EXPED Impulse 20 Rucksack Verdict
www.ultralightoutdoorgear.co.uk
The design of the bag makes it really comfortable for longer trips and heavier loads than you might expect. The versatile nature of the daisy chains and movable compression cord is a key part of this pack. It allows you to quickly, easily and safely attach your gear to it so you can just get on with things. I've used this for overnight trips in the summer, winter day hikes and all sorts of little adventures in town and countryside. It has all the usual features with stretch mesh pockets, inner pockets, it's hydration bladder compatible and the hip belts are removable for fast and light trips.

The streamlined aesthetics, low profile, and multiple storage options of the pack create a backpack with a high level of functionality. The pack feels well made and has held up to many trips in the outdoors. For day hikes, mountain biking, shed hunting, trail runs, and scrambling in the mountains this is a great backpack.
