GREAT REVIEW! Thanks for the feedback on the pack, how much webbing would you like to see added? We'll pass it along and get it implemented on the next round. Fantastic job!
Do U have a 100 liter pack? Poncho is great Addition. However It would be nice to have a separate pack cover that we buy or U can add-in. Also this would be alternative to a great poncho if someone like me is concerned about breathability hiking in a fully coated waterproof poncho.
Quick question if you’ve still got the pack, but are the stays curved out to create that air space between the back and the pack? I just received mine and the curve is pretty aggressive, just wanted to make sure it was intentional…
How big is the bottom pouch? I have the Explorer which is the size below the 5500 and even with my military sleep system compressed it wont fit in the bottom pouch and I was hoping this one would because the price points are not that far apart. Thank you
Living Survival Awesome! Looking forward to it! I've tried several collapsible lightweight jackets that can fit into a pocket (REI version, northface thermoball etc) but they each have their faults
Watched the 2700 vid and you mentioned a 90 liter pack and buddy and my are considering some 7+ days trips, so I had to watch it. Great video and the price of these is so low I can't really believe it for what you get; I showed my wife and she said no, I said why, she said because then you will have to buy a ton of damn gear to fill it....my response was yea obviously, she said stop watching his videos! Lol, thanks for the review man keep em coming!
Another thought to mention, The detachable bag is a very good attempt at what SHOULD BE a larger size detachable bag one that could properly store basic Summit Requirements , yet large enuff to hold emergency bug out bag: winter bivvy sack clothes winter sleeping bag alcohol stove n kit winter emergency food water fuel clothes down jacket & all n kit for emergency. Extended Stays of 30 days or more w no Re-supply in extreme remote areas are becoming more and more popular. Please create these options And tell us of your fabric if it's weatherproof & what type weights of fabrics n such
4th! lol - I was wondering if this was coming, I saw it on the ground in your wkend camping video, w the label turned towards us the loyal viewers hoping you can beat these Zombies chasing you in the woods.
I'm really diggin this pack. I have been looking at a few of the TETON packs for awhile for backpacking. I need to get a new pack for backpacking and I don't have a ton to spend. This is a GREAT option for 3 seasons. I wouldn't use it in the summer though because its black. That would be HOT!
Just bought it on Amazon. Thank you, you clarified a couple of things for me about the pack. Sorry I didn't see your video first or else I would've bought it thru your link. I just subscribed to your channel. Thanks
Thanks for the video, Ben. Looks like a good pack, but I wouldn't consider a five pound pack ULTRALIGHT. I know this is the company's terminology, not your own.
I dunno. My Titan 65 is almost exactly the same, give or take, lighter and I only paid $75 new. (Although the price has gone up) And a 90 liter pack is freaking huge! Like almost too big for anything you could carry. To each their own, I guess, but I have more than enough room in my 65 liter.
This is a very nice pack. I wish Teton would combine certain features into this pack from other ones. It's hard to find one specific pack to my taste. I like a lot of compartments on the outside like the Explorer 4000 and top and bottom compressions for tent and bed roll. A lot of packs don't have those and have to put the tent inside diminishing space for food and clothing. I would also love to someone make horizontal daisy chains on the outside to hang MOLLE bags other than having to by a MOLLE bag. most daisy chains are vertical. I'm almost sold on this one though. I especially like the smaller 3L on the back cause that's where I like to put my medic kit. But not sure if its big enough because I do like to pack a lot of medical stuff since I am a medic.
That thing looks like a cave down through the middle of it!! I wish I had a pack like that 30 years ago when I was doing a lot of hiking!! Awesome Pack, Great Review, Thanks Much!!
great review! I am definitely considering buying this pack. my only real concern is the color.Black?!? usually I am backpacking in the summer so it's really hot. I feel like it would attract so much heat and everything in it would just melt (kidding)! Is this something that I should worry about?
+Real Outdoors They have packs in other colors but I certainly wouldn't use black in the dessert. For me it works as a winter pack as I typically won't need that large of a pack in the summer.
Great review and I have looked at this brand on Amazon and was surprised at the affordability of this product and all the Teton products. I don't see how you could wrong with that. Thanks for the vid.

