I got my pack in today and the first thing I did was inspect it from top to bottom. Everything seems to be well made, well stiched, and very durable. It has alot of pockets, extra tie downs for add on’s, and the waist/shoulder straps seem to be well padded.
It did not specify in the description, but it does have a place to put a water bladder with an exit hole for the tube.
As in other reviews one complaint was stiff zippers, but I found the zippers to open easily, they are large zippers with cord attached, the only difficulty I had was with the zipper on the bottom section and it wasn’t the zipper that caused the problem, but the flap that covered it, however I found this to be a problem on all of the packs I have looked at.
I looked at alot of packs at many different stores. Prior to finding this pack, I was about to spend $180 for one the same size, it did carry a life time warranty, however no more than I paid for this pack, I can afford to replace it if it gets damaged beyond repair.
I originally gave this pack a good review, however I used my pack for the first time this past weekend and the quality of this pack is horrible…on the very first day of the hike a zipper broke, and the belt fastener of the waist band broke. On the second day i was securing my sleeping bag and the strap broke, so i had to finish my hike without a waist strap and i had to tie my sleeping bag onto my pack. I am currently trying to find out how to contact the company so i can see about getting my money back.

There are a lot of better packs on the market and if you’re going on an extended hike, you might want to purchase something more expensive. However, for a short hike, and for the money, this is an excellent pack. As another reviewer mentioned, the zippers are surprisingly stiff, but I haven’t found that to be a problem, just an annoyance. The design is a little lacking in how the weight is distributed across the shoulders and back, which means that you need to be a little more careful in the way you pack (heaviest items on bottom), but my pack weighs 55 lbs, and I can carry it fine. Also, the internal frame is covered with a poorly designed vinyl flap inside the main storage compartment. As I use the pack I often accidentally stuff items inside the frame pocket by mistake. It’s not a big deal, because the items aren’t irretrievable, it just means that sometimes I wonder where something went, only to discover that it’s inside the frame pocket. But for this price … I honestly don’t care. This isn’t the best, but when considering the price and product, and comparing those factors to other packs, I can say that I’m honestly very happy with my purchase. I’m using one as a preparedness bug-out-bag, and I think this is a great value.

Worth more than I paid, (don’t tell the manufacturer) – I am a big guy at 6″1″ 250lbs. This pack adjusted to fit me just right. The straps are all double stitched, the fabric is of a good quality, and all potential weak points are reinforced. I didn’t expect much in the way of quality or features based on its price, but once it arrived I was very impressed. So much so that I called a buddy of mine who is also a Scout leader and he purchased one that day. We both used them last weekend. My buddy is approximately 5′ 10″ 180 lbs and the pack adjusted to fit him just fine. Once adjusted properly, you hardly notice the 40-50lbs on your back that is because it transfers the weight to your hips. This is a perfect pack for all normal Scout outings. I cannot tell the difference between this and a $150+ pack that you can buy at REI. Maybe it weights ½ lb more? The only drawback I can see is that it does not have a built in rain cover. But for the price and weight I will carry a tarp that I can serve a dual purpose and can be placed under my tent.

I received this bag two days ago. The primary purchase reason was for carrying as much of my family’s gear during an upcoming holiday trip. I am 6′5′ and over 300lbs, and this backpack looks like a perfect fit as I have already packed it to the hilt as a test and it held a TON. I look forward to testing it for real in the near future. Great heft to this bag for the price.

The back pack was a gift for my husband (a hiker). He LOVED it and was amazed at all the organized storage it had. He was very pleased!
