Why it's buy-it-for-life
Owners are drawn to the ballistic nylon construction and well-thought-out compartment layout, though some report the ballistic nylon coating can degrade and flake with age.
What owners say
The original poster praises the daypack's size, compartment layout (one main, one secondary, two front pockets), and ballistic nylon material after buying a Japan-exclusive colorway. A separate commenter with a roughly 3-year-old ballistic nylon Gregory daypack reports the material has started flaking black micro-pieces, and that a Gregory store employee in Ginza said this degradation cannot be repaired and "hints that this happens quite a lot," though they note the bag is otherwise still good.

The size and design first caught my eye. It was the perfect size, and has the right amount of compartments (1 main, 1 secondary and 2 front ones). Material is ballistic nylon.
It's also one of the ballistic nylon series... it was simply degradation and could not be repaired hints that this happens quite a lot.
