Iron Oxide in XXL - 4XL is the only men's color and size available for the discounted price.

Raisin is available in 1X - 4X for women's bag

Edit: I ordered the women's bag and will return my 30L I purchased in August. There are features about the 40L I prefer. Also, REI has a full year to return in case it doesn't work out.

Thanks, OP!

very good deal on a well made pack. As long as you are ok with the colors. This is similar to Osprey 40 liter pack. It has lots of features and padded hip belt....I do not own one, but I tried one on in the store about 6 months ago.

Well made bag, spacious main compartment. I found it more comfortable than my older version Osprey Farpoint 40. It's too bad the discount only applies to the XXL.
