You did a great job describing the pros and cons of the features of each bag, which is very helpful for those of us in the market for new bags. Thank you so much!
Good Vid. I have been using GG for quite awhile now. I am going to try and get something different now. I have a few iterations of their stuff. As for your hip straps- the ones I had= totally worked. But as I use my pack for a city pack, I cut them off. I never use them and they take up space and add weight. Also, with how Yours is made, it just wouldn't lend itself to be able to install the better straps on yours and that thing they did put on= looks dysfunctional AF. As for the shoulder straps- I love them. I walk constantly with it on my back and though they might not be 'soft' they never hurt my shoulders and they are Totally Durable. It's usually the #1 thing that goes to s@#t on a Backpack first= the straps. One of the major reasons I won't buy another GG product though= the manufacturing is complete garbage. The straps might not wear out= but they don't stay attached to the BP either. Every One I've bought the straps start coming unstitched from the case. For a premium price= this shouldn't ever be a thing. As for C straps= # 2 reason I'm not buying another GG BP= they always become detached. My last 2 the straps have popped out of their anchor within the first week of use. I tried gluing them in, to no avail. Again, for the price this shouldn't even be a thing?! As for the compartments inside the bag- they could be much better thought out. There's not enough of them and too many long spaces that don't tier well. This is the #3 reason I won't get another one= ALL of the lining on the inside= never lasts. I have rips in pretty much all my different compartments at 1 seam or another, so things in my bag randomly migrate to other compartments, lmao. The reason I bought my first one was that I loved how it was slim and long- which is the most agronomical way on your back. No other BP is like that- they are almost all squares unless you are buying a legit Hiking BP. This is a company that could really grow it's customer base= if they could only manufacture the products with any standard of quality= which they do not. I see you BP isn't of the same standard as their other ones, which is weird, as it seems to fit square on your back, their other BP are not like that. I look at it this way, if I could just go get some whatever Jansport or Swiss Army, and it's about a third of the price- then that's worth it. My BP cost 115 bucks and distenigrated as soon as I started using it. BTW= I've owned 7 of them, 3 different models. Anywho, thanks for the vid.

Super informative with useful points, well done!!!
Thanks for watching Tony!
Great review. extremely useful, thx. greetings from Europe :).
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching 😀
That pack looks like it would make her fall backwards if filled w/ stuff.
They designed it well. When I went to Europe with it for a month I didn't have an issue with it falling over. Thanks for watching!
