This is a great pack and has been around the world with me! It fits in all overhead compartments and carries everything I need for 10 days of wandering!

This bag is great, but smaller than youd expect, the way the top flap is manufactured, it doesn't fold out of the way when open, so it gets in your way when you try to access the main compartment. This is pretty frustrating and a surprising design coming from Arcteryx, who usually is very thoughtful about ergonomics like this.

I loved this product. I would not have chosen it by seeing it on the internet, but when i tried it on in a shop, i understood immediately that i had found the perfect pack for me. i am not tall (1,63 cm) and I have trouble finding packs that don't lie low on my back and hurt me. This one fits me perfectly ; i can put inside whatever i need, and everyday people stop me on the street to tell me how beautiful it is and to ask me where i got it from

The magnetic closure is slick. However the straps are not up to Arcteryx quality like other bags such as the blade and the arrakis. The back pad seems to have been put on the chopping block as well. The bird is stitched rather than thermoformed

this was recommended for my friend on her 1st camp trip and the left strap broke less than a mile into the hike. 1.5mi after tying the other strap in the other side broke off.
