Reasons to buy

  • The laptop sleeve has a false bottom to protect it from sudden drops.
  • Has a good amount of functional organization that will keep things organized during travels.
  • Covered by Patagonia's Ironclad Guarantee (lifetime.)
  • Lightweight and comfortable to use.

Things to consider

  • The laptop sleeve could use some more padding.
  • The external pocket is hard to reach when the bag is carried and it is awkward to use because of its opening.
  • Could use some pockets that don't take up space from the main compartment.

What reviewers said

  • "Very simple yet stylish backpack. I use this for school and work and it fits all my material! Also luckily very easy to clean/disinfect since I work in the medical field!"
  • "This Patagonia backpack is replacing an Osprey backpack I've had for quite a while. Finding one that fits right is a challenge. This backpack fits well and holds all I want to carry for the day."
  • "Love the organization of this super comfy pack. It's sized right for a full day at the office or a day pack for travel with lots of room and great organization. Maybe the best casual daypack I've ever owned!"

The Patagonia Refugio is a solid, fully-featured casual daypack. It shines for daily use, whether traveling, commuting, running errands, and the like. But it also works just fine on the trail and in the mountains so long as your objectives aren’t particularly technical.