+TETON Sports sounds great!
Do U have a 100 liter pack?
Poncho is great Addition.
However It would be nice to have a separate pack cover that we buy or U can add-in. Also this would be alternative to a great poncho if someone like me is concerned about breathability hiking in a fully coated waterproof poncho.
I'd love to see a pack larger than 90 liters, with a thick rain cover to match, capable of holding 60+ lbs.
how does this compare with the Baltoro 95L? I hate the price of the Baltoro. Looking for less expensive options
Quick question if you’ve still got the pack, but are the stays curved out to create that air space between the back and the pack? I just received mine and the curve is pretty aggressive, just wanted to make sure it was intentional…
The poncho is cool and all but I would assume most people have rain gear already. I would rather it just be a pack cover IMO.
How big is the bottom pouch? I have the Explorer which is the size below the 5500 and even with my military sleep system compressed it wont fit in the bottom pouch and I was hoping this one would because the price points are not that far apart. Thank you
I'm a winter camper/backpacker. I need this pack. Great review sir.
they make some nice stuff that is affordable.
So what packs over 5500 do U think are great for price?
Jacket?
Black diamond forge. Great jacket.
Great review! What jacket are you wearing?
+tactical veterinarian review coming soon.
+imsuckingwind review coming soon.
Living Survival Awesome! Looking forward to it! I've tried several collapsible lightweight jackets that can fit into a pocket (REI version, northface thermoball etc) but they each have their faults
Getting ahead of myself (as I'm still watching the vid) but how is a 5 lbs pack (w/o tarp & poncho) considered to be "Ultralight"?
+SoCalDaveL that is what they call it. considering it is a 90 liter pack though 5lbs is pretty ultralight.
When you put on that poncho, I thought it was an Angry Bird..lol. Great review
+Outdoor Wanderer lol
Looks like a great winter pack.
Now that is a comprehensive review; well done Ben. Even more so, that pack is huge! Nice but still huge lol
+Feral Woodcraft it is huge for sure.

haha, price is definitely right with the included tarp.
Bro what’s that blackout you mentioned what product is that

I have a backpack obsession to be sure, this bag has many features of only my most expensive packs, pretty fair price if the quality is there!
+sean john the quality is there ;)
4th! lol - I was wondering if this was coming, I saw it on the ground in your wkend camping video, w the label turned towards us the loyal viewers hoping you can beat these Zombies chasing you in the woods.
+Barry Dutton more to come.
great pack and review...little large for my needs,,but nonetheless,,i like it
I am 6'5 larger torso do you think this pack will work
i just bought this pack , its pretty good. My only complaint is the shoulder straps don't have much padding. So its uncomfortable
+ESCO BOT was actually very comfortable for me and I had it as fully loaded as you could get.
Great pack, Ben. I have the TETON Sports Scout 3400 Internal Frame Backpack. It's a beast.
+Lellobeetle Nice.
What jacket brand is that
Great review and pack. I didn't see it on your Amazon page though.
Thanks for the review

+SouthPaw Bushcraft right. check out their smaller packs. I might get another one to review. they make great stuff for the money.

Thanks for the video, Ben. Looks like a good pack, but I wouldn't consider a five pound pack ULTRALIGHT. I know this is the company's terminology, not your own.

+PREPFORIT Agreed, agreed and agreed again.
Another thorough review. thank you.
great pack and review! It really has a lot of great options.
+AdventureCamping Agreed.
I dunno. My Titan 65 is almost exactly the same, give or take, lighter and I only paid $75 new. (Although the price has gone up)
And a 90 liter pack is freaking huge! Like almost too big for anything you could carry. To each their own, I guess, but I have more than enough room in my 65 liter.
+Christian Stiltner agreed for most trips. in the winter i need a large pack and this fits the bill perfectly.

+Primal Edge thanks Mike.
TETON makes some soled gear.: )
+Tyler Murphy agreed.
Great review. I am a huge fan of Teton Sports. Their customer service is fast and very professional.

+Patrick Cronin meh...

+James White thanks James.
I know that yellow is great for signalling, however it is a garish color that attracts insects.
+TurtleWolf Pack it will stay with this pack and I will only use it in the winter :)
whens the next zombie survive video

great review! I am definitely considering buying this pack. my only real concern is the color.Black?!? usually I am backpacking in the summer so it's really hot. I feel like it would attract so much heat and everything in it would just melt (kidding)! Is this something that I should worry about?
+Real Outdoors They have packs in other colors but I certainly wouldn't use black in the dessert. For me it works as a winter pack as I typically won't need that large of a pack in the summer.
+Living Survival thanks for the reply! I'll definitely look into some of their other packs

Imo Teton packs look waay better than Ospreys.
ospreys never fit me right
Haha yup. Could you do a review on the Teton 1800 rock? Id love to see that.
Could you put a rifle in the side compartment and then use the compression straps to secure it?
maybe a rifle that breaks down.
Was thinking more like a carbine or tactical shotgun.

when did 90 liter packs become UL? UL is usually under 10lbs total base weight. That pack itself is more than half of that.
+Shonryu lol yeah, they is what they call it.
+Living Survival :P
