Pros :
Well built. Inexpensive. Lots of great features. Adjustable Good warranty. Nicely padded. Includes a rain cover
Cons :
Heavy. That is my biggest complaint with this pack. Since it is more a budget pack, the weight goes up.
Review :
I’ve had this pack for 6 years and it continues to perform very, very well for me and I paid $55 for it.
Was it worth $55? Absolutely! Is it worth a $100? I believe so. This is a terrific pack for those who are on a limited budget or those who are testing the waters when it comes to backpacking.
With a 30lbs loadout I find this pack very comfortable. As you drop down in weight it becomes even more so.
My brother bought one of these 3 years ago and it has served him well too. No issues to report.
For this price, this is an amazing backpack and 5 years later, I continue to use it.

This backpack survived a month long backpacking trip across Sri Lanka. Still one of my favorites!. Love TETON Sports!.
After watching your review I purchased it for my Tioga West Rim Trail hike and I have to say the backpack performed superbly. I was carrying 60 lbs load (I know way too much) and rained so had to use the rain cover that comes with it. This backpack is a keeper. Thanks for the review.
Nah that's about the right amount. 40 for most, 60 if you stronger or hiking thru desert without much water spots.
Just picked this up on Amazon after doing research and also seeing your glowing review. Thanks Luke!
With all the obscure packs you like to test it's nice to see some affordable, available gear.
I got this pack as a present years ago and never used it. Now that I'm getting prepared to go on my first backpacking trip this video was super helpful in understanding the features and quality. Thank you!
Hell yeah! Made up my mind for me on this backpack! Thank you. I own and have used Teton's 5+ mummy-style sleeping bag and am absolutely happy with it. I've used it a good 10-15 times and I have to say it's always performed, even in the snow so I'm happy to be picking up another Teton product! Safe adventures to all!
Amazon Canada just had the Scout 3400 on for $39 flash sale so I bought one. Regular price is $118 up to $180 depending on seller. Great video thanks
Look brand new for 100s of miles. Great video, I'm really considering getting this.
I would buy a used car from you definitely.
Lol.
48$ on amazon right now
I am so happy I found out you reviewed this! I have been dying to get into backpacking but didn't know if these were good quality or if I should go a little more expensive. Thank you!
Well, the only problem for me is that in french, Teton literally means "nipple".
I just can't afford that !
In Spanish means a guy with fat titties
Are you telling me there is a national park called the Grand Nipple?
@@jottrn2359 Haha I just read that it's precisely the name that gave french explorers to those mountains ! You're welcome :D
This comment is gold
@@kevingranda4549 Jajaja me lo ganaste
Not gonna lie, at first I was kind of put off by his review style, but now that I've watched the whole video, I feel like I know everything I need to know about this backpack. Solid review, man.
I own this pack and I love it!!! Def recommend
do you think this Teton sports hiking bag would be big enough to hike the Appalachian trail with
Glad to see you spoke good of this pack I bought a green one many years ago and it sit in the closet up until 2020 when the hiking bug hit it also came with a supply list of stuff you don't want to forget really like it.
I bought this pacl 2 years ago, it has performed Great, have not had a issue with it, one of favorites,
Wants up Luke! I have this in green and love how it can be almost custom fit. I tend to overload backpacks sometimes but this one is sturdy enough to handle it but maintain comfort.
Just bought this in green. You should do sales. So far I have my lightfighter 1 tent and now my TETON backpack based on your reviews.
I have this pack in green and love it! I have never taken it overnight, but have taken it for long day trips and it was fairly comfortable.
I just bought this one direct from Teton in tan for 50 plus $10 shipping. I didn't get a chance to open it yet, but I'm excited to check it out.
Perfect video! I appreciate how you have a second can showing a close up of the backpack. Very detailed and I can actual see what youre talking about. It is a beautiful bag, and I might just get it now!
I have this pack and have used it alot. Have to say its a keeper. I bought it before I saw this review, but am glad it got a great review. I had about 50+ lbs in my last hike and it did very well. Great pack for the money.
