Kelty Redwing Backpack - 2650-3100 cu in - 2006 BCS

I have the 3100. Just bought it for an 8 day trip to ireland. Wanted to pack light so as to not have to check any bags. Had no problem carrying this on even when almost full. Even on the smaller flight to cork, (ryanair is pretty strict on size limits). Great pack, great trip.

Used it for multiple day trips and a 2-day hut-to-hut, design is simple and functional. Comfortable even under a significant load, plenty of tie-down points for strapping things on. I've actually strapped my skimboard to the back of this pack so that I could take it on a bike trip to a beach. I honestly thought it was a crazy idea when I started, but it worked out perfectly.

I use this bag for everything whether its biking, hiking, camping, mountain climbing or simply walking around town. If you plan on venturing out for a couple days or more, this is a great pack to have. There is enough room inside to fit pretty much anything you want to hall. Plenty of comfort in the straps, if fitted correctly to you, this bag will not bounce around or sway no matter what you do in it. This bag hasn't let me down yet, and wont ever. I love this pack so much, i went and bought my girlfriend the female version of the Redwing. She took hers to Australia and told me it was the best pack she has ever used. I Highly recommend this pack, A+

This pack is huge. It is well constructed. The mesh pockets on the sides are secured on the top with elastic but still easily accessible. The tons of loops allow you to clip on more stuff. It is very comfortable even with 50lbs loaded.

I loved the size of the 2650, but it just didn't fit my tall frame comfortably. Switched to the 3100 and it fit my frame very well. But if you truly filled it to capacity, it didn't ride too well. If you really need this much space, I would recommend going with something else.

I recently took this pack with me to the Wichita Mountains in Southwest Oklahoma. The pack performed flawlessly on a 10 mile hike through all types of landscapes, anywhere from scrambling up granite to walking through prairies. Carrying about about 15 pounds on my back for 4 hours was a breeze, and I did not experience any discomfort at all. The hip belt provides ample support, and the compression straps virtually eliminated any load shifting. I had more than enough room for all of my gear that I took with me, including about 4 liters of water, fleece, rain jacket, and food. I would highly recommend this pack to anybody looking for a very versatile daypack.

I first brought the Kelty 2650's Big Brother the 3100 and loved it. I used it extensively for skiing and with its removable waistband, for lazy hiking. I had to have the 2650 for those smaller trips and I have not been disappointed. The outside pockets are what I really like for quick access riding chair lifts and could not find another pack with those features.
Get either of these packs -they're fantastic.

I bought this pack to use for long weekend trips. It is perfect and accommodated all of my gear/clothes/etc. I recently took it on a week long trip with my family and it worked great. There is space for a weeks worth of clothes plus toiletries etc. plus it's super easy to stay organized with all the pockets. I also really love the orange color and it stands out when you claim you baggage at the airport!

I have purchased Kelty Redwings through all of Kelty's iterations of design change. So, after flat wearing out several over the past twenty years, using them for work and play, I can't praise Kelty enough for developing a comfortable, versatile, practical, and stout pack. Plenty of room allows you to stuff more than enough gear. Mine has successfully carried 40 pounds of archeological survey equipment, food, water, foul weather clothing, etc. for hundreds of miles in the Chihuahuan desert. At the end of the day, my legs are tired but the pack rode all day like it was part of my body. Great pack - highly recommend it.

This is my first real backpack other than what we all used for college/high school. I live and use it in Manhattan, well, use it when I travel out of Manhattan on the weekends, and it's as comfortable in the crowded streets and transit hubs, as it is when I get up to the Adirondack mountains. I'm looking forward to using it this summer in Utah. It seems comfortable for a guy about my build; 5'11" and 175lbs. I think anyone a lot bigger or a lot smaller than me, weight or height would not want it.

superfast delivery and excellent service from this site.
The Kelty 3100 is an extremely well made backpack at a reasonable cost. I am 6'1'' and the 3100 fits my back very comfortably. I was able to pack 2 days worth of fall outerwear and still have room to spare. The zippers are rugged and movement is smooth. The pockets provide room to store small items. Overall I am very satisfied with the Kelty 3100
