Calling the Gregory Women's Jade 28 Backpack a daypack is an understatement; this all-season trekker handles summer ridge runs and winter ice climbs with ease. Its Crossflo DTS suspension system features a wired X-frame that stretches trampoline-like mesh tight, and there's an HDPE framesheet with an anti-barreling stay for sturdy support. Cushy, ventilated EVA covers the shoulder straps and waistbelt for extra comfort.
The Jade is a traditional top-loader, upgraded with a larger zippered opening for better access to gear. There's an internal sleeve and tube port for hydration reservoirs, as well as an external pocket with a removable rain cover inside. The backpack's bottom loops attach trekking poles or ice axes, and Gregory added dual stretch side pockets for water bottles, dual waistbelt pockets for lip balm and energy gels, and security pockets both inside and out for electronics and valuables.

I got this backpacking mainly for climbing trips, but I also use it a lot in the city. It's a fine pack and does everything I need it to, but it definitely has some features that bug me. I think the worst part is that the frame squeaks while I walk which can really take the charm out of the peace and quiet of being in the woods. In general, I think suspended frames just aren't for me. The frame can also prevent it from packing efficiently, especially if you're packing anything with a more rigid structure because the back of the frame arches pretty intensely - this is especially annoying if you want to put in anything flat like a laptop or cutting board, I know that's not what this pack is designed for, but it's nice to be able to do sometimes. And then my last complaint is just that the bladder holding sack on the inside really only works with Gregory bladders which is a bummer if you have anything else. Overall it's a good, functional pack, just trying a little too hard to be fancy which ends up hurting it in the long run.
