Speeed’s take
The single biggest step-change across a hundred years of gear. Only about 10lb lighter than the Duluth pack, but the external frame moves the load onto your hips and the difference is not subtle. Scored 6/10 against the Duluth's 2.
“Okay, the game has changed. I don't think they're that much lighter — I think they're only a few pounds lighter, but it feels like it's half the weight.”
