Looking for a 3 day pack

[hurley842002]

Kelty Redwing - They have them in a dark green and tan. They look great, are comfortable as hell and under $100. I just upgraded my GHB to this pack.

Edit
If you want to try it on they have them at Sportsman Whorehouse

Those of you recommending the Redwing, which size are you guys running? I'm looking at the Redwing 32 for a work/day pack, it looks kind of large for day to day use, but I found one at a great price.

I have the Redwing 50 in Large. It is 3100 cubic inches. It really is a 3 day pack and it would be big for a day pack. Not sure of the size of the 32 in relation to the 50. Sorry

Thanks for the response, I believe the 32 is 1900 cubic inches. I likely just need to check it out in person to see if it will fit my needs, hopefully I can find one local.

Try Sportsman Warehouse. I have seen them there.

I have a Kelty Redwing and love it. Not as "tactical" looking as most so it doesn't draw a lot of attention in an urban environment. Not sure I'd consider it big enough for a 3-day pack though. Mine is my daily use pack for hauling all of my crap around.

Oops. I guess I have the "Redtail" and not the "Redwing". Sorry.

I bought the Redtail for my wife recently, and it's a really nice daily use pack. I really liked the tan version and wish I would have picked one up, I don't think the Redtail is being made anymore, may have to turn to eBay.

I have one of the LAPG bail out bags for my truck and it has held up great over the years. With the quality I have seen from it, I would not hesitate on their 3 day pack from LAPG. I bought my 3 day pack from Jax locally and it's junk. Some stitching has already come apart and a few buckle's have broke. It hardly gets moved... Also check with Hbar, I don't know if he was selling packs yet.

Good packs:
GoRuck GR2
Kifaru Pointman or XRay (my next 3 day pack)
5.11 Rush 72
Mystery Ranch (anything - but their 3 day assault is quite nice - love the Y zipper)
Kelty Redwing 50 or Raven
Camelbak BFM (my current 3 day pack) or Motherlode (the Condor 3 day is roughly the same bag, but without the really comfy shoulders)
