Testers loved the Sage 45 for its back panel, which perfectly fits the lumbar spine. It felt just as good loaded up or cinched down, so it’s versatile enough for everything from a light overnighter to a long day hike. Features like a discreet rain-cover pocket and a burly outer pocket for stuffing layers are handy without adding too much weight. 3.1 lbs
