Kelty Rain Cover

Well, its a cover to prevent rain from soaking your gear, and it works. The fit is good, and the mesh storage pouch is handy to keep the cover in its place when not deployed.

I would like to add the size recommendation by Kelty, they recommend Medium for pack of 3000 cu/inches and less, and Large for packs over 3000 cu/inches.

I have a Red Cloud 6650 and the cover fits great. No major folds or "valleys" to collect water that could add unnecessary weight, run down into the pack, and most importantly no water will be splashing down the back of my neck. I definately recommend having one in your backpack at all times, you never know when Mother Nature will throw you a curve ball.

Pretty good quality. Easy to pack when not used. Foldable into a small pouch that comes along with the cover. Light weight. if you are looking for a good quality product, this will not let you down.

Its good, but very expensive. I came to know from my friends there are a lot of cheaper and better options, very importantly SIZE [http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001A47T3G?ie=UTF8&tag=mama0f-20&creativeASIN=B001A47T3G].

Despite the good quality, I am giving this 4 stars for the price factor.

I have a Kelty Redwing 3100 and purchased the large size raincover. Living in Hawaii, the rain can come and go at any given moment and it's nice to have this raincover on hand. Really simple to use, just wrap it around and seal it tight with the cord. Does a really amazing job of keeping my backpack dry. I'm super impressed with Kelty products!

I got this in the mail the other day. The color is not a blue-gray like the picture but rather a deep forest green. The color wasn't an issue for me. Just a small surprise and I doubled checked that it was the right product.

I have a Kelty Redwing 50 (3100 cubic inches) so I ordered the large size though it's right at the border between the 3000 or smaller for the small and 3000 or larger for the large. I tested it out and it really seems a bit or large for the Redwing 50 (someone even made the joke that I could use it as a makeshift tent if it came down to it). I feel like there should be a medium size so the cover won't be too big nor too small of medium sized packs. I uploaded a photo of how large it can be before cinching it up which is almost double the size of the Redwing 50 ( http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/6135fyD3nNL.jpg ). It makes my pack seem a bit more bulky than it is.

In a month, I plan on using this rain cover backpacking and hiking in Korea during the rainy season with heavy rain and typhoons and I'll update my review on how it holds up.

This cover works perfectly. It fits over your bag and allows you to pull it tight. If you adjust the string, the only part of your bag that will be exposed is the straps. Nothing will get wet. The water bounces right off of the cover. It has slits in the cover to let the straps come through. If you plan on using your bag in rainy weather, this is the bag for you. No doubt BUY this cover.
