        Comments about Kelty Redwing 50 Pack:

        I own the old-style Redwing 44 which is fine for a summer hike when extra supplies and clothing are not necessary. The RW50 is a better option for packing a bit more stuff, especially in the Rockies where you do need to plan ahead. I wasn't sure about the new design; I miss the outer/inside pockets BUT the larger pocket on top of the pack makes up for it. I can store rainwear/first aid/etc without having to open the main compartment...that is nice. I tried the Osprey Kestrel (my first choice) and others. The Kelty just fit me right and that's the main thing. So, comparatively, it lacks a few bells and whistles but it feels right. For an overnight hike I'd go with a larger pack.

          Comments about Kelty Redwing 50 Pack:

          Great pack. My favorite thing about it is its versatility. I use this every weekend for one thing or another. If I'm going to the resort, it fits ski boots, pants, jacket, goggles, gloves, and skis. Its so great to have this and not have to worry where everything is and to have your hands free walking from the car to the resort. I would buy this pack just for that reason. I've used it on day hikes, overnight hikes, and a three day camping trip. I think anything over three days would probably be pushing it for space. Great durability as well. All of the clips, straps, and zippers still work great. No tears or rips in the fabric.

          Excellent pack for any type of outing under 4 days

          Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

          Needed the largest carry on capable backpack for a week out of country. After looking at a lot of products, this was the lightest,best priced,well made and adjustable item I found.
