The pack includes a roll-top closure, Y-strap top compression, four side compression straps, an internal mesh hydration sleeve, hydration port, removable internal aluminum stays, sternum strap, and the three external solid hardline pockets for ease of reaching supplies without having to open the pack.

When I hunted for a new backpacking pack, the Southwest was the last on my list only because the shoulder straps looked too thinly padded for my protruding collarbone, and I worried that the bottom of the pack would create sores on my sacrum, even though the design of pack itself was exactly what I wanted. So, I tried other packs instead, women-specific ones with thickly padded straps and suspension systems and every kind of pocket and point of adjustability you can imagine - and I was miserable. My shoulders and back were bruised, and I wanted to throw the pack off as soon as possible.After reading reviews and re-reading reviews, and after emailing Hyperlite's customer service reps for input, I finally trusted my gut and bought the SW.

And wow, what a difference! It took a bit to find the right positioning on my body, but once I did the load was effortless to carry up and down high elevations. I don't remember what the weight was, but I had 3+ liters of water, a few days' worth of food for myself and my dog, a lightweight tent, camp sandals, sleep system, camp stove, clothing, rain poncho, and a few other necessities. So, not ultralight. But I felt great wearing it and had no issue hiking 10 miles a day with it through the mountains. My shoulders were still slightly sore by the end of the day, but nothing like before, and I realized that because of the extent to which my collarbones protrude, I will always have sore shoulders with heavy loads no matter the pack. It's just a matter of how sore.The design overall is simple, intuitive. The materials are durable (I bought the black). And it fits like no other pack has ever fit. Best of all - no zippers. I have been hiking my whole life but have only ever loved my minimalist day pack, and now I can love my backpacking pack, too.

I was a little nervous to switch to an ultralight pack, but really, my heavy backpack was the last main item that was limiting my ability to get into a lighter overall pack weight status. I love the Hyperlite Southwest pack. It fits well, feels great, and is very rugged. I expected it to get far more dirty, but after my first 2 trips out it still looks white. It seems to stay cooler against my back. The pockets on the belt have quality, rugged zippers and can easily hold sun screen, bug spray, iphone, and trail snacks. The pouch on the back is divided into 3 areas and gear stays put well and doesn't seem to snag on things. I like the roll top feature so you can size the pack as needed to fit the contents. I highly recommend this pack if you have your base weight ...

I’ve used my Southwest 3400 on numerous backpacking trips, from 4 days to 40 days, and it’s held up against almost everything. It fits me really well and I appreciate the simplicity of the design. The one thing that frustrates me about it is that it’s water-resistant, not waterproof. Of course, 100% waterproofing is probably impossible, but with this pack, in the main body and in the hip belt pockets, water seeps in and then doesn’t seep out again. I’ve had some of my belongings just totally sopping wet with water because the waterproofing on this pack catches water on the inside. Wack. Definitely use a pack cover!

I found this pack very comfortable carrying a weight of around 25 pounds. I’ve yet to carry more than that, but I have no concerns with comfort up to 30, and I doubt there would be much issue up to 35 when needed. The pack somewhat conforms around your body, making it feel secure and comfortable.No, it does not breathe much at all, but living in a dry climate, that was little issue. Even with a mesh back panel, your back is still sweating, so I don’t see this being a huge loss.The simplistic design has to be the biggest selling point for me. It makes packing/unpacking so much easier. I never realized how unnecessary it is having a pack with a multiplicity of different storage compartments; it takes longer to pack and you end up forgetting where you put your ...

