Largely because one friend was proposing to another on this trip, and I’d been tasked with carrying my drone, a DSLR camera, and several small bottles of champagne on top of my own gear, beer, food, and personal items. Breathable Shoulder Harness - Constructed from Lifespan foam to provide a generations worth of comfort, the harness are perforated to maximize airflow and comfort on the trail. Hydration sleeve with SpeedClip hydration hanger compatible with Gregory's 3D Hydro reservoir (reservoir not included) Hydration sleeve with SpeedClip hydration hanger compatible with Gregory’s 3D Hydro reservoirs (reservoir not included).Constructed from Lifespan foam to provide a generations worth of comfort, the shoulder harnesses are perforated to maximize airflow and comfort on the trail. Hoping for a blue sky all the time during hiking is not a good idea because who knows when the lovely sky shower you with his love.

It offers exceptional comfort on the trail and is constructed from durable high-end materials – plus it has heaps of extra features that we love. It’s designed specifically for men, but don’t worry ladies, there’s a female equivalent available (the Jade 38). The whole hip belt looks totally different now. This they call the Free Float system but this term is used for the complete suspension here. The Free Float flex panels allow the hip belt to pivot and flex with the movements of your body, hence the name. So the belt wraps smoothly and comfortably around the body. This is a big change when you compare with the massive system in the previous model. The Zulu’s sternum strap not only has a hydration clip to hold your water tube in place on the shoulder strap, but it has an in-built safety whistle too – neat huh? Sunglasses HolderOverall, we think this makes for a pretty sturdy main body. And the frame won’t let you down either, as it’s made of corrosion-resistant alloy steel, super-strong fiberglass, and a very strong plastic called HDPE. Water-Resistance hipbelt design conforms to the shape of your body, seamlessly providing the padding and support needed to carry heavy loads.

There are also attachment loops on the bottom of the bag paired with cords higher up that are perfect for strapping ice axes or trekking poles. Sternum StrapThere are two of these super handy spaces that allow you to ‘pass’ objects through them. They’re great for long think objects like tent poles as they can be held firmly in place with the compression straps. Attachment Loops Finally, there’s also a spot on the shoulder strap where you can safely store your sunglasses while keeping them close for times of need.
