Great Balance of Fit, Weight, & Features - Potential Blockbuster Pack For Gregory?
Review
With this brand new release from Gregory, I am excited to provide what may be the first customer review of the Paragon 48L backpack. I consider myself to fall into the category of ‘lightweight’ backpacker, but definitely not UL. My typical three-season base weight is 16-17 lbs., plus consumables and fuel. I also typically hike and camp in more rugged terrain in the backcountry, with often times ‘spotty’ trails. Occasionally, I will also section hike. I’ve been hunting for a new pack, and have personally used various brands in the past (Osprey, Granite Gear, Kelty). All of these companie...

Gregory Paragon 48L
This 48L is light weigh and good for few day trip. One amazing is the top lid is expandable for increased volume. The hip belt is adjustable to fit. I like the pack colour very much and the raincover and the hydration sleeve/pack and it brings the weight down
Pros:
- Light in weight
Cons:
- nil
Best Used for:
- Trekking
- treking, backpacking, hunting
- Trekking and Mountaineering
Would recommend: Yes
Great fit and perfect size
My previous backpack was too big and heavy. This is the perfect size for overnighters and weekend trips. Extremely comfortable, with just the right amount of padding in the shoulder harness and hip belt.
Would recommend: Yes
Outstanding Backpack in almost all categories
This is my 6th pack in the 45-48L range. This pack met all my requirements for a lighter pack in this volume/weight range. I think I'm going to keep this one til it falls apart. My other packs were good, but not good enough for me to keep.
Details:
1) Adjustable torso makes this pack very delightful and I really like how the pack is as close to the back as possible, while keeping it very breathable
2) There are NO pinch or hard points to the body and this is very important for comfort
3) The hipbelt is well thought out with very usable pockets
4) I use ultralight dry bags (I think I have 12 UL dry bags to choose from) but the added rain cover is a plus and the way it covers the pack water hasn't pooled along the bottom of the raincover
5) I love the bottom access. I would prefer side access, but this weight/L ratio with any access is a winner for me. My other pack is the awesome Gossemer 60L for the long haul that weighs under 2lbs but doesn't have side or bottom access, which is annoying at times
I think this is the pack I've been waiting for. Only way I'll upgrade is if Gregory installed a side zippered access.
Finally, ONLY ONE very poor picky criticism: no loops under the pack for my thermarest Z pad. however...there are two adjustable straps that my Zpad will fit in easily. What am I going to do with the extra UL straps I paid good money for, now?