I have been looking for a good pack as I begin my foray into the backcountry of British Columbia. I saw this on Amazon.ca and then saw your video and just ordered it. Only $67 Cdn!!! So stoked! Can’t wait to receive it and test it out! Thanks for your review 😊
Currently, there is a woman who is taking her 13, of 15, biological children on a Thru-Hike of the Appalachian Trail. Yes, she has 15 biological children from the same marriage...they are a wonderful family. The other two children join them on trail at times...one has done a lot behind the scenes for logistics and planning. Her oldest is 25 and youngest is 4 years old...and yes, the 4 year old is on trail and has been phenominal...they all have.
The reason I write this, I imagine you'd realize when you are outfitting 16 people (Mom and kids), BUDGET MINDED is definitely a factor...but so is having QUALITY gear to last for a 2,193 mile Thru-Hike adventure of the AT.
Nikki, the Mom, reached out to Teton Sports in initial planning of this journey and Teton Sports stepped up and took excellent care of this family...outfitting them all with backpacks and were great at following up and making certain everyone had the type and colors of backpacks they wanted. They reported, at 600 miles into the trip that they had ZERO issues with the backpacks...and, to my knowledge, that is still the case.
And how is the family doing? I believe they began this trek, at the beginning point in Georgia (NOBO) in May of this year...they just completed the White Mountains range in Vermont ! They are closing in on Maine and I believe they have less than 200 miles to go !
This may be sacrilege, the sleeping compartment will be holding 4L of milk(thats how they sell bulk milk up here in Canada, 3 individual bags of 1.33L each)The rest will be other groceries.
Place the weight on the hips rather than the hands with bags. Since I’ll be using this weekly for grocery shopping, glad to hear it’s durable
I've got the green one, paid $60 with free shipping. the pack rides light for being heavy.
Love the video reviews Luke. Purchased this pack. First beginner trip is in 2 weeks. 😊👍
Looks like a great pack. Kinda reminds me of my pack, a High Peak Pocatello 70L. I will have to keep this one in mind for sure for a second pack. Thanks for the review Luke. Really enjoying the channel and your passions for the outdoors. Keep up the great work. Strength and Honor my friend.
Bought my green pack through offer up for $50. Cleaned it and was basically still new. Have used it ever since for my trucking job on the road and also when I go through my travels. It's compartments are on point, great size. Once you get used to the pack it becomes almost a part of you and you know it and how to use it like the back of your hand. Always recommend this bag to fellow drivers. Great review. Maybe do an updated review of the same pack?
Hi Luke, awesome review, a very great pack, I have the Teton Explorer4000, I'm also waiting for the Grand5500 to be delivered, very excited to receive it. -Jake
Just purchased from Amazon Hunter Green 75.00, the price is just incredible for what it offers. Your review did help immensely in my decision making. Some have complained on comfort and adjustability, seeing you use this thing several times I am convinced its just a great deal. Not too many more pieces to gather to get back outside, yay!
I was able to purchase the pack in Coyote tan back in 2020 on Amazon for $49. The price seems to drop way down once in a while but even at $80 this is a bargain pack.
@@mdbigman It is feature rich to be sure, only been out once with it but that will change. For the money I am very happy with it.
@@ForeIndication Same here, for a heavy pack, it is very comfortable and as you said, .. feature rich. The only issue I have had is with the "Back Length Adjustment" Velcro tab. I have had this Velcro tab come undone quite often when I lift the loaded pack up by one of its shoulder straps. Because of this, I tend to lift the pack up by the "drag loop" on the top of the pack while I put my arms through the shoulder straps. Once it is on, I don't have any issues.
Great review. Thinking about purchasing this pack based upon your review. Thanks!!
Thanks for the review! I’m buying coyote brown one for my birthday
I have the Teton 4300 in green and love it. Got it Sportsman's Warehouse here in Reno, NV.
Looks like something for a starter like me. All the products that I've tried out on y'alls recommendations have turned out great. 😀 Thanks for the review.
These are good starting packs for scouts. Economical and gives options for securing items to the outside. New campers tend to have bulky gear and this one has many multiple options options to carry everything.
thanks for the review...been interested in this pack and it helps.
