was looking at the one planet shadow pack and wondered if anyone had comments (good or bad) or would like to share their experiences in using it.

cheers

Penguin has one and is very happy with it. The new model looks even better to me. While ever you use them as intended I reckon they make a great pack.

Hi I tried one out and was attracted to it by the light weight. I'm 6'1"male and found I could not get a comfortable fitting from the recommended Medium size 60l ( I think) . Also the single strut in the middle that gives it the strength and sliding size adjustment seemed uncomfortable and I had trouble with the head space area. Felt my head was hitting the top of the lid area. I was fitted out by the store salesperson and no matter what I did , it felt not right for me .
Great concept and light and reasonable robust and I know a couple of female walkers who swear by theirs... But for me , unfortunately. If it would have fit comfortably , I would have bought one . I ended up buying an Osprey Aether 65l ( 2.3kgs) and think it's great . Not as robust but fits me well. Hope this helps. SC

i have the 60L / long, happy with it.
2 buts...i'm an inexperienced multi-day hiker i can't compare this pack with any other and i'm male but 5'6"
THe couple of walks i have done i've ended up carrying less weight than the people i'm with

I've never been able to get a One PLanet pack to fit me comfortably. I know I'm a small minority, but there you have it. PLenty of others love them though.
