Super lightweight and the fabric is durable too, after some beatings from rocks and branches it is still holding up very well. I have had heavier bags with thick fabric but they don't last as long. I can carry this comfortably with up to ~10kg load. Also packs small which is a big plus if you have limited storage space for your gears.
I wore this backpack on many trips now and I like it. It's light, but still has good support and is fairly comfortable. But I think the rolled portion can be smaller since you won't be able to use it anyway. This backpack can't carry a lot of weight or it gets uncomfortable, so all this volume is probably gonna be wasted unless you carry several sleeping bags or something else that is big and light.
Used this pack on a 5 night through hike. It shaved off so much weight from my previous pack and did not lack on comfortability or ease of use. The top brain converts to a Fanny pack that can be used for smaller day hikes or side missions too which was super handy.
I did 50+ miles over 3 days with this pack on the Appalachian trail and I never had any issues with it. It held ~20 pounds very comfortably. Highly recommended.
I have an Osprey Exos 58. It's great, but causes some discomfort in the hips and shoulders, and is difficult to get to fit correctly. This pack is lighter, feels more delicate, but is somehow more comfortable to carry with the same load. My only negative is that the front pocket mesh is far more flimsy than on the Osprey. I had a stake poke a small hole in it on the very first outing. I've since patched it with Tenacious Tape, and will no longer put anything even slightly pointed in the front pocket, but it really should be more durable.
Overall, a great buy. I hope Drop makes more of these so that others can get in on it.
I've taken the pack out twice so far in 2021. Both were only overnighters, but I did about 14 miles on each with an elevation gain of about 1200 feet. I had to make minor adjustments as I hiked along, but I got it dialed in pretty quick. It was comfortable and easy to manage. Some of the straps are really long and I'll need to shorten them. Having the lid be fully detachable was great, I used it as my hang bag. I'm looking forward to doing legs of the PCT and JMT this year, and this pack will make much easier to do.
