Talon 22 Mens Hiking Backpack, Eclipse Grey, Large/X-Large

Loved this backpack through vacation, hiking, and adventures.

I really like that it holds the hydration bag away from my back, but is balanced. Very lightweight and comfy.

Overall, the pack is very well built and comfortable to use. I like the fact that you can stow and unstow your trekking poles without having to take off the pack itself. The big negative, unfortunately, is that inserting a full water bladder is kind of a fight. The opening is right behind the adjustment panel for the shoulder straps and is very narrow. You cant really get your hand / arm in there along with a full bladder in order to seat it correctly. You have to rely on gravity and some shaking. I wouldnt want to try and refill it while on the trail.

Great fit molds to the back comfortable. Dislike would like side pockets to be more forward little hard to reach small pocket on the shoulder strap is useless to small also all the straps are thin and small hope they hold up.

I bought this backpack to hike Half Dome. Great investment. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Very good build quality but central zip opens so wide, so it is impossible to access while back pad weared. E.g. my wife or son can’t put/pick anything from the main compartment when backpack is on me, without having everything inside fell to the ground.

Very comfortable and versatile. Love it

Great looking backpack. I did return it because it was smaller than I was looking for.

Im 6 and 280lbs and this fits me really well. Adjustments are excellent. Wore this to Washington DC a few weeks ago.

Lightweight yet sturdy.
