Gregory Deva 60L Backpack - Women's Emerald Green, XS

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I took the Deva 60L Backpack on a five-day traverse with a loaded pack well over 35 pounds, and the Free Float suspension system made a difference I felt from the first mile. The hipbelt flex panels absorb movement on uneven ground in a way that keeps the load from ever feeling like it is fighting you, and the rotating shoulder straps sit against the body so naturally that you stop thinking about the pack entirely and start thinking about the trail. The U-zip front access alone has saved me from unpacking the whole thing more times than I can count.""A five-day haul demands a pack that earns its place on your back, not just one that holds your gear but one that genuinely carries it with you. Gregory built the Deva 60L Backpack around that premise, engineering a suspension system that moves the way a body moves rather than fighting against it. The Free Float system features hipbelt flex panels that absorb shock across uneven terrain and rotating shoulder straps that automatically adjust as you move, so the load stays planted on your hips where it belongs instead of migrating to your shoulders by mile three. The fit customization goes deeper than most packs at this price. The back panel adjusts to your exact torso length, and the hipbelt padding is fully customizable, so the Deva feels tailored rather than approximate. Organization is equally considered, with a front panel U-zipper that opens the main compartment wide, a SideWinder bottle holster that keeps a Nalgene reachable while moving, and a hydration sleeve that detaches entirely to become a SideKick Daypack for summit days. At 60 liters, there is enough room to do a long weekend right, and the recycled nylon construction means the pack carries less environmental weight than a standard build by about 30 percent."
