I own and use the 58L Paragon and have tested it on the AT in Georgia. So far, I am very happy. I wanted to like the Osprey packs with the AG suspension, but they never felt right on me. I think they are for narrower framed people. The Paragon felt right in the store with a load and that feeling has carried through on the trail. It’s lighter than the Osprey (almost 5 pounds) at 3-1/2 pounds and that’s before you remove the hydration sleeve/day pack and the lid/brain. My phone fits in the hip belt pocket, but I do wish they were bigger. I’d prefer daisy chains on the shoulder straps over the sunglasses holder. Otherwise, it has met my expecrations. It’s not an ultralight pack, but it is light for a full-featured pack that can carry a week’s worth of supplies itch an impressive suspension system. Also, the lumbar pad sticks to your lower back as intentioned and helps keep the load on your hips.
