Granite Gear Blaze 60L Backpack

Very good quality and larger rucksack than the 60L would suggest compared with others. Very comfortable and can carry heavy loads, I use it for long distance hiking trips and winter wild camping trips because it fits all gear in well. Would buy again.

I've used it with about 20 kg load and it was still really comfortable. + Great quality and ergonomics. - The back material is causing skin to brush on the lower back, when it is hot and you are sweating.

I've been using this backpack for over 4 months now as a training pack. I am now up to 45 lb of sand/ gym weights in the pack and it hauls that large amount of weight very comfortably. I hike up a 1.5 mile steep incline in combat boots to a peak and then back down 3-4 times/ week. I am very impressed with its weight carrying capabilities and in my opinion a much better purchase rather than buying a very expensive weighted vest. For hiking, this would be an awesome backpack and I plan to order a separate one just for that purpose. For those wondering, the waist pockets are large enough to fit my large Samsung phone just fine.

This is a great affordable pack. It’s adjustable up and down with ease. Very comfortable. Water bladder pocket is tight! Very versatile!!

Great one

This backpack is lightweight and comfortable. I used it for a trip in the Dolomites. It is flat enough I was also able to compact it in my suitcase for my overall trip to Europe and only use it while hiking/backing which would not be possible with my Osprey Atmos 65 bag. The price was very reasonable as well. This bag has less compartments than the Osprey but is lighter and very useable. I see why gear labs recommended it. The price was also reasonable. I am recommending this bag to my friends.
