Why We Like The Gregory Jade 53L Backpack

What this pack gives up in space, it returns in speed, thanks to lightweight construction and ventilated fatigue-fighting FreeFloat Suspension.

Needs work
Overall, the Gregory Jade is a durable pack. But, after hiking the 350-mile Pinhoti Trail, I'm going to look for a lighter pack. A couple of days before I left, the grap strap broke and I had to take it to a shoe repair shop to get it sewn back on. Then, while I was on trail, the chest strap broke off of the sliding ridge and I had to use paracord to tie it to the shoulder strap. And, even after 4 weeks of hiking, my back and shoulders were sore from the 25-ish pound pack weight. It could also benefit from larger hip belt pockets and a much larger back pocket.

Love this pack!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had the same pack for over 20 years, so when I slipped this new beaut on I felt a bit like cheating, but those feelings quickly went away. It’s super comfortable (fits my body well), I liked the layout and it was a perfect size for a one-night adventure (I got the 53). The second time I used it I lent it to a friend with a different body type and she loved it as well. Another great pack from Gregory!

Great pack!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very happy with this pack. I love that it zips around so that I don't have to remove everything from my the bag to get the stuff on the bottom. I also really like the bottom zipper as an extra compartment. In my old bag, I had to dangle everything on the outside off of carabiners, so this is nice. It is also very comfortable to wear and adjusts easily. All in all, this is an awesome backpack!

Great Backpack!
I bought this backpack at the end of my hiking season but it's so great. It took me a while to choose the size but the website gave me all the proper information to make the decision and the backpacks fits perfectly now! I am super happy with it.

Jade always wins.
Great physical design, and great usability in all sizes. Love the new orange and Gregory's exploration of color. I've had 28L and this is a good size upgrade for people who need to pack more for anything from a 1-day backpacking trip, general travel, or car camping. Took it across a lake to canoe camp and the rain cover helped keep things dry. It's a great product for just about anyone who needs a backpack of this size.
