As advertised
I purchased the Southwest 4400 as an ultralight upgrade for my trusty Gregory pack. The SW 4400 is extremely light, well built, and comfortable enough given its stripped down nature. If you’re hauling a bunch of gear and weight over long distance you’ll want a more comfortable pack and personally would go back and use my Gregory for that purpose with more comfort at the cost of weight. But if you’re looking, as I was, for a high volume ultralight bag that’s waterproof and nearly indestructible, look no further. Only wishlist item would be for the SW to have the same daisy chain setup as the porter bags. Would be a nice feature with minimal weight penalty.
