    • EXCELLENT, high-value backpack for the cost
Color: Navy Blue Size: 65L - 2021 Model
The Teton Sports Explorer 4000 is one of the better buys I have ever purchased. Be forewarned, this is a detailed review of the backpack, so use the search function if you're looking for specific review elements. For reference of this review, I purchased the product in early-April 2020 and have used it almost daily for my day-hiking use. Note: order of the following is random and does not indicate importance. 1) Inner compartment - The inside diameter of the main compartment is just a tad narrow, but the overall space and multiple pockets that are distributed throughout the bag are awesome. There is AMPLE space for the entirety of the bag, so I am very pleased about this. 2) Sleeping bag compartment - Some reviewers have mentioned that the bottom sleeping bag compartment was too small to fit their sleeping bags. I use a Hyke&Byke Eolus 0 degree down sleeping bag and this fit perfectly fine with just a bit of extra space remaining (the bag compresses to about 10.5x8, for reference). The other reviewers who stated it didn't fit did not really specify what bags they were trying to store, but I imaging the bulkier quilts and some of the synthetic bags can be a bit harder to fit in there. To avoid this annoyance, I would just make sure that your sleeping bag is about the same size as mine (or smaller) if you want to know for sure it fits. 3) Bottom/sleeping bag compartment zipper - Probably my only real negative about the bag. The zipper for the bottom/sleeping bag compartment follows a crescent curvature underneath overhanging backpack fabric - it is exceedingly annoying ever time I have to remove or add something to this compartment because the zipper is not smooth whatsoever. There are no other zippers on the bag that follow a curved path (mostly straight), but you can already tell from just those that the quality of the zipper is subpar. HOWEVER, this is a minor infraction compared to the cost of the bag. 4) Hip pads- Like most others, I am disappointed there are no embedded pockets in the hip pads - always seems like wasted space to me when company's do not include that. 5) Hole for Camelbak hose - THERE IS A HOLE for a Camelbak bag and hose/spout. It is admittedly difficult to find. It is midline right between the top of the shoulder straps. 6) Noise - One thing I have noticed (when I don't have my earphones in listening to music) is that there is an annoying squeaking nose, especially when I've placed >20 lbs of materials in the backpack. Based on other reviews, this is originating from the shoulder straps/pad attachment. I will be applying some oil (like another reviewer successfully did) and re-adjusting the straps to see if this resolves the issue. Not a big deal yet for me (since I listen to music or have noise canceling earbuds in), but I can see this being a huge issue when I begin walking with a group, and the squeaking completely wrecks the beautiful atmosphere or the sound of nature as we are hiking for hours. 7) Banded side drink holders - I very much appreciate the flexible bands for drink containers on the sides. Too often have I come across pockets that are so inflexible that they fail to adhere gracefully around different types of drinks (cans, canteens, water bottles, etc). This was both pleasant and a relief to see. 8) Comfort - The overall comfort of the bag is solid. There are obviously more comfortable bags out there, but are exceptionally more expensive. I have worn this bag for 9 hours straight at one point carrying 40 lbs and did not have any significant back, neck, shoulder, hip, or knee pain. The back ventilation is adequate, especially for the cost. The only caveat is that the tops of my shoulders began getting a bit irritated with the repetitive rubbing of the fabric of the shoulder straps and skin. It did become noticeable enough after 9 hours that I would consider purchasing a shoulder pad/cushion. 9) Durability - Only time will tell. I did inspect the stitching closely after initially opening and did not identify any shoddy work. As far as the actual material, it is fairly sturdy with decent water resistance (not water proof, but can stand light showers). I've trekked through several trees and pokey branches, as well as set it down on abrasive materials (rocks, twigs/sticks, pebbles, etc) and it is still intact. I will of course update if there are any observable tears in the near future. 10) Weight - At 5 lbs, this is not an ideal backpacking bag for most thru-hikers, who hike hundreds of miles and need to make every ounce count. The more expensive bags can usually bring that weight down to 2-3 lbs. If you plan on using this for a thru hike or extended multi-day backpacking trip, make sure to save weight elsewhere (sleeping bag, sleeping pad, tent, food/water, non-essential items). Overall, as long as you can get past the weight, it is a fantastic backpacking bag, especially if first starting out and are understandably concerned about some of the outrageous costs of other backpacks. That is really where this bag shines - you will save yourself at least $100-400 purchasing any other bag with similar specs. Safe travels adventurers! Edit (as of 8/27/22): Almost 2.5 years and multiple backpacking trips later, this backpack has remained a great value buy. Durability has been great, but as expected, zippers remain annoying at times, and one actually broke. Otherwise, it’s been a much better backpack than I thought it would be. While I plan on upgrading to a Granite Gear Blaze at some point, I am now in no rush since it seems this backpack may last for several more years. ... show more

    • Rugged, reasonably priced, adjustable, quick access lot of packets (85L).
Color: Buck Brown Size: 85L - 2022 Model
I went on 4 shakeout trials, 2 weeks Philmont, NM scout hiking event in 2022. All went perfect. Definitely It is not light weight but comfort, rugged, easy to organize things. I had lot of fun with my bag. Well built, durable, good looking. My Sleeping bag, tent parts went in to easy to access bottom compartment. 3 Side packets, 1 front, 1 top packet for Maps were plenty of things like Rain Jacket, whistle, maps, spoon, knife, quick access food, compass, brush items, toilet paper, sanitizer, tyvek sheet, head light ...... etc for quick access. Also bottom two side packets for 2 water bottles. Middle portion left for Sleeping mat, 4-5 days of food, water bladder, cloths and few misc. troop gear and other items. I carried around 45-50lbs without any issue. Draw strings were good. This helped me to organize better and avoid attaching lot of hanging/dangling items outside of the bag. Definitely I recommend this Teton backpack. ... show more

    • Budget Friendly Backpack
Color: Olive Size: 75L - 2022 Model
I purchased the Teton Sports Explorer 75L backpack for a 12 day trek at Philmont Scout Ranch. The bag performed really well, especially considering it was $200 less than most of the options at the retail camping store. The torso length was easy to adjust for my 5'11" inch frame. I wear size 34 pants, and the hip belt still had a little more room to tighten. It does lack some of the adjustments of the more expensive bags, but once you get the fit right, it is very comfortable. This bag was large enough for all my gear and additional crew gear. The side "water bottle" pockets were a little tight, I could only fit one SmartWater bottle in each, however, I was able to put two more in the sleeve behind the pocket on the back of the backpack. The sleeping bag compartment was large enough to fit the Teton Sports LEEF Zero Degree sleeping bag. The included rain cover worked great at keeping things dry, but it was a little small especially when fully loaded. I'd suggest purchasing a larger cover if you are going to being using the full 75L capacity. ... show more

    • Good value
Color: Ocean Size: 75L - 2022 Model
I like the price. It has multiple adjustment points making it a versatile and comfortable pack. It has multiple storage pockets. It has a space for a water bladder, however I prefer to carry water bottles. I need to either take the pack off or get someone else to remove the water bottle from the side pouch. ... show more

    • Love this backpack
Color: Huckleberry Size: 65L - 2022 Model
I loved all the pockets on the outside. I carried a 70oz water bladder, two 20oz water bottles, snacks, first aid, clothes, sleeping bag, etc which weighed 20-25 lbs depending on how much water. I carried this bag across the Presidential Traverse in NH for 13 hours in one day. It held up well and I have NO complaints. ... show more