Your reviews are awesome. I was considering the amazon backpack very seriously and your review echoed what I was seeing on line. I opted for the Teton scout in tan and love it.
Yup, better than the amazon basics one. You def right
I am so glad I bought this pack it felt really comfy when I put it on and the material I think is better than some of the more expensive packs because of the nylon it seems very durable and there's tons of space to put everything an average hiker like me is going to need for a day or two out on the trail
Very nice review Luke. I just upgraded to the 4000, from the scout 3400. These are great packs for the price. Especially for younger, or beginner hiker/campers.
I've had mine for a few years and it handled it well. The only thing that broke was the waistbelt clip and that is because I slammed it in my car door.
i purchased the orange because i liked the look of it more. Then i went backpacking in a hunting area and just kept the rain cover on while hiking and was even more happy to have a bright orange pack! i like the green as well, but I'm happy with the orange just for hunting areas i backpack in.
Did you have any issues with the zippers breaking? Some of the reviews on Amazon said the zippers broke.
Kevin P nope. Still going on strong. No issues with that pack at all. And I don't take care of my gear as well as Luke here does. I bang my stuff around pretty good.
Thank you for your reply. I am thinking of getting this backpack but was worried about the zippers breaking as mentioned in some reviews.
Just don't overstuff the pack and you should be fine. I have a problem now of filling it up properly. As I have progressed I realize I need less and less gear. Some people need more and opt for a bigger pack to replace this one. Just depends on your style.
Love the quality of your vids. An essential step for any piece of gear that I research includes looking at your channel for a review on it. I'm actually a little disappointed that there is almost no chance that I'll purchase this pack. I got a killer deal on a good pack.
I also own this backpack. In the green. I must agree, for just $60 from Amazon it's a really awesome backpack.
The sleep bag compartment is not big enough to put a sleeping bag. You have to unzip it in the main pouch in order to get the sleeping bag to fit.
Great review Luke nice to have a low cost option that still has all the bells and whistles!
Just ordered one from Amazon
Yall see that demon float across the screen at 1:43
Lmao
I saw it too! 👻
its just a bug!
Great video review. Did you have any issues with the zippers breaking? I noticed during your review video that one of the pocket zipper was open the entire time.
Found out a Go-Kot regular size will fit inside this backpack vertically, if needed, and if you unzip the sleeping bag compartment at the bottom to make it taller.
Loved this video! I've been using a much bigger Belgian ruck sack and I am looking to down size! I'm 6'4" and 225#. I believe this will work! Thanks!
Much to new looking for 6 years old. but nice review. Thanks.
I take good care of my gear, it costs too much not too.
- Luke
Great review. Very thorough and useful as always. Thanks.
You're welcome Stephen. Have a good one.
- Luke
I own the Fox 75+10 Teton Sports and love it!
That ant flick 😂😂😂
Just picked this up for my son for scouts.
I just bought the 65l version same color on Amazon was 89 but still I think incredible value
Appreciate the solid review. Adding to the amazon wishlist.
Looks like a GREAT Pack... Hey luke... Where is the coffee ? lol I got mine ! Thumbs up as always... peace
Those are very nice, a couple of my sons fellow scouts have it in green. It definitely covers all bases.
Luke,
Trying to decide between the scout and the explorer 4000. I am over 6 feet tall and I am worried that the scout will be too small and some of the reviews on the explorer 4000 were not so pleasant. Any suggestions?
Nice review Luke, thanks!
I have the Hiker 3700...priced pretty close and a bit lighter...these are really good packs for this price point...
now, this is how a review is done... how I wish people would do reviews like this. nowadays is more about showing off ...
Thanks. Great review I am getting the same one.
I’m just here for the fly at 4:31 ;)
It's a old video but I'm interested on the brand. I do have still a very old Kelty backpack (Tornado 4000). Teton makes affordable packs when you dont have a high budget.
I have that backpack. I used it on my 3 day back packing trip. I wish the side pockets were bigger.
Forget to mention. I have video on my channel where I'm using this backpack, on backpacking trip
No pockets on the waist straps. Besides that and the weight, it looks like a great option.
