HIGH SPEED LOW DRAG!

The engineers who designed this pack deserve a raise! Hands down the most comfortable and secure pack I have ever owned. I bought the men’s Zulu 55 and it has never failed any test I have put it through, I can pack a comfortable week into it with plenty of room for food and my fly fishing gear! If you are looking for a tight to the body pack that ventilates well on the back to crush miles with, this is is the bag for you!

A good mid level pack

I have the 30 liter version for day hiking and really enjoy that one. Lots of pockets and a good price.
Dislikes
This is just a larger version but isn’t nearly as comfortable as some higher ended packs cough cough AG packs

The average pack - noting special. The Gregory service in US is null.

Looks nice. Mesh pockets are comfortable.
Dislikes
Suspension system is mediocre. Hip belt is rather stiff, digs in the lower back the way it even hurts. Gregory support is null. I have had the the plastic holder of the sternum strap broken the day the pack arrived. Tried to contact Gregory support 3 time without any response.

Great fitting backpack!
Likes
Hip belt very comfortable. U shaped zipper provides easy access to items.the torso adjustment allowed me to dial in the perfect fit. The stretchy side pockets provided easy storage for the water bottles. The stretch back pocket is great for storing a long sleeved fleece shirt and gloves. The shoulder straps have comfortable padding.
Dislikes
None so far.

Good pack for weekends or for longer lightweight trips

I have an older Osprey Exos 48L which is a great lightweight pack. However I wanted a new pack that would be more suitable for carrying all my gear plus my camera gear. The bottom entry is where I store my camera gear with a Tenba BYOB camera insert, so I can get quick access without digging through the whole pack, or opening the lid and draw cord on top. My travel tripod fits well in the side pocket and held in place with the compression straps. The suspension for the pack is great. My pack weight with my camera gear and tripod is usually around 25# and it carries well on my back. I have been able to fit a bear canister in the pack with all my gear as well. I like that the rain cover is included. Haven't needed to use it yet, but like that i don't have to purchase an additional one. The adjustable torso length was helpful, I had to tweak it just a bit for me to have a more comfortable fit. The Velcro holding it is pretty tough and hasn't slipped at all during use. This pack is a great pack and can carry everything for a weekend /short trip if you don't have a ton of bulk gear.
Dislikes
Mainly the weight of the pack. It's not as light as my Exos, but it's not so heavy as to be unbearable. If you are really concerned about weight, look at the Gregory Optic.

Nice pack but not for me
Likes
Adjustable torso, decent weight to volume ratio, holster-style water bottle pockets, inside-out compression strap routing, large hip belt pockets.
Dislikes
The mesh back suspension is not tight. Easily compressed and does not keep the load off your back and provide ventilation. I have the Zulu 40 and its mesh suspension is tight and provides more of a gap the more you load it.
