Granite Gear Blaze 60L Backpack

Very good quality and larger rucksack than the 60L would suggest compared with others. Very comfortable and can carry heavy loads, I use it for long distance hiking trips and winter wild camping trips because it fits all gear in well. Would buy again.

Great one

I've used it with about 20 kg load and it was still really comfortable. + Great quality and ergonomics. - The back material is causing skin to brush on the lower back, when it is hot and you are sweating.

Good pack. Weighs 1.4kg for the Short version. The straps can adjust. The belt is quite comfortable but can dig in after a few days if you carry more than 15kg so wear something padded. Too many straps, wish they replace it with bungey cords instead - will be a problem when checking this in at the airport. The design is a bit ugly as it looks like a strangled beetle but very practical features. Wouldn't trust it to be completely waterproof so am buying a rain cover - it didn't come with one. It's not my perfect pack but for a framed pack, it's a workhorse and I'm confident it can hold 18kg but not for long 4+ multiday without it hurting your lower lumbar at the back.

Great pack. Very comfortable with heavy loads. Synches down when not fully loaded. Great feature set with solid build and reliable components. I sold it due to needing a lighter pack and regret not having it for those 'Big Trips'.
