πŸ’¬ Reviewers Have Said

  • "Brought this not that long ago and it's brilliant. It's a handy bag for a day trip. With hidden pockets and big space. It fits everything you need for a day trip"
  • "Bought this pack specifically for a day tramp and it was perfect.. Very comfortable, lightweight. Love having the hip strap pockets for ease of access to snacks, camera, etc and the main pack had ample room even with a full water bladder for everything else"
  • "My load is: 4-5 Litres of water, waterproof jacket and overpants, cotton jacket, heavy winter gloves, hat or beanie, snacks, lunch, and my ERB. Occasionally thermals too. This is for mountain hikes that last 4-8 hours, that's my jam.It's comfy, fits all my stuff, and the pockets are great. Each side pocket gets a 1.5-liter water bottle, each hip pocket gets Muesli bars. The straps noticeably take the weight off of the shoulders."
