What reviewers said

  • "I bought this a few weeks back and used it for an overnighter on the Berwickshire Coastal path last weekend and it is really comfortable to carry for such a lightweight pack. It also kept out the rain well. As a result, it has become my "go-to" pack for overnight trips/shorter day walks. The gear loops on the outside are really useful too; a nicely designed well thought out pack."
  • "Fantastic backpack! Chose it after big research on lightweight backpacks. Suits my needs just right. So light and comfy, you don't feel it on your back when it's empty."

Reviews from around the web

Tested: Exped Summit Lite 25 Backpack

The Summit Lite is surprisingly comfortable, even when it’s full, with nicely padded shoulder straps and auxiliary bands that buckle around your chest and hips to keep the pack in place.
Exped Summit Lite 15 Review

This is among the lightest packs we tested and stuffs into its own pocket to then be crammed inside a crag pack or overnight rucksack. The best use for this bag is on long face climbs or splitter cracks that don't get wide.