I own a 4000 version. Awesome pack.
I found the green one used locally in great shape. $40 CAD
I got this back pack at a garage sale for $4 😂🙌🏼
Seems exactly the same at the mountain warehouse peru pack 55L side pockets are better though. Looks great and great bang for the Buck.
I want to take this backpack to travel trough Europe (the inexpensive way) next year, I'm a 5'2 girl, do you think this is a good fit for me?
10/10 review I’m buying this baddie 😩
This pack is around the same weight as many of the Osprey packs of the same capacity for much less than half the price and the Osprey packs do not have the extra pockets nor some of the other features, both have the same warranty
Good review, this is what I want to see, someone actually wearing and using the item.
Hey man thanks you seem to have experience and thorough reviews
I was thinking about picking this up for the winter season
Great review Luke, nice looking pack.
I have the 6400 version. Very comfortable, hope to see it you out on the trail with your 3400.
That would be awesome my friend.
ATB
- Luke
A reversible OD and orange-sided pack-cover would be awesome, albeit I've never seen a pack with one.
I bought the Teton 5200 for friends to use who didn't have a winter pack and it was the most uncomfortable pack I ever owned. Never again will I own anything by Teton Sports.
Really nice pack for the price. I'm curious how the stitching was.?
Very good, I personally haven't had any issues.
- Luke
I almost go cheaper and buy the amazon basics one, thanks for doing these reviews man!
finally glad you did a review. I requested you review it a long time ago and since I've bought it took a chance and got the green one but yes very heavy but it's still a really great pack for 50 bucks. looking for a lighter weight but still affordable pack so do you have any suggestions?? thx!!!!!!
exactly like my Amazon basics 75lts
Very cool backpack, Luke :) p.s would love to see the bushcraft backpacks that you have
Maybe a dumb question, but I got a really good deal on one of these and it is super nice. Looking at it as a BOB scenario this or USMC pack. What would you choose?
Excellent review, thank you!
I'm 6'1. I've heard that the maximum height you can be to wear this is 5'9. is that true?
Luke, nice review, backpack, keep the good work up.
Thank you very much Yogi!
- Luke
Awesome review Thank you Liked and Subscribed
Love the dramatic twirl at the start!
PS Keep your day job
Thanks for the review of something less expensive.
Hi Luke. You do an excellent job reviewing packs. I was wondering if you might review the Ozark Trail 65L Stavern Backpack? I bought it for $68 and it seems to have most of the features the Teton backpack has. For example: 65L, adjustable torso length, made of nylon (is it rip stop ???), hydration compatible, comes with a separate sleeping bag compartment, comes with rain cover, has two hip belt pouches, chest strap, weight approx 4 pounds. Ok, now here is the bad part, I bought it from Walmart. Anyway, I love your reviews and I love your honesty. Thanks in advance.
Preferably Stephen anything from Walmart won’t last you a year and is going to be torture if your going hiking really far (20 mi) for your first trip it might be ok, but you will want to get something from rei later on
For a beginner that is looking for a pack for overnight hiking/camping with a medium sized dog, would the 3400 meet my needs or should I upgrade to the TETON Explorer 4000 (thoughts)?
I have a waist size of 36 . Will this bag work good for me luke ? I am really inclined towards this bagpack after watching Thai review of yours !
I just bought the scout 3400 from Amazon for $66. I am new to backpacking and it seemed like a good choice. This was a good review of the product. Do you have any videos on how to pack the 3400?
Funny you are doing a review of this pack. I have one and I love it. However I have just contacted Teton over the weekend. The adjustable length adjustment Velcro has worn out after only 60 miles of AT hiking. So, when picking up the pack by the shoulder strap the Velcro on the length adjustment comes loose and disengages from the main pack. Frustrating. I am anxiously awaiting a call from Teton.
Just bought this pack and I like it very much but not sure how you have it in such good condition after 6 years. The pack I am replacing in 3 years old and shows its age!
NAustinFL good observation
Any issues with the zippers breaking?
I’m a little skeptical about the use or time that he has had it. Absolutely no fade in the colors at all?
