My Dad has one (it's been all over the world...Seriously!) and he let me use it...Fell in love. It is light weight but super durable. A normal duffel is flimsy and makes it…

I've had mine for about 2 years and it has no sign of wear and tear even after extensive use. I got a large in the yellow and I love it. It's so easy to spot my bag anywhere,…

Yesterday, I packed almost all the gear I plan on bringing for a two day backpacking trip for 4 adults into this pack. That includes 1 sleeping bag, 3 sleeping pads, 1 pillow,…

I used TNF terra 60 before and this Altra 75 is more powerful to load almost all my gears and very comfortable to carry. This is definitely a top quality backpack. Thanks Moos…

I use my Altra 65 for extended backpacking trips on the AT. At the moment the longest trip I have taken it on was 4 days and 80 miles. Although this makes me by no means an ex…

I sold my Naos 55 to a friend in order to get this bag. I was hesitant at first but now realize it was the best decision I have made in terms of gear. The suspension is like t…

What can I say, I love this backpack. It's super comfortable, the hip belt has a disc that pivots to help balance the load which really works out great. It holds a lot of gear…

I bought this back before heading off on a 3 month road trip through the western USA, with a bunch of multi-day hikes planned. The pivoting waist belt works like a charm (but…

I love this pack, it has so much room for everything you could possibly carry. The sleeping bag compartment at the bottom the, the top with doubles for a small pack is awesome…

This is definitely more streamlined than your typical 80L pack. You won't find tons of unnecessary outer pockets and random loops, which keeps everything simple. Very comforta…

I bought this tent becouse it weighs less than almost any 1 person tent and is almost big enough for 2 people. You would have to like to cuddle or be small to fit 2 in comfort…

Easy to pitch and pack, great in wind, (even if you're an idiot and don't plan for 40mph wind gusts to the side) and surprisingly durable. Once you figure out how to stake it…

I absolutely love these axes! I have nothing but good things to say about them. I climb a lot of ice, and own nomics, fusions and techs, and 9 out of 10 times, I grab these…

I did really well on both ice and mixed routes last season. However, I would have purchased the nomics if they were in stock. Great second pick.…

Fell in love with this backpack/cabin bag when I first saw it in an outdoor shop in Hungary. The perfect combination of the two worlds, flying and backpacking. Would love to g…

Excellent 2 man tent, unless you are bringing two midgets with you I don't know how in the hell a third person would fit (in there defense they are just following industry sta…

This tent sets up in record time with complete ease. Spent two weeks camping in Yellowstone National Park with my boyfriend. There was no issues with condensation, especiall…

I've really really liked using this pack. Very ligtweight and versitile. Love the compression straps. Seem a little small but we will see how they hold up. I love the air vent…

First off, I used this pack, a lot. Save some staining on the lower part of the exterior (the front stretch woven pocket, which I absolutely loved was especially susceptible t…

I figured Id need two or three of these, but to be honest I haven't placed it once. I think I should have started with 1 and then worked my way down.…

This stuff is bomber. They're ridiculously small, but their holding power and versatility belie their size. I did a hanging belay from a tiny crack on steep slab using 3 of th…

The suspension system everyone seems to mention is outstanding as well as the fact that it actually isn't that awkward to load from the top even though it is an exceptionally…

I love this pack, I bought it to upgrade from my external frame, and this does the job. It is super light, and the support system is unbeatable. the whole pack moves with you,…

Great resistant bag with good ergonomic. The straps can fall of though - lost it in translation. Cons weight and price. Pro materials (as allways with arcteryx), colours and "…

I've been wearing Arcteryx jackets for a while now and even have a pair of their pants, so I figured why not outfit my hiking gear collection with an Arcteryx backpack? I'm gl…
