Light duty and can't take a beating
By Chelsea Morgan
Ranked #342 - Winter Packs

At first I thought this pack was great; light, good hydration system, good pockets, good amount of space. But after a year it is destroyed. The cheapo zipper pullies have all ripped off (one on the first day of use) and there are now numerous holes in the light yet delicate fabric. Perhaps the owner should not take it rock climbing in the summer.....but I'm a bit disappointed in the durability after one year. Perhaps not a good value for the price.
