I bought this pack for my first ever trip to do some hiking in the Pacific Northwest...it was perfect for a weeks worth of clothes and supplies...definitely not big enough for a thru hike but, for shorter over nights and day hikes it works great...hanging on to mine til it falls apart which is no time soon from the looks of how well it did :-)

It seems sturdy and well designed.  It's not the roomiest pack but, it has plenty of different pockets to organize with so you are able to find things without emptying it.  It is comfortable...so far.  I haven't taken it on any long treks yet but, it has been quite adequate for day hikes.  I actually bought it to use as a BOB but, I think I'm going to take it into the mountains for a short three day trek to see how it works out.

I've been taking this pack on day hikes and small camping trips and it's great! I wish I got a little bigger pack but this works perfectly. It's light and comfortable to carry all day and fits all my essentials for the day.

I enjoy this light weight bag, it's good for day walks. I usually keep a water bottle and collapsible dog bowl along with some snacks in it.. maybe a second beverage too.  Small zippered pocket is good to keep smaller items you want separate.  Strap comes across belly I'm 5'10 and I don't mind it. The strap stabalizes the shoulder strap if you tighten it right, so having one shoulder strap is okay for hiking, tho when it's loose I worry about the shoulder strap slipping like any backpack on one shoulder feels.  It's a pretty cool design and works great for when I don't want to carry my large backpacking backpack and just want minimalist sash.

Packs small, holds a decent amount but the shoulder straps cut in after a whole day at the park.

This is a nice, light duty backpack. Would I go busting through the wilderness with it? No. Would it make a great backpack for walk through a park or day on the beach? Yes. I bought this a backpack so I could collapse it and carry it on vacation in my larger carry on and use it for day trips from the resort. Works great for its intended purpose.

Perfect for a day hiking pack, when you want to sit down to eat and the ground is wet, it keeps your bum dry.  Folds up easily.

ive had this pack for years now and its held up through thick and thin. it still amazes me with its durability. this bag has been through some serious abuse. a good bag for a day trip. not built for comfort pertaining to the neck and lower back. tough as nails. worth the money

This is a great light, day pack, that can easily be packed in suit case or other larger backpack.
I bought it because there are times when I need a good back pack when traveling. Most day packs take up a lot of room in your luggage.  This pack seems light, durable and will be a great day pack to use when traveling.

This bag has many compartments it's small enough for a day in the field. The material is very strong I used this for duck and archery the only down fall was I couldn't remember where I placed items but that's not a bad thing.
This pack also has room for molle attachments.

I like this because it has a shoulder strap to  prevent it from sliding down on my butt during hiking, thats the problem with my other one that doesnt have a shoulders strap. I can carry my dry food,portable stove,fire starter,first aid kit & a small water bottles on the side. I just wish the water bottle pockets were bigger other then that Im happy. Last week I use this pack during a rainy day and Im surprised how well it kept all my stuff inside the pack nicely dry. Very happy,

I was a little hesitant to order because other review made it sound like it was very large.  I did not want my hands to hit the water bottles as I was walking.  I am a male 33-34 inch waste and this pack is just fine on me.  However, my girlfriend is much smaller and when she tried it on, her arms could/would hit the side bottles.  I purchased 2 Camelbak Eddy water bottles and they fit snugly in the water bottle holders.  Pulling out and putting in the water bottles while the pack was on was easily done.  I don't foresee these bottles tumbling out of the pack when climbing some rocks.  The main pocket held my North Face rain jacket and pants rolled very tightly.  There is still enough room to hold a wallet, keys, and a few other miscellaneous items.  This is NOT a 3 day pack.  It's a shorter hike pack.  If you need any more items, you would best have a Camelbak backpack with water bladder so you could put a lot of stuff in the compartment.  That is what I have and what I do.  This pack for short hikes.  The Camelbak for day hikes and needing to carry lunch and rain gear and a fleece and other items.  The construction of this pack is surprisingly good for the money.  We will see how it holds up to hike after hike.  If any problems, I will update.  So, for the money, I would say it is a very safe bet to purchase this pack and have some fun outdoors.  BTW, this is not a running pack.

I needed a smaller pack for day hikes or trips or even a long bike ride.  I thought this would work well for those situations.  I like to have a lot of pockets so I can sort what I take with me for easy access. This pack meets the majority of my criteria.  There is even a side pocket for a water bottle.
  The only thing I wish is that it was a little longer and a little less wide at the bottom.  But other than that, it suits my needs.  I have yet to take it on a hike or a bike ride.  So only time will tell how it holds up to wear and tear.

This is quite a nice day pack for something both lightweight and affordable.  I got the red 25-L one, and the main body is quite roomy for a day hike or outing.  The main body has one pocket, the same pocket that you stuff the backpack back into to make a small pouch that has a carrying loop.  There are two side pockets, mesh with an elastic top, that are generously sized and easily carry water bottles. There is also an exterior vertical zipper that encloses a big pocket on the front.

The fabric is single-weight (not lined) but sturdy.  Ripstop nylon?  The straps are lined mesh, and more comfortable that I'd expect for such a light pack.  They also adjust, and as a 5'3" woman, I adjust them pretty much all the way down.  There is no waist cinch so the bag does flop a bit if you lean to one side or the other.

Getting the whole pack back into that little pocket isn't as hard as I thought it might be, but mine does turn out a bit on the lumpy side, certainly not the smooth pack I received.  Lumpy is okay.

While lightweight and not what you want to take on an extended hike, this is great for day hikes and outings, and great to keep in the glovebox in case you feel compelled to get into the great outdoors.

I am using this as a day bag when I travel. Way nicer that a small backpack or a fanny pack. Fits your body very well. I wish the main pouch was a bit taller though.

I use this almost every day for school and have used it a few times for camping and hiking. The bag is great, seems to be water resistant, hasn't ripped or torn, and has decent space. It would definitely be good for a day hike or school, but the straps come undone easily, I find that every once and awhile the strap becomes lose and it falls off your shoulders. It's easy to fix, but annoying to deal with. Other than that it's great!
