A featherweight option for fast-and-light hikes or day trips when minimalism matters most.
Gregory says:
The Nano 14 is your perfect weekend sidekick, ready for quick hikes and city adventures. With its large drawstring closure, this no-fuss pack is ideal for easily stashing your gear. Plus, the quick-access front zippered pocket keeps your smaller items organized and within reach.
Our Verdict
The Gregory Nano 14 sits nicely on the shoulders and barely tips the scale at 352g, making it a solid pick for short outings where you pack the essentials and little else. I appreciate the clean profile, breathable back panel, and the reflective webbing, which is a subtle but thoughtful touch. The grab handle feels well-made and useful when slinging it around on the go.
However, I’ve got to be honest—the quick-pull drawstring is not for me. It’s the only way in or out of the main compartment, so I wouldn't use this as a commute or travel pack, as I don't feel it's secure enough. I’d prefer a traditional top zip or clasp buckle for peace of mind. Also worth noting: no bottle pocket, which I suppose is part of the stripped-down ethos, but I did miss it on longer walks.
If you’re after a simple, low-profile pack that won’t weigh you down, the Nano 14 does tick many boxes—just be aware of its limitations.
Light, breathable, and unfussy—ideal for short missions when every gram counts.
