    • Really great pack
Color: Onyx Size: 65L
Review Image by Alexander Elder Alexander Elder
This turned out to be very comfortable. The adjustablity of the torso size allows you to adjust the pack so weight distribution is better. Where you will feel the difference compared to cheaper packs is that, when adjusted correctly, it keeps the weight from riding solely on and crushing your shoulders. I like the smaller, but still big enough to be usefull pockets on outside that make it easier to keep items organized without everything jumbled/jamned in a single large pocket. It makes locating things like a first aid kit, duct tape, head lamp, etc. easier, without rooting around in the large pocket and having to take out half your stuff to find anything. Further, this pack allows me to carry a camp stool comfortably in a vertical position where it is easily accessed. It also, has small compartments in the waist band that allows easy access to snacks/napkins/folded paper towels. (cold weather always makes my nose run - which becomes highly annoying on the trail. These compartments allow you to easily solve this problem by keeping supplies accessible without stopping.) Durability is good - should last for years. Overall I really like this pack and for the price is a good deal. The only con is the non-adjustable ice axe loops. Which unless you are planning to hike in artic ice conditions are not useful. (maybe carry a wood axe instead?) They would be better if they were adjustable loops that could be utilized for strapping on other types of gear. Update: the ice axe loops actually work to help hold my trekking poles. So I guess I eliminated my only con. ... show more

    • Great pack and even better company!
Color: Blue Size: 65L
I'm a big guy, 6'1" 260 pounds with a 21.5" torso length, and a 44" waist. This pack fits although the chest strap will be too tight come winter when I have to layer up. This pack is well made and comfortable to wear and it's large size is perfect for multiple day outings with my dog. If you utilize the attachment straps on the top and bottom you could easily use this pack for a camping trip that lasted a week or longer, depending on the gear you take. I can pack a Naturehike 3P 3 person tent with footprint, 10x10 Chill Gorilla Tarp, 3 inflatable pillows, Static V Luxe sleeping pad, food for myself and my dog, Sawyer mini filter, 3 litres of water, cook kit, fire making kit, small first-aid kit, folding saw, Mora knife, 3 headlamps, small LED lantern, battery bank, cordage, collapsible dog bowls, sleeping bag, and two complete changes of clothes with room to spare internally so the rain cover fits. I use the bottom loops to secure my dog's sleeping pad although the rain cover wouldn't cover it completely, it's easy enough to slide it inside of a garbage bag to keep it dry. If I didn't have to dog supplies, I could pack in two weeks worth of food and clothes with no trouble. The side pockets allow you to slide hiking poles, fishing rod, ax, hatchet, folding saw, tri-pod or other similar items behind them to hold it securely to the outside of the pack (although not all of it at the same time). All-in-all, it's a great pack for the price. More importantly, Teton's customer service also deserves 5 stars and reading customer reviews about their customer service was the main reason I chose to purchase a Teton pack. Here's my experience with them. This was my first adjustable pack and my GF misunderstood what I was asking her to do when measuring my torso and we got it wrong the first time. I ordered the Scout 3400 which turned out to be too small so I had to return it. No problem there. That's when I ordered the Explorer and the first one I received was what I would call a factory second. It was obvious that bag was overlooked by QC. It had threads hanging off of it all over the place, one strap was sewn on backwards, the zipper in the lid wouldn't zip completely closed and would work it's way open about 3 inches just from walking around with the pack on and one of the shoulder straps was frayed badly. I contacted Teton again about this pack, provided some photos and they sent a replacement the very next day, no questions asked. On top of all that, I mentioned in the email to Teton that the chest strap is pretty tight and they offered to make me a custom extension for the strap. As far as I'm concerned, this is a company that knows how to take care of their customers and stand behind their products 100%. They've earned my loyalty and respect and I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend them to anyone I know personally. This is one company that you can truly buy from with confidence that they will be there for you when you need them to be. Awesome! ... show more

    • EXCELLENT, high-value backpack for the cost
Color: Blue Size: 65L
