Gregory Kiro 24 Day Pack

Gregory gave me this free product to try. Update: It has now been over 2 months since I started using this pack. There was only one time that this didn’t go with me only because it was too small for what I needed to carry. I’ve uncovered 1 issue which is really minor but I should note: the hanger for hydration does not work with my Osprey bladders. I still love everything else about the pack and will continue to use it as my primary day pack. When it first arrived, I wasn't sure if the right item was shipped, it didn't seem like a backpack could be in the package. I was immediately impressed with the weight and features of this pack. The features that stand out the most for me are the front entry stretch pocket on the left side for carrying a water bottle. It is easy to access on the go. On the right side is a forward facing zippered pocket for storing snacks or other smaller items. I had my microspikes in the this pocket on my last hike and had no issues with a gloved hand unzipping and retrieving them without taking off the pack. The third feature I'll highlight are the gear loops. I am out on the trails year around and the ability to strap snowshoes to my bag is a requirement. The gear loops along with a couple accessory straps provided a robust carry system and still allowed access to the main compartment and small top pocket. What would I change about this pack? It would be nice if the zippered side pocket had a little more volume or stretch. I carry a lot of gear and that results in a tight fit. Another suggestion would be including straps to connect to the gear loops or carrying items such as snowshoes, crampons, helmet,... This was my first experience with a Gregory and I will definitely be using this pack a lot and will give the rest of the lineup a serious look in the future.

I have been using this pack for a couple months now and have been loving it!! I wont buy a day pack without a waist strap and this one is SO comfortable! It fits great with my water bladder and is the perfect size for a long day of hiking. Plenty of pockets and spots for all the gear. Pumped to hit some of Colorados 14ers with this pack this summer!! #giftedproduct

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had the opportunity to thoroughly test the Kiro 24L Pack, and it's quickly become a versatile essential in both my outdoor activities and daily routines, particularly coaching soccer. While I don't typically wear the pack during coaching, it has been perfect for carrying my gear to and from the field. Its lightweight and streamlined design also makes it ideal for active use, including running and quick hikes. The fit of the Kiro 24L is excellent-snug and well-balanced, adjusting comfortably to my back shape without shifting around during movement. The suspension system is a standout feature; the CloudControl hip belt provides soft yet stable support, flexing naturally with my body movements, making it easy to forget I'm even wearing it. Access points are intuitively placed, allowing quick retrieval of gear. The main compartment offers ample space with straightforward entry, and the front stretch mesh pocket is perfect for items I need readily accessible, such as snacks, gloves, or a whistle. The pocket design is mostly excellent, with thoughtfully sized compartments. However, the side water bottle pocket is notably oversized. It securely holds larger bottles like Nalgenes without issue, but I've noticed slimmer, smaller bottles tend to slip out easily, particularly when bending over. Durability has been impressive thus far; the material shows no signs of wear despite regular use in various conditions, from soccer fields to trails. At a lightweight design, it doesn't sacrifice comfort for weight savings, striking an ideal balance. Comfort features, including padded straps and ventilated back paneling, ensure the pack remains comfortable even during extended wear. I've worn it comfortably while running and moving actively without any irritation or discomfort. I highly recommend the Kiro 24L Pack to anyone looking for a versatile, comfortable, and durable pack that's suitable for both daily tasks and active outdoor adventures. Coaches, hikers, runners, and commuters alike would greatly benefit from this pack, with the minor consideration of careful water bottle selection for the side pocket.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this backpack as daypack for hiking, skiing/ ski patrol, and general casual use. The pockets are useful but also not overkill, allowing for simple and functional gear organization. The material feels durable and after using it for 12 hours in the rain it dried completely in less than an hour indoors. I love it so much I might buy a second one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Disclaimer: Gregory gave me this free product to try. This pack is great. I used it for work and on my mountain bike. There is plenty of storage all throughout the pack. The zipper loops are awesome, and this packs ability to repel water is excellent. The waste strap is stretchy which makes it very comfortable as well. My only complaint was when I was carrying around my laptop which is a bit heavy, the shoulder straps seemed to want to creep outward as if the pack would fall off my shoulders. It never happened and the chest strap helped, but it just had that feeling of outward pulling.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently had the opportunity to use the Gregory Kiro 24 Day Pack for both hiking and my daily commute, and I was thoroughly impressed. The pack's adjustable suspension system and padded shoulder straps ensured it was comfortable to wear, even during long hikes. Its 24-liter capacity provided ample space for overnight gear, while the numerous pockets kept my essentials organized, making it easy to transition to work mode. The durable, weather-resistant materials gave me confidence during various conditions, and the sleek design felt right at home in the city. Overall, the Kiro 24 has been an excellent, versatile companion for both outdoor adventures and everyday use, truly exceeding my expectations!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Gregory gave me this free product to try. I have been using my Kiro 24 for over 2 weeks now, and I recommend it. I have primarily used it as a commuter bag and for day hikes. It easily fits everything I need for school, like my laptop and notebooks, and spring hiking, like rain gear, water, and snacks. I like that the main pocket has a divider that I can use for my laptop or a water bladder, depending on the situation. I also like the small pockets on the exterior for storing things I needed to access quickly, like my keys, tissues, and snacks. I did have to take the bag off to access any of the pockets or my water bottle, but I usually do for all backpacks. I found the bag comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. The shoulder straps never dug into my neck or armpits like some bags do, and the waist and sternum straps made for even more comfortable long wear. The backpack feels very durable and is still in perfect condition after near-daily use for two weeks. My only complaint is that there is only one outer water bottle pocket. Carrying my full bottle in the side pocket makes the bag's weight uneven. If you were to use a water bladder primarily, I think this pack would be more ideal. I have several other hiking day packs and commuter bags, but I have found myself happy to use this bag over them while I have been testing this product. I will continue to use it and plan on taking it to hike the Cotswold Way next month. I would recommend this bag for other people looking for a multi-purpose day hiking bag.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Gregory absolutely hit it out of the park with this pack. Gregory gave me this free product to try. I am so incredibly impressed with the functionality, versatility, and quality. This pack can do it all. From stylish frisbee golf/work days to conquering 14ers. The Gregory pack is my new daily driver. There's a side zip pocket for easy secure storage, as well as a large oversized water bottle holder that stretches to fit all bottle sizes securely. I also love the stretchy waist strap. Makes for an insanely comfy fit. I absolutely recommend this product to professionals looking to upgrade their daily driver.
