Great bag, durable, with all the pockets you'll need December 9, 2009

This is an outstanding bag for day-to-day commutes or a day hiking trip. The next larger size requires a titanium frame. The next smaller is too small for books and perhaps a laptop. There is none of necessary padding or straps needed for a laptop. What sold me on the bag when I picked it out in Cabelas was the number of pockets.
Here's the pros:
* 4 front compartments: a divided main, large one; one small one the size of a coat pocket and a larger, divided one in between;
* 2 huge cargo zippered side pockets; I keep spare glasses, a medical kit and pills and such in each of these;
* 2 side web pockets; I keep sugar, cool aid, sweet&low, sanitary wipes and glass cleaner wipes in these easy-grab pockets;
* 2 large hand straps for grabbing--- one on top (see picture) and one in front(shown in picture);
* Easy-use belt strap --- you'll find this useful if you have back problems because this back can carry close to 100 lbs.;
* Easy-reach tighten straps for the shoulder straps --- keep it loose, then pull; and,
* Several hooking points inside the large bag and the middle bag for tieing in things that could fall out.
Here's the negative points:
* Nylon inside the side panels (behind the cargo side pockets) is not very tough; I tore it after 6 months;
* The large pocket (main) has a weather protective strip protecting the zipper --- it snagged within a few days ---- I cut it off;and
* Reflectors on the pack would be useful for those who commute.

Perfect! December 24, 2009

Just finished a month long backpacking trip of Europe using this bag, and it worked wonderfully. Biggest benefits I found with it were the front load, simple compartments, adjustable/bendable internal frame, great hip support, and its ability to expand and collapse. I too used it as a carry-on. I had plenty of room left over, and the stuff I carried:
3 pants (trail, jeans, track), 4 shirts (2 long, 2 short), and 7 pairs socks/underwear.
2 books and travel guides
toiletries, food, and little things
Don't buy a massive backpack. This is perfect size, has room to spare, and it's very adjustable.
Very Nice July 29, 2009

I bought this bag for 1) Carrying all my rock climbing stuff and 2) A backpacking trip through Europe next year. For the first purpose, it works GREAT. I can carry my 60 meter rope, carabiners, slings, etc, etc, with room to spare. The weight is no problem, and distributed well so that my balance isn't thrown off. I can't say how well it holds up for traveling since I haven't used it for that yet, but I can't imagine there being any problems. Most people recommend about 3000 cubic inches for that purpose, so this exceeds that.
Also, another reviewer recommended this for bigger guys. I'm a small guy (5'9", 135lbs) and this pack fits me extremely well.

I've had the Kelty Redwing 3100 pack now for several years. Used it for thousands of miles motorcycling in summer heat, rain, and near freezing temps. I've taken 3 backpacking trips with it. It's also been a carry-all for days at the park, bicycling trips, gear for karate class, business travel, hauling books and equipment. Not uncommon for me to have 20-30 lbs of stuff in it. And it still looks like new. Fairly water resistant, roomy, well thought out design. Easy soap and water clean-up. I can't think of a single complaint. Nothing but praise for a highly durable pack that will easily outlast 10 of your garden variety "high school" back packs. I'm 5'9", 150 lbs, and it fits me great.

This is the 6th Kelty pack we have bought over the last 25 years. Family members are still using their Kelty packs and this one is for the newest member of our family. We have travelled around the world with these packs and they fit in the overhead bin of the airplane.
Also, Kelty stands by their products and recently repaired a pack my husband bought 25 years ago - no charge.
I recommend you buy a Kelty.Kelty Redwing 3100 Backpack
