Excellent review, encouraged me to go buy the pack from a local retailer.

I’ve used it for a while now and fully agree with the praise on the review. At first I was quite sceptical of the very simple design, but in daily use it’s much more functional than the more complex designs. I’ve had some Samsonite, Jansport etc. packs with lots and lots of small pouches and places to hide stuff and often ended up having to go through them all to find something. Plus the small containers weren’t that well made, so they eventually ripped.

There is one downside, however – the lack of compression straps around the pack. As the main compartment is fairly large, it ends up being a bit baggy on the days I don’t carry anything in it. It would also help preventing stuff from piling on the bottom of the main container, as I could strap the pack tight. This is a minor issue but worth mentioning, as it might be an issue for some people.

The zipper pulls annoyed me too, so I put some cord on them (not cutting them off like Greg W).

All in all, I fully recommend the pack.

Great review. Can you please tell me which color pack you purchased? The colors on TT’s website are a bit tough to match to the color in the photos of your bag, and I can’t tell if you are showing the ACU, Ranger Green or Tan. Many thanks,
Ike

The noise of the zipper pulls does not bother me. I did not like the straps it came so I called them and for some extra cash they put their “Super Straps” which have thicker padding, more adjustments and a sternum strap. A great company and an even better pack. I got it the ACU pattern and no one else has one even close to it.

I recently purchased one of these packs and noticed, as did the reviewer, the noise of the zipper pulls.

A few minutes with some diagonal cutters and about 5 feet of black paracord fixed the problem nicely, as I replaced all of the zipper pulls with cord, a much more attractive and permanent fix than a duct tape wrap.
