Great pack well made , love everything but the mesh pockets. Also wish the hydration pockets were a bit deeper. But other than that , would recommend

Really love the pack. Great quality and am looking to buy another one.

I have yet to use this on a hike, however first impression is very solid. I was using a mountainsmith pack of roughly the same size, and loved it. The Destroyer appears to be even better than my favorite pack of the last five years. More side pockets make little things like my jet boil and bottles accessible on the outside very convenient. The ability to either use or stow the compartmentalized interior is nice. My one complaint is the water pouch is more suited for the two liter not the three liter I purchased. Aside from that one con, this pack is by far my favorite.

I knew it was going to be big.... I put my entire Clark Hammock tent sleep system/shelter it in along with the hammock air pads, under quilt, and pillows etc... Probley throw in a jet boil and freeze dried meals to have a quick grab and go bag for camping....

Its not my first Eberlestock bag and probley won't be the last....

Wish I could have snagged the "dry earth" but the grey looks really good...

Perfect

Received pack in time for week-long camp trip. Capacity and then some. Own other eberlestock packs and accessories. Good quality. Very flexible for different setups. Almost to the point of confusion. Be nice to have references for features and options. They are doing better on that with some of their video clips.

I ordered the destroyer for the BWCA, and future hunting trips. I actually ordered the wrong bag, I wanted more space. No need! This flippin bag was so comfortable to carry, and I rucked like 5 objects on the outside. Just using the straps for tightening down to hold on to junk. 75lbs like nothing. I’m 6’4” 230lbs.
Back was super supported, the bag stayed mostly dry and when it got wet from paddling or rain, it would dry in nearly no time. I love it, I love this company, and I’m already prepping to purchase a non-tactical looking EDC.

This pack is built like a tank. It's definitely not a lightweight backpacker style pack, but it seems like it's built to last. Plenty of room to haul a week's worth of supplies easy.

Love my pack systems from these guys. I have everything I need from hunting with the vapor series and F1 main to the tactical or med side with my destroyer and battleship which also do well for hunting and backpacking. Couldn’t be happier with these products. Salmon river pant fits perfect and light for my up coming early season archery hunt.

After doing countless hours of backpack research, I settled on the Destroyer for its classic mountain bag style with upgraded features and plenty of cinch points. I like how there is a top opening feature but it’s also accessible from the side. There is plenty of space for a sleep system, clothing, tools, and a bit of other equipment plus food and water. The frame is sturdy and strong and makes a world of difference with the lumbar support and shoulder pads. It is very comfortable to wear, even with a 30-40lb load. The Destroyer has become my new bug out bag and it sits in my truck waiting to be used. For a long distance, sturdy bag with solid construction that is meant to be abused, I can tell this bag will last for a long time.
