At 5’10 215lbs I went with the medium and it fits great, packed at ~30lbs it’s very comfortable. The hip belt and shoulder straps are solid and nicely padded and the ventilation system allow good air movement. Some reviews say that the divided pockets would be better as one large pocket but I prefer the front and cap pockets divided. The ferrous orange color looks nice and the pack has lots of tie down points for gear carried outside the pack such as sleeping pads or trekking poles. Overall I’m really happy with the purchase and the price was great!
Dislikes
The water bottle pocket works great when removing the bottle but not so much for putting it back in. The bladder sleeve/daypack might grow on me over time but seems like a dedicated bladder sleeve would have been better. By far the biggest complaint I have with the pack is the size of the hip belt pockets which are to small for the items that I would generally like to carry in them however the hip belt does have a waterproof pocket….

I've owned several packs, and this is the best pack yet. Lots of pockets, super comfy. The suspension ensures plenty of air movement and provides several carrying options. People complain that it is so heavy. Balderdash! Unless you are counting grams, the couple extra pounds in this pack is soooo worth it for the features and comfort! Break your toothbrush in half, but take care of your back! I also love that it comes with a rain cover. I got the "ferrous orange" color and I love it.
Dislikes
The side mesh pocket is hard to use if you have your pack stuffed at all. And I wish it had a dedicated bladder retention system--the removable "day pack" is gimmicky. I will agree with other reviewers that the front hip pockets are just too small. Lastly the bottle holder is so snug on my nalgene that it doesn't allow me to nest my camp cup on the outside of the bottle. But even together, these issues aren't big enough issues to detract a star. I love this pack.

5'11/200lbs/20" torso/physically fit - Medium fits perfect. Loaded it down and took it on a 5 mile hike as soon as I got it. *Very well made *Very comfortable even when heavily loaded *Lots of pockets *Front access
Dislikes
*Color is very much a dark, rusty RED *Tiny hip pockets *Water bottle pocket is too short, too far back and not an improvement over a standard side pocket *Cap and front pockets would've been better as one large pocket each I got the 65 because I expected the exterior pockets would add as much additional space as I needed. They do add a lot of space, but the tall, skinny shape of the front pockets and overlapping design of the cap pockets severely limits what you can put in them. It is a very high quality, very comfortable hauler, but some of it's design elements just seem like solutions looking for problems. I like the pack, just not as much as I expected to, and eventually I'll find some useful purpose for that silly water bottle pocket, but I may end up swapping it for a 75.

I am a 68 year old male in good physical condition and I wore the pack for the first time on a 7 mile hike on a moderate trail in a Tennessee State Park with about 30lbs of gear. Very comfortable and performed well. The team at Enwild was extremely helpful and friendly. I highly recommend purchasing gear at Enwild, no matter what your choice is. Thanks Enwild staff. Special thanks to Morgan.

Great backpack. Everything about it screams attention to detail. Just wrapped up my first multi-day backpacking trip with it and it seems super durable. The rainproof cover is a perfect fit and works great. The mini-backpack inside is a great feature and is also very nice quality itself. The sleeping bag compartment at the base is useful. As I've gotten more familiar with using the pack and all its features, I've found it to be accessible and well-organized.

Great pack, lightweight, fits well - love it!
Likes
Sooo many pockets, so many connection points for additional gear, lots of tightening straps for pack adjustments, access openings at top, bottom and mid-pack to access contents. Hiked with a 25 pound pack for a 17mile day hike (5 hours and 2500' elevation change) for a trial run and hardly felt the weight and pack. Very comfortable waist and shoulder straps with so many adjustments for a perfect fit. Love it!
Dislikes
The ONLY reason for not giving this 5 stars - the two front pockets on the waist - one water proof, one not..... are too small for a standard size phone (flip phone only for those who know what those are....). used the water proof pocket for vehicle keys and a few other items and the net pocket for trash. If they are going to use these pockets as a selling, then make them usable! So all that said - go back to my "Likes" comments becacuse I would still buy this pack again!

Good Quality Bag
Likes
Excellent build quality, removable lumbar support (more comfortable to me without), numerous pockets, wide shoulder straps, interchangeable components
Dislikes
Padding seemed a little stiff (I only tested with 35 lbs so this might be better for heavier loads), small hip belt pockets, no flap for using bag without brain, sleeping bag compartment a little smaller than expected

Very quality pack!
Likes
Great attention to detail with quality material and zippers. Love the one-handed open/close ability of the cinch cord at the top opening of the pack. Comes with daypack and rain cover that some competitors left out. I was looking for a quality pack that had the zipper-front option and have been pleased!
Dislikes
Small hip belt pockets. It's a little heavy but for durable material with lots of pockets and zippers you have to compromise.

The right pack for me.

This is the first pack I've bought in 30 years and I am amazed at the technological changes. I researched similar packs and picked the Gregory because it seemed to have all of the bells and whistles that were important to me plus it is super comfortable which is priority #1.
