Great service and great product This product is an outstanding design. Only quirks are the seemingly long strap tails but a place is provided to stow them, and the small opening to the top pocket. The size is ideal for day excursions and ample room for hydration bladder, raincoat, lunch, etc. I plan to use it for long fishing day trips and can stow an assembled fly rod in the stow-on-the-go feature while tying knots and leaders. Quality material and comfortable fit. Airscape back panel is rigid and works well but not as well as mesh panels for ventilation, but the trade-off of internal space vs ventilation space isn't worth the mesh in a lot of cases. I recommend this product to hikers and sportsmen for day activities.

Really nice! I bought one for my little sister when she went off to college, and when it showed up I had a hard time letting go of it. She loves it, so I got one for myself. I wanted something for her that would be great for a heavy load of books and laptop, but that would also be serious enough for a day or two of hard play in north Michigan in the winter. I think it's perfect for both, though it leans to the serious technical side. The quality, features, and fit adjustment are amazing! Plus, it's a really sweet looking pack!

Best Pack EVER!!! I took this pack all over the middle east (Israel, Jordan, Egypt). The back construction is unlike any other pack. Supple foam triangles with mesh suspended over. Lumbar curved for a feel unlike anything else. The pack is shaped so that it can fit through and into tight spaces as it is narrow yet long. It can haul an INCREDIBLE amount and is almost weightless when empty! It really is AMAZINGLY LIGHT. Add hydro pocket and a BUILT IN RAIN COVER, and you've got the best pack ever made! Oh yeah, Life Time Warranty too! Seriously the best pack ever. (Get the green one, it looks great too)
