Gregory  Nano 16 Plus-Size Pack

When Gregory announced their plus-sized line, I was cautiously optimistic. So many companies advertise plus-sized outdoor gear/clothing but don't actually resize the items. Instead they add some extra inches of webbing or extensions you can purchase separately. Gregory completely revamped their packs and made every part of them plus-sized, not just the straps. I finally have a pack that fits my body, and doesn't leave sore spots and rubbed raw skin after a hard day of hiking. I've carried this pack on trails and through towns/cities for a year and it hasn't failed to meet and exceed every expectation/test I put it to. Their iconic durability and usability now in a pack made specifically for plus-sized bodies. Thank you Gregory for helping bring inclusivity to the outdoors!

Got this pack to take on short hikes with my dog. It is small yet adequate to fit all the things I need. Water for me and the pup, rain gear, an extra layer and hat, emergency bivy/shelter, first aid kit, snacks and plenty of room to spare. The east access is great for your keys, snacks, lip balm etc. I love the clips on the front to hang my flashlight, clip a hat, or even hold my long leash. The fit is extremely comfortable and the chest strap is adjustable to height as well as width for a very custom fit. Took a risk ordering this online without trying it on but I’m so glad I did.

This is a great size bag for me to take to work! Gregory…does your design team remember what a Nalgene is? The water bottle pockets are so tight and small on this bag, that it is darn near impossible to keep a Nalgene bottle in there without it popping out…and that’s if I can even get the bottle in the pocket when the bag has a few items in it. I’ve made the same comment about the Nano 20. When did the regular Nalgene 1L bottle fall out of favor as the industry standard? Is the idea to cater to the crowd that seems to favor dainty half liter bottles? One of the water bottle pockets is already starting to rip because it takes so much effort to try to get the Nalgene in there. Yes, I absolutely have to carabiner the bottles to the bag, and it’s not uncommon for those bottles to pop out and sway back and forth as I’m walking…and that’s just going from the parking lot into work. Really Gregory, if you’d just run this by me before making a whole product line with these inadequate, just for show water bottle pockets, I would have demonstrated how epically the fail every single day and suggest strongly that you tweak the design before shipping these out. I’m happy to field test things like this so you don’t end up spending so much time on repairs when these fail…and they will fail quickly. Let me know. I’m here to help!

This is a great bag for everyday use, hiking and concerts! Perfect bag!

Great pack for us larger people. I think I’m somewhere between this size an a regular size, hence the 4 stars. It’s a tad too big in the shoulder vee and straps. I’m 5’8” and 185 pounds. But mostly I’m heavy and have medium size bones. This pack is perfect when I’ve got all my winter garb on and am heading out. Very nice quality and perfect capacity for 1-3 hours.

This is the perfect sized bag for running around town! It is light weight and stylist. The straps fit so well and there is more space inside than it seems. Even my bike helmet fit inside! Thank you for making these plus sized packs!!

This is a really nice pack and I bet for a plus size guy this would work well but as a plus size women this pack was very big in the shoulders and a little too long in the body for my 5’3 frame.

Great bag, and fits well! I have many plans for this backpack. It is lightweight, fits comfortably, and is adjustable in all the right places for my body.

Being a plus size woman, I appreciate Gregory taking the time, effort, research, and to create this option. Fits comfortably.

Great size for day hiking. Well-made, pretty color.
