Great video! I have both the Zulu 40 and the 30 too (both in the Small/Medium size). A couple of comments: As far as I can tell, the frame size of both is the same. Both measure 22” tall (yes, I’m in the U.S.; that converts to 55.88 cm). The difference in the 40 is that the bag rises above this so that it is taller if fully packed. However, if you don’t pack it completely full, the 40 meets the 22” size requirement for airline overhead compartments, and thus can be used as a carry on (in case anyone out there is wondering). My Zulu 40 has a key chain in the pocket located underneath the brain. This is also the rain cover pocket on the 40. I use mine in the Mediterranean in summer, so like you I leave the rain cover at home. This makes the rain cover pockets great for small items, as you mentioned. Best wishes!

using the water bladder makes most use of space (being able to flat pack 2-3L of water) frees up both side pockets for other things. Folded up over trousers fit nicely into the bladder compartment to. Osprey have the under/over side compression straps to,make them bother unders if jamming side pockets with other stuff. Having had a few no name 25L clamshell type backpacks,i dont feel clamshells can be filled to the top. I just got an osprey talon 33 in small/medium size that is infact 31L size 870g. Nice series of viseos on backpacks,interested on your thoughts of the talon range if you considered them. Good show keep it up.

Haha I thought I was the only one who bought similar looking packs and hid them in the closet to keep the wife from knowing. Your secret is safe with me.

Great video, also the video comparing it to the Osprey is very good. I'm considering a small pack and came down to the Deuter Futura 26, Mystery Ranch Scree 32 and the Gregory Zulo 30. Any advise about the other two would be great.

Nice review. I saw your review on the Gregory 40. After trying several packs at stores a bunch of times, Gregory Zulu fit me best, I was able to try the 30 and 40 and I just ordered a 35 from Gregory. Looking forward to trying it out on the trail. I’m already considering getting a smaller pack maybe 18 L or so from Gregory and yeah I’m not saying anything!

I've got the Zulu 35 and love it. Very versatile and it fit better than the Osprey Stratos which rubbed my shoulder blade badly.

I'm curious if you noticed much difference with the black color making the bag and/or its contents warmer than your other packs. I'm in an area with hot summers. I appreciate your feedback.

@@evacoutdoors5867 Thanks for the reply. I was thinking it might make a difference with bottles of drinking water, food, and electronics. I would use the pack to carry some camera gear. I grabbed photos of the different colors available from Gregory's website, desaturated them to make them black and white, and compared how truly different they are in terms of light/dark (without the distraction of bright colors). The black is definitely the darkest, but is a lot closer to the blue than you might expect.

It’s an odd shape. I sold it and kept the 40 as it was the same back size.
