Go to pack for short hikes
Comfortable, and does the job so well on short days.

Love everything about this vest/bag
Use this for short or long days on the trail. It’s comfy, sits perfectly, has amazing pockets and storage capability, fits my iPhone in the front, and seems durable. I’m 5’4 -115 pounds and fit the small. It’s perfect.

Excellent Pack
This pack is the perfect size for day hikes. I also got the carbon poles that fit it perfectly. It fits like a vest which makes it perfect for running. Love the little pockets in the front for water and phone!

Fit issues
I wanted this pack to work out so badly. It is exactly what I was looking for, to use for day hikes while backpacking. It looks great and is so functional! But I feel it's not made for any woman with more than a B cup. I tried multiple ways but could not get it to work. It also gapped at the shoulders in a weird way. Very uncomfortable. I put about 6 pounds worth of gear into it while trying it on because that's about what I would be carrying, to see if that helped with the fit, but it didn't. I'm a size 12 and ordered the large, after measuring according to the size chart.

Great Pack!
Wore this pacing for the Bigfoot 200 and it easily fit all the required gear plus everything I needed.
