As an older hiker I'm always looking for ways to be more comfortable and lighten the load. We just finished the Jacinto hike Cactus to Clouds and this pack made my whole hike. The fast access to snacks and the features of this bag made my day.
Thanks for making a great pack.

Just picked up their new fast pack, needed some extra space for my sleeping gear and nutrition. The two flask pockets in the front is what overnight explorations needed so I can get to my electrolytes with ease. I’m currently Training for Arizona 300 and felt I needed some extra space and the pack actually feels comfortable with weight. Currently hitting it hard in Joshua tree and cross country travel through the park. So far love the pack only thing I would change is more zipper pockets in the front and a tad bigger. Planning this winter to put long desert miles back to back days prepping for this race In April. By then I can really see how this pack will hold up. So far amazing purchase.
Worth the $
Of course it's well made, but the fit just wasn't for me. The hip belt is more like an abdominal belt, rides very high. And the side water bottles aren't easily accessible while the pack is on because it sits so high. That's not what I was hoping for, for me. I did get the largest size, I'm 6'4. Might not be an issue for someone of a different height or with shorter arms.
Hey, Steve. Thank you for taking time to share your feedback. If you have concerns about the fit and user experience of your Aero 28, please don't hesitate to contact our Customer Support Team -- they'll be happy to assist you!
Just got back from doing a 40 mile overnighter in the Cascades with this pack. Pack was comfortable and carried well, even while jogging. Got a medium and it fit me perfectly (5'9" 140 lbs). The adjustable side straps let you dial the fit depending on your layers and speed (run vs hike). Materials and construction are top notch. My only gripe is the pole carrying system. The strap provided does little to nothing to help the poles in place and my poles even dropped out once while scrambling. As a result, I had to stow my poles in the side pocket. If they can dial a pole carrying system that works in this pack, it would be 5 out of 5.
