Naturehike 65L Internal Frame Hiking Backpack for Outdoor Camping Travel Backpacking, Ultralight Backpack for Adults

Find a pack that does what this one does for double the price let alone at the price of this. Plenty big enough for a week but rolls down for smaller carries. I have had this a year and have had minimal complaints. Mine carries well on my normal 5'9" body. The side pockets can be a bit tough to reach to put a bottle back into, but they all are.

So I just got this bag this morning and already I'm pretty impressed. I got this to replace my Gregory pack, which on the site claimed to be 3.8lbs but is actually 5.6lbs. It says too much extra weight for me. I was nervous because I'd heard some negative reviews on YouTube but decided to take a risk. The pack initially seems much much smaller than my Gregory, which worried me, but I found all my stuff fit inside and looked much more compact than my Gregory pack, which makes me think there was a ton of wasted space in my Gregory. The next thing I noticed was how lightweight it was! I could pick up the whole thing with one hand! It was several pounds lighter than my Gregory.with the same stuff in it. Overall it seems to fit OK despite the fact that I'm plus size.Cons:*the shoulder straps are a little stiff. But I'm hoping they will relax a bit after using it a while.*the sternum strap isn't able to go any higher, but it feels pretty comfortable where it is.*no place to hang a water bladder, but there is a hole for a tube to go thru.*not for all shapes and sizes. But it fits me OK and the light weight aspect is definitely worth it.*there are no pockets at all inside, just like most ultralight packs.Pros:*the cost is fantastic!*it seems very sturdy and durable*is very light*the water bottle holder on the sleeve can't hold a giant water bottle, but it does fit the smaller bottles you buy in the giant 24 packs at the store. Or a cell phone. It's pretty convenient.*doesn't have extra weight with extra bells and whistles, to me that's a plus!*the front mesh pocket is huge!*it folds down if you don't need the whole 60L. So could be easily used as a day pack.I will update once I've used it on trail!

I saw good reviews of the backpack and it was made well and fit all of my gear, however my torso was too short (17.5) to allow this pack to fit properly. I ended up getting a Granite Gear Blaze 60, which is also quite light and has adjustable straps.

I read all the negative stuff online, and thought I’d give this pack a try anyway, I’m 6’2” 190 lbs with wider shoulders, 45” chest 34” waist, my torso fits the lower back dimensions to the shoulder so the pack including the frame are pretty spot on. It might not fit other body shapes and types and is NOT adjustable. I also overload and abuse my packs by using them as equipment haul bags to get gear up cliffs etc. again so far it’s holding out OK, but pad it from scrap items, and avoid dragging it across sharp edges and objects. The chest strap is a bit short so it does tend to squish my chest, I added an extension. Haven’t used it for super wet and winter trip yet. As I wrote above if this pack fits you, you’ll be like me and like it, but if it doesn’t there is no way to really adjust it. .

First impressions are very good. Bag holds a lot for its size. Outside mesh is great for a "stash spot" for the things you might take on/off like rain jacket if it's on and off. Or things you want easy access to throughout the day. I am probably testing its limit, but that mesh holds a LOT. The inside is one large area, so plan your packing strategically. Very comfortable, I've only hiked about 10 miles with it, but had it loaded way up and clocking in around 32lbs, not the bag's fault - I overpacked. I mention it only to say even at that weight, it wore well. Hip belt pockets are a nice feature and I really like the side pockets for water bottles. My chief concern is durability. It comes with these cool little "straps" that enable you affix something like a chair, a small tent, etc. rolled and on the top outside of the bag. The straps are like paracord and have a pull loop to cinch it tight once you clip the straps. It works very well, but on my third time using it the "loop" pulled apart. I "fixed it" by tying the now-loose end into a loop with a bowline. It's suitable but I would actually suggest the maker do the same (use a bowline) and THEN seal that with the "heat shrink" that's used to make it look nice. It is still 100% functional and I think my repair is actually more durable than the original manufacturing but it's made me nervous about the bag and what other "little things" might start to fray with limited use.I am happy for the size and weight at this price point. It's about 4lbs lighter as a bag than my prior 65L pack and holds every single piece of gear that was in my 65L pack.I'm not an ultralight hiker or a long haul hiker, but I wanted something that would enable me to "gut out" a 5-10 day distance hike someday while lugging along some creature comforts like a larger tent and a camp chair. This thing hits that mark and that means it'll also be great if/when I start to really shave out the big ounces.
