Bought one of their Approach Dog Packs couple weeks ago. Really impressed with the quality. Wears well on my Boxer.
I previously had had a Ezydog summit pack, which was not nearly as nice and was not impressed at all - did not wear well on my boxer, so replaced.
If you are looking for a good pack for your dog, this is the way to go.
I went with the camp orange color which is pretty nice, not a bright orange.
For now Hank just wears the pack, and maybe if a longer hike a small water bottle, some treats, and a small collapsable bowl. Mr. Hank seems to be getting use to it and likes the pack. Plus, another advantage, as the temps is getting very cold (in the 30s in the early morning! It gives him a little extra warmth). Hank is one year old now, over 70 pounds, pure muscle and very strong - so he handles it pretty good. But, I do not put much weight in the pack still. This pack allows him a good range of motion also, he has no problem running at flu speed when he needs to. Also, with the pack you do not need a neck collar - as the pack has a place to attach a leash, thus essentially becoming a chest harness rig.

(Pic is not my dog, just one taken off the internet to show the pack)
