I own an unbound 40. Happy to have this pack. ❤

It’s my favorite so far !

I have the sw3400 and the windrider 2400. They were good packs but I’ve moved to ultra packs instead.

[@iceman857]

I own the SouthWest because I do a lot of bushwhacking. I still to this day don't understand why they put a water bladder holder in. I wonder if ANYONE actually uses it?

[@BackcountryRenegade]

Haha yep I’ve never used it. In Much of their newer packs are getting rid of it

I never seen anyone use it. Thanks for the video.
