>>577628Love it. Had serious reservations about dropping that much coin on a bag that, with a reasonable markup, should probably cost no more than $100. But there hasn't been a day I've regretted it. It's one of the rare items that I don't really take for granted, and I get pleasure out of it every time I use it just because I like it so much.
However, how much something is worth to the end user is subjective, and just because you spend $250 on a backpack doesn't mean you'll get $250 of enjoyment out of it. Personally I feel like I've gotten much more than that out of it, but I wouldn't recommend the backpack to anyone. If you see that you could use the backpack to its potential, and that it would meet your needs, and you don't mind spending more on a product that will last you a very long time with a warranty to boot, go ahead. But Goruck and TAD also try and sell a culture with their product as part of their marketing scheme, someone ITT said that Goruck is the crossfit of backpacks, they aren't far off the mark.
Buy it if you want it, know what you're getting, don't expect it to transform your life or anything though.
