Title says it all. Three pounds and 50 liters of well constructed pack for under $100. Can’t beat that.
This pack is so light but has so much room! I like how everything has its specific place (and labeled at that).
My husband and I used these backpacks on a recent 5-day trek. We are both around 5'9 and had the adjustable straps down to the lowest setting. The packs themselves are very lightweight and comfortable to wear for an extended period of time. My favorite feature was the zippered components on the waist belt. I was able to fit my phone/gopro on one side and snacks in the other. The deep side pockets ensured that my water bottle didn't fall out on the trail. The internal mesh compartments helped keep everything in order and the full open zipper made locating things in the pack simple. The integrated rain cover was helpful when it started to rain. I liked having the front pocket to store our solar panel when it started to rain and the bungee cord on the outside kept it in place during the hike. A great, lightweight backpack!
The back pack is solid. It has labeled packing areas for ease of packing your pack.
Loads out and carries well. The model I tested was one of the earlier models, but it was great for me.
