Great product!

From the first time I put this pack on I was in love. It’s so well balanced and comfortable I’m able to carry quite a bit of weight and it’s roomy enough for everything I need to carry. It is well worth the money. Fantastic!

Bought this one for my husbands birthday. We are starting backpacking together. He's very happy with it! We had to adjust a little bit, and then it was perfect for him. He's a very happy guy!

How can such a small pack carry so well?
2 years ago
This pack carries like a bigger, badder pack. I have carried a similar size bag from Gregory, the Targhee, for a few seasons and used it in summer, despite its obvious construction for winter. It carries things the way I would like but summer time objectives require different gear. I am able to carry camp and food for 3 days in this. Granted, much of my gear is for 40°F or warmer and very compact. For my first adventure, shortly after I purchased, I had to climb 3,000' starting at 7,000'ASL over 5.5 miles. The pack weighed in at 34 pounds with 3 liters of water and food. I'm 5'8" with 17" torso measurement. I have the pack adjusted for the Medium harness sizing. Steep hikes demonstrate just how comfortable a pack can be, at least to me. Despite sizable step-ups onto rocks on the trails, this pack remained comfortable. It carries well and left me quite surprised over the course of my climb to camp. The back panel remains pretty cool but the weather was also cool. I could see during hotter weather this causing some heat build up on the back panel. Load remains stable. Once the straps were all adjusted I didn't adjust during the entire trip. My trip out was much lighter going down the same trail. I never noticed the pack. It was more comfortable as it was lighter by about 3 pounds. Some reviews talked about the cross-torso strap moving on them, I did not experience this problem. In fact, I've found very little to complain about with this compact pack. It is a big daypack by definition. But if you pack right and have the gear, this can do for a couple nights. I'm only one trip in with it. I'm curious to learn how long it will last. NOTES: This particular trip I was able to substitute the tent and stove for amateur radio equipment which is much heavier given the amount of metal.

Great bag and I love the design

I am 5’10” with 38” waist. It fits me but if you are much smaller than I think the pack may big to big for you to tighten the adjustment straps. I bought this bag understanding it was designed for fuller body shapes and was okay with having to cinch all the straps way down. If you have a fuller shape and have been looking for a bag that will fit and be comfortable then this is your bag. Plenty of strap adjustment and hip belt room and bags that end up where they should be. If you want to see some vids other than the manufacturer’s site, search for “Miranda in the Wild” or “Unlikely Hikers”. They both have vids that show this bag in use on bodies with more curves than mine.

It fits!

Never realized how bad my old pack fit me until i tried this one on. I've always been a big guy started wearing a XXL shirt when I was 15 and still do at 40. wife needed a new pack and while i was at the store I tried on the only "plus size" pack on they had. I immediately went home and saw what Gregory had online. I guess I'm at the lower end of who this pack fits, but it fits. the waist pockets are accessible, I'm no where near the end of all the adjustment straps, and it is just comfortable. doesn't have all the tech of some of the other packs. Wife just got a Juno and the breathability is better, came with a bladder and clips and a cool sunglass keeper, but as a big guy I would trade all that for a pack that actually fits any day.

A light weight hauler - not worthy of "stout."

Photo shows seam failure with 30 days of trekking. Exact same on both sides. Luckily it was easily sewn up at a shoe repair shop. Design is ok, except for the top cover. It definitely needs a longer length or an extension. I swear by my large Gregory expedition pack. The stout pack is just an economy day pack.

Great to see a good pack for big hikers
2 years ago
It's nice to see a pack being made for bigger backpackers, whats not great is that only only get one choice in color, and it's a hideous in your face orange. I know it seems vein to complain about the color, but when you finally find a plus sized item made for the out door industry you hold on to it and you want to not hate it. A bright orange draws unwanted attention. If you are going to offer the only 45L bag made for plus sized people maybe don't make the only color option be so loud. It's just about the ugliest shade of orange, almost safety orange.

Great Ultralight pack

I've been using my Stout for almost a year, it's covered a little over 1600 miles, and been through sharp rocky canyons and wet Appalachian peaks. So far not a single snagged thread, no rips, no broken clips, and all zippers still running smooth. I'd have given a 10 and 5 stars except I'd prefer a zip away barrier between the bottom sleeping bag area and the rest of the pack, and a few more small interior pouches for organizing, but ounces equal pounds and this pack sheds the ounces. My only other issue is I'm getting older and with less mobile shoulders the exterior water bottle pouches are slightly far back making it difficult for my short arms to reach. But I'm built like a Gorilla but with shorter arms. So, if you have normal arms you should be fine.

The First Bag To Consider For A Larger Frame
2 years ago
Backpacks for larger individuals are difficult to come by, and many top companies have just recently started to target this audience. The bag is light weight, and very breathable. The longer waste straps are also a must. Great size, and ease access. I highly recommend this Gregory pack. This is also a great bag for both entry level day-packers, and experienced hikers on longer treks. Personally, I’ll be using it for a 500 mile pilgrimage (Camino de Santiago), and the training has been a breeze with this bag.

Great 1-2 day Overnighter

I am very satisfied with this pack. I’ve had mine for a few months and was able to test it out during some cold-weather backpacking trips. I am able to fit a sleeping system, tent, jet boil stove, extra socks, a sweater, a couple small freeze dried meals, and a 3L reservoir in it comfortably. I plan to buy a size up for longer trips, as there is not much room for additional clothing items beyond 1-2 nights. I’m super satisfied with the quality, the adjustability, and all the pockets/compartments.
