Love this pack!
The Gregory Maven 45 Pack is one of my favorites. I love it because it is big enough to pack for an overnight backpacking trip, but also small enough for a day hike if I wanted. I try not to pack a ton when doing an overnight, so this pack is just the right size. I love the waistband on this pack as well. Very comfortable, and sits just right. It is also lightweight, so doesn't dig in the shoulders. Also, love the colors! Another thing I love about the Maven is the built in frame- it is very breathable and comfortable. I sweat a lot, and the frame definitely helps to keep the backside of my sh...

Great backpack
This is a very comfortable backpack. It fits my back very well and is one of my favorite backpacks.
Would recommend: Yes
light packback is so good
Gregory is more than 1 kg lighter than Deuter which made for quite a difference. When you have the two packs next to each other, you can see right away where it comes from. Deuter is made of thick, durable fabric that will serve me for ages. Gregory’s walls are made of a much thinner and delicate-looking material.
I am not easy on my packs – I throw them on the ground, I sit on them, lean on, and so on. I don’t fuss too much, and I need them to survive such treatment.
The first test for the backpack was one weeks – I was able to pack three weeks worth of clothes, gear, and food into it! It got me through some 300 km and some crazy weather.

What a great, vibrant color!
Way more options and lash points than a person could hope for. Soooo super sharp as a color tone for someone, a woman, who enjoys hot pink (which this is NOT... but of a tone that works quite well!) This pack is a perfect size for the 5'1" user. The right amount of room for real gear. And adjustable to a perfect degree. It is very light in weight but inspection reveals some well built strengths to it. The only real flaw I will lodge against it is the completely off tone of the blue rain cover that is provided with it. What the heck?! Oh, well... but not critical of course because it is a legit backpacker's pack.
Pros:
- Well built. Light in weight. A sharp colored alternative to the other fare out there.
Cons:
- Gregory ought not to be shy to OWN the color scheme to the very end. 'Can' the gray straps and blue accents.
Would recommend: Yes

Maven 45 lacks key features of 55L & 65L models
I was thrilled to find a pack that had (I thought) the combination of size and features I wanted for winter hikes/snowshoes or quick summer overnights. The Maven 45 seemed to fit the bill, but the specs are not correct as multiple features are not available in the smaller 2 sizes. Specifically:
-the hydration sleeve is not removable (no Sidekick dapack)
-the hipbelt pocket position is not adjustable
-no silicon gription on the lumbar pad
-no quick bottle access from the side pockets
-no interior divider separating the sleeping bag compartment (though it does have an access panel at the bottom)
Gregory really dropped the ball here, IMO. It's still a nice pack, but not nearly in the same league as the larger sizes. Haven't decided yet if I'll live with it, or return and size up.
