Exos Pro 55

Previously hiked with an Exos Pro that was always less than half full, which they found annoying.

Their 35 oz Exos Pro 55 takes a lot of abuse and carries weight better than their Arc Haul Ultra.

Returned a wrong-size Exos 58 and used an Exos Pro 55 on the AT instead, and loved it.

Carried the Exos Pro 55 on the JMT this summer with a BV500, including an eight-day carry from MTR, and found it nearly perfect; the side pockets take a Smartwater bottle easily.

Has just started testing the Exos Pro with a shoulder injury; the lighter load helps, but they feel it in the shoulder more than in packs with better load transfer.

Bought both the Exos Pro and a Gregory Focal and found the Focal far more comfortable.

Has the Exos Pro 55 in S/M after the L/XL sat too high; rerouting the compression straps around the side pockets made it work fine for their needs.

Their Exos Pro L/XL weighs 1,020 g and carried water fine in southern Utah, but it is not nearly as comfortable as the Exos 38 or 48 and its torso-adjustment pins pop out.

Has used their Exos Pro all year with no tears, no water in the main compartment in rain, lots of space, and a frame that makes 10 kg feel like nothing.

After wearing out an older Exos over years and disliking a Southwest 55, they bought an Exos Pro and love it.

Their Exos Pro 55 failed after 500 km over 19 days without being overloaded, and they advise against buying it.

Owns the Exos Pro and really likes it; the fabric feels plenty durable for the weight, matching years without holes in their Talon Pro.
