Gregory Nano 20 | REAL USER REVIEW
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 сер 2024
- I may have got this to use as a Diseny bag.... but there is on way I could have a pack for months and non use it! So I put the Gregory Nano 20 into rotation and tested it out as a dad bag and as a day pack. Lets see how it works out!

Protip: you can turn the hip belt into bottom compression straps. Just pull both sides of the hip straps across the bottom of the bag in a V shape, lead both buckles through the loop on the front bottom that's meant for a bike light, and buckle it. Then you get two straps on the bottom that you can use to mount a jacket or something, and you can tighten it up with the buckles.
It also works well to hold a broken dresser drawer closed in a hotel room!

Ive been to Disney several times for solo trips. I bring two backpacks with me. One is an Osprey 40L as a suitcase and a random backpack for the parks. I used a Mystery Ranch in and out 19 and it worked out nicely. Im also going this October and im using the Mystery Ranch Rip Ruck 15 as a park bag.
I wish I still had my In and Out 19. Amazing pack. But the alpha flex water bottle pocket and the odd shape would make me choose a differ t pack for Disney. I’m now looking at the nano 24
I ordered the Woodland Camo version based on your review, thanks! That Camo version looks pretty rad.
Awesome! I hope you enjoy that bag. It’s a great little pack.
Thanks for this and your other Nano video. Since they’re on sale and the make an extra large version, I ordered one for our upcoming trip to Yellowstone. Should male a great pack for some day hikes.
Yellowstone! That will be a great adventure. I haven’t been out west I’m over a decade. I didn’t do much hiking when I was there. Spent most of our time in Moab. But Yellowstone is amazing. Enjoy your trip!
stumbled on your reddit post asking for disney bag recommendations. What led you to ultimately pick the nano 24? We're going to the parks in September (family of 3 as well), so Im trying to decide on what to get, I found the nano 20 for $56. Dont see the nano24 for less than $80 right now.
i found the 20 to just be a little to small after testing it for a while. It fit everything I started with, but knowing I would become the pack mule throughout the day as we "collected" things.... I knew I needed more space. I didn't want to go too big, as I didn't want to allow myself to lug that much stuff around. I ultimately found the Nano 24 to be the perfect size and it checked all the boxes for what I wanted in a bag. And it certainly worked out great for me. I was able to over stuff it beyond capacity and still comfortable lug it around and use it as a carry on item on the return flight.
How is the back ventilation for this pack? I heard the inside of the pack gets sweaty because there's not much of a barrier where the foam's cut.
I mostly used this in cooler weather, but I do run hit. I didn’t have much issue with it. I felt that it had resent ventilation and the foam has cutouts to move air along on your back.
I hope they do reach out to you for reviews! I recently got the Rhune 22 in navy. It's absolutely gorgeous and not really covered anywhere that I found.
They did. They said have fun at Disney. No bags coming my way…☹️
@@jeffgrantMEDIA hahaha what?! Oh mannn, that blows, you'd do them justice with your reviews, it'd be good exposure. At least they didn't ghost you.
@@AMFisher2 I was happy to just get a reply. 80% of the time they never send you a message.
I recently got this bag. Seems great, but I wish the back panel was removable. I might have to slice the top and remove it.
I find the back panel to be pretty comfortable. You can just get a packable bag of you want it to floppy. I don’t think this pack would handle so well with it removed. I do wish the bottle pockets were the same as the front pocket. You would be able to fit large bottles in it.
Did you go to Disney yet? Looking at a pack too for Disney and when researching this pack came across this video. Don’t really plan on carrying a lot just a few snacks /first aid/meds, about two hydro flasks like you have, a light fleece, battery bank and 3-5 ponchos/rain jacket.
I haven’t gone yet. Not until October. But it was an excuse to get a new pack when I didn’t have any other packs coming in for review… haha. But I think the nano 20 will definitely be a great Disney pack.
Nice review. Hope they can get you some packs for more coverage of their products. And your in PA to boot.
I'd love to take a look at their 24l Nano version. I should hit them up again and see if they bite this time.
Are you in PA as well?
@@jeffgrantMEDIA South Central area, yeah. Gregory is basically out of colors but just got this in Navy at the cheaper price. Hoping it fits the fine line between my mystery ranch urban assualy 21L and the smaller 5.11 slings packs I got.
@@Liberty.Cant.Be.Canceled nice. I’m up in NEPA. I don’t have a UA, but I have a Galligator and a Catalyst 22. I would say size wise it’s similar to each of the MR bags. But it functions very differently that each MR bag b
Do you think this is a good backpack not only for hiking but also for travelling?
I do. I actually bought this to travel with. I have a dedicated hiking pack. But I had to test it as a daypack for my review.
do you think the bag is thin enough to be packed in a carry on backpack? i'm looking for a day bag for europe but wanted one with better straps and back support than those tiny packable bags and was hoping that this will fit the bill.
Probably. If I remember in the morning I’ll squish down my nano 24 and see how flat it gets. I don’t have then 20 any longer. But if I can pack a 24, the 20 will fit in a larger bag.
great review!
Thanks!
Amazing adventure
Thanks. It was a nice crisp day to be out in the woods to film the intro and B-Roll. Calm and quiet.... just the way I like it.
Does the water bladder pocket fit a 13 inch laptop?
That I can no longer answer as I sold this pack. I also don’t have a 13” laptop to test it. But the pocket was small. You can probably only fit a tablet in there.
hows ur height?
It varies wildly depending on my carry situation. But I never weigh it. If the bag is too full or too heavy, I’ll take things out. But this pack would probably handle up to 20lb fine (fully loaded with water). An average day pack should weigh 10% your body weight. So a good average is 15-20lb.
@@jeffgrantMEDIA oh nice, but i wonder hows look am i. when i carry this bag
so i asked ur height 😄
@@runner1037 my bad man. I was grilling in the cold. Glasses were a bit fogged up. I’m 5’9” 175lbs. Sorry about that.
@@jeffgrantMEDIA ur welcome jeff thanks a lot and appreciate ur comment, but 5'9'' is 5foot 9inch?
@@runner1037 yup. 5 foot 9 inches tall.
the stumbling is so distracting I had to stop watching, edit some, to not frustrate your viewers
I edited that way spastically to annoy you.
