40L Waterproof Lightweight Hiking,Camping,Travel Backpack for Men Women (Green)

Surprisingly Tough, Stylish, and Perfect for My NeedsI'm a 48-year-old guy who's spent most of his life doing hands-on, blue-collar work, and this backpack surprised the heck out of me. I originally bought it for a hiking trip with my teenage son, but now I use it for everything—from weekend camping runs to just throwing tools and gear in the back of the truck.At first, I thought the leaf pattern might be a little too colorful for me.It’s lightweight but holds up great in rough conditions—rain, dirt, even being tossed around in the bed of the truck. Plenty of pockets, zippers are solid, and the straps are comfortable even on longer hikes. Water doesn’t get through, and the capacity is no joke—it holds a lot more than I expected.If you're a regular guy like me who wants something practical, tough, and just a little different-looking (in a good way), I’d say go for it. This thing delivers.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Yellow is my favorite color.

I'm generally a user of quality packs like Jansport or Mountainsmith; I ordered this pack mostly because of its features and the floral leafy pattern. I needed a pack for a three-day high school competition; I'm a team mentor and do crafty things for the kids like costuming. Anyway, I needed something to pack a monopod, craft supplies, team giveaways, and my inflatable cushion to sit in the stands for a couple of days. This pack suited that need fairly well. Yeah, the zippers are small and, with the exception of the main pocket, only contained one zip fob. The main compartment has two so you can open and close it from either direction. The outer mesh pockets for drinks worked very well - I didn't lose any of my cups. There's a stuff pocket on the front where I put my jacket, and that has a stap to secure it. There are straps for the sides to hold hiking poles or a monopod, straps at the top and bottom for a rolled pad or bag, and side straps to cinch the entire bag down. A slightly padded waist strap with zipper pockets and a chest strap with whistle and padded back rounds off the features. I also like that there was a small pocket at the very top for my spare battery and cables, and another small pocket on the front panel for small items - all easy access.A four-star rating because it's a light duty bag; I would not take this bag on a multiday hike nor tote a full water bottle in this bag as illustrated by the seller. For the $24 I spent, it was satisfactory. I will have to see how this holds up over time as the material is not super heavy duty. I will also probably use this when we cruise for a day pack. This pack had plenty of room for all of my junk (ha-ha).

Bought this 4 years ago and it’s still going strong! Used very frequently for hiking, as a carry-on for plane trips, day bag for toddler/kids stuff, etc. It holds a ton and nothing has broken on it! Lots of compartments which is great for keeping things organized. Decent laptop sleeve. Waterproof. It’s fabulous!

MUY BUEN PRODUCTO, MUY UTIL Y COMODO

Amazing backpack! It made my trip across all Oregon super comfortable and convenient. Highly recommended, especially if you plan on doing a lot of hiking

This is the best bag I've ever had. Strong and durable through rough use. A great size and fantastic quantity of pockets and storage space. Super buy. Held up in the rain.

Size is good and pocket configuration seem good, but needs a few design upgrades. While it has a clip for a straw tube (for a water reservoir) on the shoulder strap, there is no place for the tube to come out of the backpack; you have to leave the zipper open. Makes no sense. Also, the shoulder straps are located too close together, both straps rub against the neck, which will likely cause irritation and/or chaffing after a while.
