For those quick overnights and fast day-hiking trips, carry Gregory's Z30 Backpack, a lightweight, durable pack with 5 pockets-worth of storage space and cool, ventilated JetStream DTS suspension system. While your back is kept cool by the ventilated backpanel, strain is reduced on your shoulders by the Auto-Fit harness system that conforms to your back while the specialized frame increases load transfer to the waistbelt as the pack weight increases.
Whether you're doing an ultralight overnight or a fast day out and back, the Gregory Z30 Backpack carry's your gear effortlessly with a unique Jet Stream DTS (Dynamic Transfer System) suspension system. The harness system is mounted to the main pack on crisscrossing bars. A tensioning system that stiffens the frame and offers additional support when more weight is loaded into the pack, keeps the pack off your back for maximum air-flow, while dynamically adjusting with the weight in your pack. Ideal for fast packing adventures including mountain traverses, hiking, and peak bagging, this pack handles up to 35 pounds of gear comfortably in its 1,800 cubic inch capacity. The simple top loading main pocket features a hydration sleeve, front zipper pocket, front dump pocket and stretchy mesh outer pockets for assorted extras. The hip-belt stash pockets provide easy access of sunscreen, energy bars, MP3, and quick need necessities.
Winter days or light summer overnights, the Z 30 is your perfect companion. Gregory® Jetstream DTS suspension actually increases support as the load increases, so pack as little or as much as you need, it will still be comfortable to carry.
Thanks to a lightweight suspension system, the Gregory Z30 Backpack keeps your gear comfortable on your back, so you can handle your day-hike or morning summit trip without feeling like you have a 50 pound safe strapped to your back. The Z30 daypack's framesheet supports your heavy loads, and a mesh back panel promotes airflow across your back as you heat up on the trail. A front zippered pocket and side mesh pockets hold maps, sunscreen, and snacks, and this Gregory backpack's front dump pocket keeps your rainjacket accessible. Stay hydrated with your water reservoir in the Z30 Backpack's hydration sleeve. Choose the medium pack when you need a little more space for your all-day adventures.
Whether it’s an ultralight overnight or fast day out on the trail, the Gregory Z30 is guaranteed to be a perfect fit.

All Around Great Day Pack | |
| Rating: |  |
I used the Z30 everyday for 2 months while in Uganda, in Puerto Rico, and on numerous camping, hiking, and day excursions. It is light, comfortable, and though it looks small, really packs a lot in! the hip pockets are great and the ventilation system works wonderfully! I also really like the clips in the side water bottle pockets, i can clip in my Nalgene with out having to carabiner it in or worry about it popping out while on my bike or on the trail. The only 2 negatives is that the waist belt isnt very snug on me, i got the medium and i am 5'10 153 lbs, probably should have gone with a small. and the main zipper is kinda small and if you need something at the bottom, gotta take everything out. but i LOVE this pack and it goes everywhere with me; from the bush in Africa, to the rainforest, to on campus. i would highly recommend this pack! | |

It is very comfortable. The quality is clearly top of the line. I highly recommended it. I used mine for the first time, loaded with everything for a five mile hike for my son and I. It did not bother me at all. It has all kinds of adjustment so you can fit it just right on the move. By the way Backcountry.com has the best customer service of any online company including Amazon that I have ever dealt with. Use the live chat, you will be surprised how helpful they are. Anything you buy can be easily and QUICKLY refunded. I buy it, try it in the field and if it doesn't meet my expectations they take it back without any hassles, no questions. They make it really easy right from the website, print a UPS label and as soon as UPS scans it they start the refund. WOW! Much better than the BS that Amazon puts you through no second party hassle. | |

"AWESOME WELL MADE DAY PACK THAT'S SUPER COMFY !!" | |
| Rating: | |
| This Gregory Z30 is great for a dayhike because it easily holds what I need and the compression straps hold the smaller loads down good and solid if you don't need to fill it all the way. What makes this pack great, is even though it is on the smaller side, it can still hold ALOT, if you plan to go longer than a day. It has lots of cool extras that don't add alot of weight to the pack. Even with a bunch of stuff in the pack, it still feels light and comfortable. The straps are very cush and totally adjustable for a perfect fit. I don't get tired wearing it all day. I love it so much that I recently bought the Z 65 for longer multiday hikes. | |