The outside pockets are awesome and store so much gear. The hip belt pockets are massive and easily store a large phone and tons of snacks.Given the reputation of this material, I’m optimistic the pack can take a beating and last a long time. Overall, I’d say it’s definitely worth the money!
This was a good pack when it first came out as there were very few dyneema packs. However with the current crop of amazing brands selling better backpacks for cheaper, HMG bags are just poor, overpriced products. This is not even taking into account that they have started to shift all their production to Mexico from Maine (while not lowering the cost). Dyneema fabric has been superseded by Ultra (Ultra 200, Ultra 400 and Ultra 800) and several incredible cottage manufacturers are offering super light Ultra 200/ 400 packs (much stronger than Dyneema) for a lower price than HMG with much better options. Checkout the Seek Outside Flight 2 or Gila (super light with incredible carrying capacity in Ultra 400 fabric), Durston Kakwa 40 or 55 (in Ultra 400), SWD Long Haul 50 ...

All these bags are not only made with the latest innovative material that beats Dyneema, but they offer features that HMG bags just don't. The HMG bag is essentially a plastic cylinder with uncomfortable shoulder straps and no horizontal stays for better load carry. Don't fall for Dyneema anymore, especially substandard quality being produced by HMG nowadays. Ultra is the future and HMG packs are offering a really poor value compared to the other companies outlined above that are innovating and providing real value (Durston at under 2 lbs in Ultra 200 for the price it is being sold at is a case in point. It is just ridiculous value for that price). HMG has been really good at marketing, but I strongly advise to do your research before you buy their product. If after researching you still like HMG, go for it. But you definitely owe it to yourself to research a bit further to get the best product for your money.I say all the above who had fallen for the HMG hype almost bought the SW 3400, but was turned to the other packs and have now purchased one of those brands. Couldn't be happier.
So I've read several reviews stating that the quality of the Mexican made packs has tanked. I have a 3 year old Maine made HL SW3400, and absolutely love it so I figured I'd use my 20% discount to order one for my son and if the quality was poor, I'd return it.The Mexican made pack arrived and I proceeded to do a through side-by-side review of the Mexican made versus Maine made packs.There are small variances that happen with any hand made product but the seam-by-seam comparison was great. Materials appear to by identical and workmanship is equally high in both packs.The one delta was grommets on the drain holes. I had seen some complaints that the lack grommets in the Mexican made proved shoddy workmanship. So I reached out to Hyperlite and was informed it's ...

I had seen some complaints that the lack grommets in the Mexican made proved shoddy workmanship. So I reached out to Hyperlite and was informed it's not a workmanship issue but rather a design change. HL found that the grommets in the original design were working themselves out so they decided to cease adding them and have had "zero" issues sans grommets.Obviously the Mexican made pack I received could be an "anomaly" of high quality, but I doubt it.Here are side by side pics for you to judge.
I am super sad to say this was an immediate fail. After researching ultralight packs, my husband and I both measured and bought this pack. I’m a 17 inch back, so bought the medium. The back length was fine, the pack was so light and easy to use, but the straps dug in to the sides of my neck and I could tell it would chafe horribly. I ended up going to REI and trying every pack in the store and settling on an Osprey Eja, which is obviously not as light, but felt like an orthopedic backrest for me, so I think that’ll be better long term despite the extra weight. The people at the store said they’ve heard a few people have the same problem as me, so definitely recommend just going and trying packs in person versus relying on reviews.My husband kept his pack since it ...

He decided he didn’t like the lack of frame and how sweaty it was (this was an August in Arkansas trip- sweaty was an understatement!), so he will probably try exchanging it for an osprey after seeing how much I loved my Osprey pack. He measured as an XL and the size was great, just didn’t like it like he hoped either.
I bought my HMG pack in 2017 and have used it extensively. My pack is the Windrider 3400 but there is no difference to the model other than different fabric for the outer pockets (mine are mesh). I have used this pack for a season canoe tripping in Algonquin and Killarney in 2018, on the PCT in 2019, and on various small trips on Vancouver Island between 2019 and now. This pack is not cheap but for those who want to pack lighter, it’s a great entry-level option. By this I mean, if your total weight (all gear including food and water) is between 30-35lbs, this could be the pack for you.I have lots to say on this pack but I’ll sum it up in some points:- The pack's volume is 55L internal with an extra 8L or so of external.- These do not have an adjustable back so ...

