Gregory packs are reachable for blue collars. It's functional & durable for outback, school & rock climbing. Great run & still rocking. Good to see the GT family having quality time enjoying mother nature. Cheers cobber from Australia.

[@davidebomboy4697]

Perfect timing! I was just looking for this exact thing to travel. Already ordered it, thanks!

[@gideonstactical]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@dallasn16]

Gregory has been making great budget packs for awhile. Great video!

[@gideonstactical]

Thanks for watching!

[@panagiotissoufliotis6558]

For hiking looks fine, but i prefer more ''tactical'' back packs . with more lashing points for gear, and molle system. Also always i cary a secondary side bag , as a ''go home pack'',with all the first aid, water filter, fire kit , and essentially need gear to access in one move, separate the weight , having more balanced movement. Also having this ready , i just grab n go for every task in sort distance from the camp . But for a walk in the woods , for a few hours it's just fine , in a good price. Good review!

[@pinkybunyi4982]

I have the Nano 18 in Woodland Camo, and I really like it! It’s comfy, durable and versatile- great for short walks whether I’m in the city or in the forest.

[@gideonstactical]

Awesome!! Glad it is a good bag for you too!

[@rlfstr]

Ooh I love the Woodland Camo colorway

[@craigarmstrong7860]

Great review as usual. Thank you!

[@gideonstactical]

[@donalddicorcia2433]

Nice pack. Gregory has been making military gear for decades. Nice to see what they’ve learned filtering to the civilian market.

[@Katzku]

@donalddicorcia2433, this comment made me buy my first Gregory backpack (citro24), can't wait for it to arrive🤗

[@zainanderson2583]

I use this bag everyday. My dad gave it to me and I legitimately thought it was $100+ bag due to the quality and functionality. This bag at $60 is a great deal!

[@gideonstactical]

Ya it’s crazy and glad you are having a good experience

[@Phamtom_images]

do you think that this bag will be thin enough to be packed in a carry on suitcase? im looking for a daybag for europe

[@Jody6441]

My wife has the nano 18 and I have the nano 20. It is by far the best daypack I have had in that size range.

[@gideonstactical]

Glad you are having similar success with the design

[@paulprovart931]

I have this pack and am interested in the hardside system with the 48oz bottle they sell. Do you think that would fit in the side pockets?

[@aquafabaaa]

Anyone has any idea what color is on the inside of the Blaze Green?

[@bigzach322]

When you said you weren't aware of packs with this capability in this price range, I immediately thought of the Mountainsmith Clear Creek lineup. Surprised you don't think it is in this class given your praise in the past. Easily my favorite sub-$100 daypack, and at this point I avoid buying any packs without webbing on the shoulder straps.

[@gideonstactical]

Yep, past is the key phrase. my understanding is they are being phased out. They are on sale everywhere and a few places say discontinued. Every good packs but these Gregory packs are still in production and cheaper than what MS is selling now. 👍

[@bigzach322]

@@gideonstactical Wow really? That's surprising. I thought it was the best product line from Mountainsmith. Might have to pick up that Clear Creek 20 on sale to replace my older model.

[@clintonlewis1261]

Cool that it's a budget pack, Forest green would be nice.

[@gideonstactical]

Yes they have that color 👍

[@eyeofthetiger4184]

G'day Aaron, I reckon its fair to say there's an array of different "day walk" and bike scenarios. i.e. how many hours, how far, how rugged, how isolated etc. It's also fair to say there's a shipload of less expensive packs out there; it's "simply", ...... lol, a matter of separating the wheat from the chaff ....... hats off to you for even attempting it. This one looks decent enough, for a few hours on a well trodden trail, or particularly for a bike ride IMO. I'm with ya, many, many, packs don't offer a simple and effective external solution for a rain jacket, (or a warm layer), which may well be a frequent on/off activity ......... love that this one does. Btw; do you have "Black Wolf" products over there ? I have a couple of their day packs which appear to be similarly spec-ed and priced ..... and my go to for non-rambo like missions ; ) + they're so common here, .... they're also very good for an urban "greyman" approach, ... regardless of the material color. Cheers Duke.

