          This is a very adjustable ultraliight backpack. The belts can be swapped out by your vendor or by Granitw gear (you will pay for shipping your belt back to them)plus the harnes is adjustable. It comes in small and regular which should accommodate most people based on the adjustability. I used an Osprey Aether 70 large and this fits me fine plus it is 2+ pounds lighter which is important for long thru hikes like the Appalachian Trail. You can also add a lid if you want to add the extra weight (9 oz & ~$40).

          Best Uses

          Comments about GRANITE GEAR Blaze AC Backpack:

          Simplicity: This bag is pretty simple; one big large top loading part, two side pockets and one middle pocket that runs down the length of the bag. No small pockets or zippers hidden in the bag and no belt pockets (I have found those to be quite pointless now that I don't have them).

          Durability: The compression straps are delicate but keep the weight of the bag low. I haven't had a problem.

          Cons: The biggest con is that the hydration sleeve is way to small to fit a hydration system. I have a 100oz system that doesn't fit in the sleeve at all once filled with water. So instead, I just put it inside the main compartment. Not really a big deal, but slightly inconvenient.

          For someone who is looking to reduce weight, this is a pretty great bag. I only wish there were two straps on the bottom of the bag so I could attach my z-lite pad. It's possible to attach pads to the top of the bag but this reduces your usable space within the bag. But not to worry, straps can always be sewn on.
