Bought it two years ago in Germany. It's maybe one of the best packs for extremely heavy loads. It's made of heavy duty polyester/cotton (protects your gear from rain) (now it's made of Cordura) with really tough seams.
+ comfortable like a Gregory internal frame pack or better
+ great for long walks and expeditions
+ Norroena quality, you CAN'T destroy this pack (I was so tired one evening and drove with my car over it!)
- not a pack for free downhill skiing
I've had a Gregory Panel Loader and Dana Design Glacier before... This pack's better.