[@jamesparker6383]

Hydration bladders have a tendency to leak after a period of time and the maintenance is another thing not worth them. I agree with you on the bottles much simpler.

[@JC-wj3hx]

hows the comfort on the back? looking for one for my wife actually.

[@FoxSolomon1]

My favorite day pack.

Gregory is a belgium producer as far as I'm aware and they make really awesome backpacks indeed... I have had Gregory Border 25L as my primary laptop backpack for business trips and for it's price and functionality = overall value, it's unbeatable as well! Alas, my wife took it from me, cause she likes it for the very same reason and due to her position she has more trips than me, so I've bought The North Face Kaban 2.0 27L instead and it's great... But You know, I still miss my Gregory Border 25L! This is why when I searched for EDC non-laptop backpack, I checked Gregory offerings first of all and stumbled on this Gregory Nano 20L! What can I say - since then, it's my favorite EDC for city use when I don't need to carry my laptop with me! Lightweight, ergonomically wise, a lot of organization what lightweight backpacks usually lacking = just compare to Deuter Speedlite 21L for instance - in terms of pockets, compartments and usability it is beaten by Gregory Nano in all possible ways! So I use this Gregory Nano with great of joy as my primary gym backpack and backpack for the pool and/or beach as well as short outdoor activities, however only short and easy ones! Because it has quite soft shoulder straps which is not good for heavy loads more than 4kg of weight I'd say Therefore, when I do serious outdoor activities like visiting Transfagarasan in Romania for example, I prefer my Osprey Archeon 24L as primary backpack for hiking

[@-NoneOfYourBusiness]

I bought one for work and Im reading reviews because I like it a lot. Looks like Im not alone. Im considering buying another one to replace my current (one person) bug out bag since 20 liters is enough for me for BoB. What do you think ? Great review. Thanks.

[@gideonstactical]

I think it is built well enough that I could play that role!

[@Randoker67]

Have you considered modding the belly strap to give you the trekking pole loops you wanted?

[@gideonstactical]

That would be tough with this design, but I might mess around with it.

[@eloslaconia]

Pls mind that smaller Nanos have smaller side pockets which can't hold Nalgenes.

[@gideonstactical]

Nice good to know thanks for sharing

[@mollygarza3812]

Every summer I browse the nano 18 and 20, but never bit the bullet and purchased it. Additionally, what red pack is the boy wearing at the 19sec mark?

[@gideonstactical]

A dueter kids pack, video coming soon

[@mollygarza3812]

Awesome. Can hardly wait for that

[@charlescollier7217]

Thanks for the review, Aaron. I don't know how I missed it before, but you and your brother look like twins - are you?

[@gideonstactical]

Haha 👍

[@kvtas]

Hey, I am dad of twins and I am looking for multi purpose backpack. For grocery shopping, as daily bp for my job, for some trips with my kids and sometimes for 2-3 day trip to hotel or one night in the forest. So two last backpacks in my list are Gregory Nano 30 and 24. Sadly I didn't find any such good review of Nano 30. Do you think 24 will be enough big or I should spend some more bucks for that extra 6l of capacity? Thanks in advance. :D

[@gideonstactical]

I have always found that around 24 has worked for me even with my two boys. 30 L tends to be pretty large unless you carry a lot of stuff.

[@kvtas]

Nice pack. I'll have to check that one out. Have you ever heard of the Seibertron pack? I saw it online a while back and was impressed by its size options and expansion options with add on side compartments. It looks good and affordable.

Thanks for the feed back Steven, not sure what you mean? Spot starts at 1:45 and ends at 3:08 that’s 1:23 by my math. I know some people don’t like spots but that’s the main way content creators are able to keep making content. Helps pay for this pack I bought to then give you the review. I turn down a lot of company’s that don’t fit the channel and you the audience. Hope that helps give a little perspective thanks again for the comment and watching 👍

You buy the pack, you do the testing, you record, edit, and post, we get a free review. ( :

I don’t mind a spot just put the little countdown bar on or make it possible for people to get to the actual review. If you think you’re getting something for “free” you are the product.