"AMAZING Multi-use Day Pack!!" | |
| Rating: | |
| Before buying the z30 I was a tried and true KELTY buyer. The curved suspension is FANTASTIC. The front pocket perfectly fits my MSR Lightening Ascent Snowshoes (women's). I used it climb several ADK winter High Peaks, and had enough room inside for my emergency gear and extra clothes, I can stash my crampons in one of the stretchy pockets or inside the pack its self, trekking poles fit great on the back. oh! There are also handy pockets on the waist belt, that are invaluable (I usually stash my camera in one and a quick snack). LOVE THIS PACK. After trying mine on, my Boyfriend got one for himself. I dare you to buy this pack, and not LOVE IT. | |

A Great Pack | |
| Rating: | |
I bought this pack before going to Italy for two months; I used it every day to walk the 2.5 miles home from work as well as on weekend excursions. Even loaded down with a laptop or two (and accessories), textbook, and various other things it was quite comfortable. I also took it on a 25 mile day hike with more traditional equipment in it...it was great for that too. It has stood up to abuse well, and the back panel does help to keep your back cooler, if not dry. Put this on last weekend for a hike and realized I actually missed wearing it. Gregory makes some great equipment and this pack is no exception | |

Great fit and support for taller frames | |
| Rating: | |
| At 6'-4" it is difficult to find packs around 30l that fit and provide support. Gregory has accomplished both. With a hydration bladder, the added weight on the shoulders proved to be burdensome over time with conventional daypacks. The Z30 eliminates this issue altogether and keeps you cool on long summer hikes. The Z30 could be improved slightly if side compression straps for the kangaroo pouch were longer to better accommodate bulky items as little room is left for the pouch when pack is full. All in all though this is terrific pack and fits the bill for tall profiles perfectly. | |

"Put weight in it when you try it on...suspension system rocks!" | |
| Rating: | |
| This pack rocks. At first I was a little worried because when I tried it on, it seemed too short, which is very odd because I'm about the shortest person on the planet, and things are usually too long for me. However, once I actually put weight in the pack, it settled nicely, the suspension system did it's job, and the pack fit great! Not to mention the breathability in the back panels is fantastic...finally a good pack that doesn't leave my back sweaty! | |

Great loading geometry. My hips never chafe, and the back ventilates reasonably well. Enough padding all-around to be comfy, but not excessive. The Gregory pear shape of the pack really helps in terms of settling heavy loads on the back for long hikes. I've even climbed easy trad with it a couple times. As a lanky, oddly built dude I recommend it highly for its comfort, adjustability and durability. | |

"Sweet daypack, I highly recommend" | |
| Rating: | |
| Excellent pack for when you are carrying that little extra on a day hike. The suspension and harness are extremely comfortable. The back ventilation is a nice feature. My back stayed cooler and perspired far less than with my old pack. Great detailed work, such as buckles, straps, strap holders, and hipbelt pockets make this a top notch pack. | |

"Great quality day pack!" | |
| Rating: | |
| Love this day pack. Great size, holding a good amount without going overboard for the day. Padded shoulder and waist straps are a good fit. I got the silver color and love it! | |
| Katherine at Moosejaw on 06/06/2008 | |
| "Ridiculous design - avoid this backpack. The waist belt is placed above the hard edge on the bottom of the pack. As a result, when carrying heavy stuff, the hard edge on the bottom will keep hurting your waist. the waist belt does nothing but moves most the weight onto that thin, hard edge on the bottom which makes even a short distance of hiking like a hell." | |

Not super happy with it | |
| Rating: |  |
I guess three stars means it's adequate for the job, but I wouldn't buy it again. I got a medium pack and I find it's too long for my torso (I'm 5'7"). Pockets on the hipbelt are very useful but I find they stick out a bit because they're right at the front by the buckle and I would prefer they were closer to my hips. Also, I find it's hard to get things out of the bottom of the pack because the zipper is small and the pack is kind of narrow in the middle, so you have to take everything out. | |
