User Reviews

rated 4 of 5 stars Men's Speed Pack
Reviewed by Jeff W, Mar 24, 2006

"Very comfortable and light, first impression, seems flimsey but after using on a 2-day/night hike to 10,000 ft. proved rugged and reliable. Although it's called a "race pack I'll only use it for regular old backpacking. 3 liter hyd. system included. The inside stayed dry after an hour long T-storm.

I'm impressed, I'll recommend it to my friends."
