Equinox has been making ultralight silnylon backpacks for years. Their newest pack is the ARAS Eagle (I don't know what ARAS stands for), which has three distinctive features: a top pocket, a front bungie compression system, and a stiff mesh backpanel. Actually, the pack is loaded with features, as listed in the specifications table below. Unfortunately it only comes in one size (Medium) that fits torsos 17 to 19 inches (43 to 48 cm). If the pack fits you, and you like the feature set, then this may be the pack for you.

Equinox ARAS Eagle Backpack Review
There are no pictures showing the front waist belt as buckled.
Don't like that. But I like the features. A few zippered areas to put small things like car key, SteriPen, long-handled spoon, first aid, and survival is pretty cool.
It looks to only fit much shorter users though. So, good for some but it seems to be missing allot of the market because of just one smaller size (even if they say its medium).