The Teton Sports Explorer 4000 is one of the better buys I have ever purchased. Be forewarned, this is a detailed review of the backpack, so use the search function if you're looking for specific review elements. For reference of this review, I purchased the product in early-April 2020 and have used it almost daily for my day-hiking use. Note: order of the following is random and does not indicate importance. 1) Inner compartment - The inside diameter of the main compartment is just a tad narrow, but the overall space and multiple pockets that are distributed throughout the bag are awesome. There is AMPLE space for the entirety of the bag, so I am very pleased about this. 2) Sleeping bag compartment - Some reviewers have mentioned that the bottom sleeping bag compartment was too small to fit their sleeping bags. I use a Hyke&Byke Eolus 0 degree down sleeping bag and this fit perfectly fine with just a bit of extra space remaining (the bag compresses to about 10.5x8, for reference). The other reviewers who stated it didn't fit did not really specify what bags they were trying to store, but I imaging the bulkier quilts and some of the synthetic bags can be a bit harder to fit in there. To avoid this annoyance, I would just make sure that your sleeping bag is about the same size as mine (or smaller) if you want to know for sure it fits. 3) Bottom/sleeping bag compartment zipper - Probably my only real negative about the bag. The zipper for the bottom/sleeping bag compartment follows a crescent curvature underneath overhanging backpack fabric - it is exceedingly annoying ever time I have to remove or add something to this compartment because the zipper is not smooth whatsoever. There are no other zippers on the bag that follow a curved path (mostly straight), but you can already tell from just those that the quality of the zipper is subpar. HOWEVER, this is a minor infraction compared to the cost of the bag. 4) Hip pads- Like most others, I am disappointed there are no embedded pockets in the hip pads - always seems like wasted space to me when company's do not include that. 5) Hole for Camelbak hose - THERE IS A HOLE for a Camelbak bag and hose/spout. It is admittedly difficult to find. It is midline right between the top of the shoulder straps. 6) Noise - One thing I have noticed (when I don't have my earphones in listening to music) is that there is an annoying squeaking nose, especially when I've placed >20 lbs of materials in the backpack. Based on other reviews, this is originating from the shoulder straps/pad attachment. I will be applying some oil (like another reviewer successfully did) and re-adjusting the straps to see if this resolves the issue. Not a big deal yet for me (since I listen to music or have noise canceling earbuds in), but I can see this being a huge issue when I begin walking with a group, and the squeaking completely wrecks the beautiful atmosphere or the sound of nature as we are hiking for hours. 7) Banded side drink holders - I very much appreciate the flexible bands for drink containers on the sides. Too often have I come across pockets that are so inflexible that they fail to adhere gracefully around different types of drinks (cans, canteens, water bottles, etc). This was both pleasant and a relief to see. 8) Comfort - The overall comfort of the bag is solid. There are obviously more comfortable bags out there, but are exceptionally more expensive. I have worn this bag for 9 hours straight at one point carrying 40 lbs and did not have any significant back, neck, shoulder, hip, or knee pain. The back ventilation is adequate, especially for the cost. The only caveat is that the tops of my shoulders began getting a bit irritated with the repetitive rubbing of the fabric of the shoulder straps and skin. It did become noticeable enough after 9 hours that I would consider purchasing a shoulder pad/cushion. 9) Durability - Only time will tell. I did inspect the stitching closely after initially opening and did not identify any shoddy work. As far as the actual material, it is fairly sturdy with decent water resistance (not water proof, but can stand light showers). I've trekked through several trees and pokey branches, as well as set it down on abrasive materials (rocks, twigs/sticks, pebbles, etc) and it is still intact. I will of course update if there are any observable tears in the near future. 10) Weight - At 5 lbs, this is not an ideal backpacking bag for most thru-hikers, who hike hundreds of miles and need to make every ounce count. The more expensive bags can usually bring that weight down to 2-3 lbs. If you plan on using this for a thru hike or extended multi-day backpacking trip, make sure to save weight elsewhere (sleeping bag, sleeping pad, tent, food/water, non-essential items). Overall, as long as you can get past the weight, it is a fantastic backpacking bag, especially if first starting out and are understandably concerned about some of the outrageous costs of other backpacks. That is really where this bag shines - you will save yourself at least $100-400 purchasing any other bag with similar specs. Safe travels adventurers! Edit (as of 8/27/22): Almost 2.5 years and multiple backpacking trips later, this backpack has remained a great value buy. Durability has been great, but as expected, zippers remain annoying at times, and one actually broke. Otherwise, it’s been a much better backpack than I thought it would be. While I plan on upgrading to a Granite Gear Blaze at some point, I am now in no rush since it seems this backpack may last for several more years. ... show more
