High Sierra Bobcat 65 

"I bought the 50L Foxhound for myself. I got it and was impressed! It's very adjustable (I'm a 5ft 7in/120lb. woman, and it's just right) and well made. I have since bought two of these 65L Bobcats. One for my partner, and one for his brother. They are both around 5ft 10in - 6' but one guy is broad shouldered and the other is a bean pole. The packs fit both of them perfectly. The shoulder straps adjust laterally, so if you're especially broad or narrow shouldered it will still fit you. It comes with extra pins for adjustments or replacements, also. The empty pack weighs right around 5.5 lbs., and has several smaller external pockets to keep food convenient while hiking. There's a cloth divider inside the main compartment - the lower zipper on the outer front opens to the "bottom" internal compartment - which you can fit a compressed bag or a tent into, and there are gaps in the corners of the pack where it doesn't connect. So it's sewn into the front, back, and sides, but has spaces for long items. This is great, because tent poles can fit in the pack vertically, and as long as you pack something on the divider as a base, you can take out the tent or bag or whatever you put in the bottom half, and all of your stuff in the top half is left pretty much undisturbed. The pack cinches down to the frame at the waist band, so that the weight of the pack is carried on your hips, not your shoulders. This is great when the pack is heavy! There's a mesh piece that keeps it off of your sweaty back while you hike, and there are little flaps where you can feed out your camelback-type water tube. One really neat thing that this pack has, that the 50L one I bought for myself didn't come with, is the waterproof rain cover. It's in a small zipper pocket at the top of the pack, and it's attached via a little nylon strap. So you just pull it out of the pocket, stretch it over the pack (it has an elastic cord sewn into the edge), and it stays dry. These packs are a great value!!"

"Works great!"

"Very durable--roomy-easy to pack."

"Well made product...Good size, I am 6 foot tall and 250 and the pack is still a good fit"

"Very nice pack. Super light. Straps on the bottom of the pack would be nice to attach a sleeping bag or tent. Nice variety of pocket sizes. Love the extra pockets on the top flap/cover and also the larger pocket on the uppper compartment front. Shoulder pads and hip belt seem durable and comfortable, however have not taken on a long hike yet. Rally like the built in rain cover. Is a little on the small size, however worked great on both weekends I have used it. We had rain one weekend and heavy dew another and pack itself remained dry. Have reccomended to quite a few people who asked."

"great back pack"

"Great service (fast shipping) from eBags. This pack looks well made and when I get some use out of it this spring will give a follow up.....so far all my gear will fit nicely."

"nice item, great service. should have purchased a size larger for 23""

"I Have so far only used the Bobcat65 on two weekend mountain hikes. I cannot speak about the durability, but I can recommend the workmanship and materials. Loaded with 100 lbs of camping and rock hounding equipment it works very well in distributing the weight between shoulders and hips. It is the most practical heavy load backpack that I have used so far"
