"Updating review already written" - Review of Arc'teryx Naos 85 Backpack - 5004-5370cu in

Alright, so after a full summer of hiking with this pack, i am going to update the review that i already posted. The one drawback to this pack is that the designers put a "waterproof" zipper on the side of the pack. You cannot really see this zipper in any of the views. It access the main storage section. This is a horrible design. I tested it out in my bathtub before i took it to some slot canyons in SoUT, and it leaked. I tried it out anyways in the canyons (double dry bagged) and it leaked again. I am not sure what they were thinking putting that zipper there, but the description that says "no the bag is waterproof" is not true. The smaller bags such as the naos 55 do not have this zipper, and i would def believe the waterproof rating on those bags. Other than this zipper, the bag is spectacular. For the bags size and what you can put in it, i dont think there is a finer bag on the market.
