From the manufacturer

SINCE 1977

Our founder, Wayne Gregory was born with a simple passion to design backpacks he could trust on the most ambitious of life adventures. He did this by pioneering new suspension systems with a relentless attention to anatomical fit that works with your body instead of against it.

MAKERS AT HEART

Our packs are designed with hand-crafted prototypes made by skilled artisans at our headquarters in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Gregory Zulu Backpacks

Ventilated, adjustable with dynamic FreeFloat suspension to keep you balanced and comfortable.

The Men's Zulu features a body-hugging, customizable suspension that actively flexes with your body’s natural movement on the trail. The FreeFloat suspension is the ultimate combination of dynamic fit, lightweight features and streamlined silhouettes that deliver an incredibly balanced and agile carry. On-the-go water bottle access, full body U-zip panel access, and Open Air moisture wicking ventilation provide convenience and comfort no matter where your next adventure takes you.

FreeFloat ventilated suspension featuring the 3D comfort cradle hipbelt with dynamic flex panels that move with the natural movements of your body.
Dual layer bottom panel for added durability
Front U-Zip opening for easy access to the main compartment without removing the top pocket.

Took this pack on a two night trio in the Tetons. Really liked it! I have the ZULU 30 as well, and like that one just as much. I believe the suspension is every bit as good as osprey and the hip belt hugs you very nice and has great storage. I tried on a bunch of packs at local outfitters and wasn't really impressed that much by anything. Then I saw that I could get the ZULU in larger sizes and jumped on it. Don't regret it at all.

This is more of a long distance pack or serious trail pack in case you are stranded in forest

Comfortable to carry, fits my broad shoulders, wish it had slightly more room in the waist band

Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2021

Verified Purchase

I'm a big guy - 6'4", 280 pounds and classic dad bod with more around the middle than I wish I had. This fits well for my broad shoulders, is comfortable and adjustable. I like it. My only real wishes for it were that it had more individual pockets/compartments (because I like to have stuff organized instead of stuffed) and that it had a more accommodating waistband for my size, which is hard to find.

Amazing backpack. Packaging great, product was handled well. Backpack works really well for my long torso and extremely comfortable. Not suitable for an overnight, get the larger version.

Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2020

A lightweight pack with good suspension. My third Gregory pack as I’ve always liked the comfort and adjustments. I’m not completely happy with the adjustable frame as it uses a velcro pad to move the shoulder straps up or down based on torso length. When picking It up by the straps to put it back on the velcro pad comes and has to be readjusted. Another issue is the sternum strap pulls free from the shoulders straps when adjusting. Easy to put back on because it comes off so easily. Sadly the strap made it back from two trips but is somewhere on the Art Loeb trail now. The water bottle pockets are also too far back and pack has to be removed to access these.

Not as described, I received Small size not MD/LG

Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2020

I contacted seller and nobody responded. Zulu is running on smaller size and don't recommend somebody with wide shoulder. Price was right and I was hoping I will receive what I order.