I am 19.5" in the torso and use a L.- The pack fabric is waterproof and the pack itself is near waterproof while still being super light. I find no need for a pack cover.- The most I have had in this pack was 60lbs+ in the snowy Sierra. I do not recommend this weight. I find this pack maxes out on comfort around 35lbs. It can handle way more, but it isn’t optimized for it.- When packing my bag, I pack stuff I need throughout the day outside in that huge front pocket or else at the very top of the bag. If you’re smart with how you pack, you won’t need to rifle through your pack.- When sliding on your butt down a snowy mountain, the gridstop fabric this model has is much nicer. My mesh model would collect snow in the front pocket and that no no bueno :(This is my go-to pack for everything and although, it's finally starting to show wear, I am seriously considering picking up another.- Bad Cheese
Wanted an ultralight pack without any desire to be an ultralight hiker. Something that could carry 30-35 lbs when needed with comfort but slim down to 20 lbs for faster trips. This pack is nearly perfect.I was skeptical on the claim ‘you don’t need load lifters if it fits’. The claim is absolutely true. Bought 2 packs to make sure one fit perfectly and with the right size hiked 50 miles with 30 lbs and never thought about load lifters – they really aren’t needed if the pack fits. 6ft tall and large was perfect.Extremely durable materials. Used it in Kings Canyon with rough rock/trees/river terrain still looked brand new when I returned and I wasn’t gentle. You save weight not only on the pack but since it’s basically waterproof you don’t need to carry a rain ... MoreWanted an ultralight pack without any desire to be an ultralight hiker.

Hyperlite’s Pods worked great as dry sacks and fit the inner shape to save space.Coming from a heavy load carrying 5 lbs Osprey pack with tons of features I thought I’d miss front zips, top brain, etc but in the end really didn’t. Love that the pack is so deep you could probably use it as a half a bivy (only sort of joking – it’s huge) but rolled down it could almost be a large daypack. Add some $3 shock cord to the back and it will carry trekking polls.Tough fabric with all the features you actually need and none you don’t. Was very skeptical if I’d like an ultralight pack but after only one trip it’s my favorite pack I’ve ever owned.
Wanting to cut down my total weight I purchased the Southwest 3400. I was skeptical about the lack of structure and the fact that I was used to and love Gregory packs that keep the pack from directly touching my back. I wanted to really feel if the weight savings on the pack itself was worth it. There were no Hyperlite packs in our local REI store so I went ahead and ordered it. I also ordered the Gregory DEVA 60 and Gregory Facet 55, so I could do a side-by-side comparison with a full loadout. My base weight is around 12ish pounds, so with full water and food, including bear canister, it's somewhere between 24 to 28 lb. I adjusted each pack to fit me as best as possible and packed the same exact load in each one of them. By far the most comfortable pack and ...

I adjusted each pack to fit me as best as possible and packed the same exact load in each one of them. By far the most comfortable pack and lightest feeling was the heaviest pack, the DEVA 60, but the Facet 55 was almost as comfortable, but has a far lower max load capacity and slightly smaller volume. In comparison, the Southwest 3400 was extremely uncomfortable and actually made the total weight *feel* much heavier than the other two Gregory backpacks. I naturally run hot, and having the backpack directly on my back was not comfortable at all. I returned the Southwest 3400 and kept both of the Gregory packs, and I'm totally happy with that decision. I kept the DEVA 60 for backpacking trips that prioritize comfort and carry capacity. I kept the Facet 55, which is much lighter than the DEVA 60 at just over 2 lbs, for more minimalist backpacking trips, when light weight is the priority. I do have, love, and enjoy other Hyperlite products (Ultamid 4 tent, Daybreak daypack, the packing Pods, and more), but the backpacks are simply uncomfortable to me. On the plus side, the materials seemed durable and the construction seemed like high quality. I just don't like the way it carries a load.
