Usage to-date: 100+ miles of 8-10 mile days on hikes rated Hard to Very Hard, in temps 20° to 60° F and conditions from Dry to Crampons Required. Typical loads #15-#25; Torso length ~18” & waist ~29”. Pros: “Active Spine” Comfort, Versatility, Ventilation, Rain Cover, 5-liter total water capacity The central value props for this pack are the variable capacity range and the active spine feature, in which the waist and shoulder harnesses are mounted on pivots, allowing lateral spine flexion with a minimum of resistance from the pack; this keeps your load continuously centered and well balanced on rough/scrambly terrain. Pads on the straps are light, but plenty comfortable and quite airy. The design also allows for quite a bit of air-flow underneath. Rain cover is generously sized to cover the full 35L. Considerations: Minimalist design; low on convenience features; NOT adjustable for torso length. I’m comfortable, but at the lower limit of the fit range, so this pack probably won’t fit petite women or taller men. So… One big bag, essentially, so you’ll have to rely on zip-locs or stuff sacks for internal organization if that’s high-priority; the one hip-belt pocket is a bit on the small side, but the phone-sized pockets on the shoulder straps are a nice offset to that. Hip-belt trekking pole storage is more accessible but less out-of-the-way than it is on either of my Ospreys (48 & 65 liters). I generally use trekking poles either all day long or not at all, so I have just strapped them out of the way on the back when not in use. I was a bit concerned about the lash-down system on the back, but it is high-strength, NON-stretch, rather than bungee, and helpful in overall compression; the cordage is surprisingly quick to show some wear, but easily replaced with some spare boot laces or accessory cord if need be.

I like almost everything about this bag. Its awesome the way it can go from 28 to 35. Carryon size when smaller. It carrys on your back nicely, very comfortable uphill, downhill and level. I thought the shoulder straps would be a little light on padding but no issues. Zipper is very convenient, seems sturdy. Water bottle holders are a great size and fairly easy to access while on the trail, same with waist pockets. The waterproof pouch is to small for S22 Ultra, bummer but nice addition. Reason for 4 (.5) stars,.... I wish the bungee cord system on the back, bottom and chest strap were beefier, seem flimsy and not meant for anything that would be heavier and test it's ability to hold things in place, I definitely like them just make them stronger please. It could also help in cinching the bag up some more. Overall definitely would recommend this bag.

I used this bag as cabin baggage on a plane and the size is perfect. I like that I can go through the zipper on the top to have a 2nd access to my belongings. I like the basket system or the straps which take the bag off our back and which is less hot when worn for a long time. Several pockets at the waist including a waterproof pocket. Side pockets for water bottles accessible when carried on our back. I also like the rain cover integrated under the bag. Ideal for traveling by plane and traveling without a suitcase. However, I have not tried it on a hike. For this purpose, I don't think the zipper concept would be ideal and I would like more compartments instead of just one.

I like it, but still room for improvement

This pack is about 95% of the way to being awesome. I like: - the backpack floats on your back beautifully - the belly zip (not sure what to call it) - the roll top is top notch üëç. I love being able to shrink down the pack for day trip where there is a base camp. - the backpack/shoulder straps are nice and wide and have convenient pockets on them. Things to improve: - small stowe pocket, could be slightly bigger The chest clip is a bungee which is okay but with heavier loads, it doesn't hold the straps on the chest all that well -exterior rope thingy could use an additional hook or two. I had to keep an eye on stuff in the "net / rope" because stuff fell out of it Summary I like the roll top and the fact it shrinks, that is the reason why I bought it and am happy I did so. Felt good and stable on my back. The primary thing I don't like is the bungee chest band, I wish it was more like the traditional style.

Intended Use: Frontcountry (music festivals and urban adventures with family) and backcountry (day hikes and overnight hut trips) use in the South (e.g., hot, humid, rainy). Needed something that had excellent back ventilation, variable load capacity and quality construction. Here are my initial impressions after using for 5 days in Disneyworld, which is arguably the best test for this pack's attributes: 5 days of 90 degree weather, 60 miles of walking, loads from 10-30 lbs, wearing average 10 hours/day Pros: -Very comfortable to wear with heavy/light loads. Hipbelt does it's job with heavy loads. Shoulder straps very comfortable. Bungie chest strap could provide more tension, but curved shoulder straps don't need much to be in correct position imo. -No back sweat! This was a huge plus. -Rolltop makes for super easy loading and middle zipper makes for easy access. Can pack main compartment so food/rain gear is at front of pack and less-used items stowed in bottom/towards back of pack. -Mesh pockets on shoulders ideal for storing sunglasses -Mesh pockets on pack held 2 Nalgenes easily and could be accessed and put back while walking (this was a great feature) -Pack fabric bomber--stood up to being dragged on concrete and on/off rides over and over again Cons: -Cords kind of annoying--especially if you are accessing middle zipper often. Excess cord also hard to store neatly when pack volume is low. -Some wear on mesh (small holes) after using metal Hydroflask and setting down on concrete (probably not designed for this).
