This thing is more than just a hydration backpack. It's a football, a pillow, something to throw at wild animals, a carry-on for international flights.........the list goes on. I've used it for all of this and more. I bought mine just before COVID made everything so much fun. Initially, I was only going to use it for what most people might, a hydration backpack. When COVID happened, the only thing that I could (safely) do and use this with was bicycling. I had bought an additional bladder for it, just because something like that is replaceable as well as expendable. I also bought the cleaning stuff for the bladder. Although I don't use it too much, I still have it, and I've kept it very clean and stored very well. I've never had any problems with the bladder at all (no leaks), and I struggle to keep everything that I own in optimal condition. The additional bladder that I purchased is larger, but it works well.This thing has gone with me on the Appalachian Trail (no, not all of it), was my carry-on and daily backpack all through trips to Germany, the Czech Republic, Korea, and Japan (carrying everything for everybody), accompanied me throughout a few weeks in South Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, and a few other states where I just beat the crap out of it, overstuffed it well beyond it's capacity, and put it through every imaginable stress test possible. This is my go-to, especially on bike rides and hikes, and while I have a (much) more expensive backpack (that is significantly larger), this one just feels right to wear and houses the necessary stuff. I've loaded it up with both a Yeti 46 ounce and 26 ounce water bottles along with snacks, drivers license, keys, wallet, and more, and have taken it on many mile long hikes. The straps are sufficient for the load and I never feel discomfort despite having back issues. Zero tears in the fabric, even with what I put it through. If there's one (very) small thing, the insulation on the inside is getting a tiny, tiny bit worn, but not enough to warrant getting a new one. One can barely tell this, though, I have to really look at it as it's not peeling up or anything, just getting a bit worn. Honestly, this backpack should have turned to dust after a year (that was my belief). Fully able to get a good fit with the straps. I'm 5' 10", you can see the fit in the pictures.One absolute bonus, which I found is not as common as I've noticed, is the headphone jack hole or whatever it's supposed to be. During my trip to the midwest, I was able to store a back up battery charger for my phone in the front pocket of the backpack and run a long cable through this and into the shoulder strap, down to my front pocket to keep my phone charging the whole time. Worked like a charm.I would not hesitate to buy this again. I'd like to, but there really isn't a need just yet, so I'll wait it out. Highly reliable item, and it has definitely been an asset to me during my excursions. I can say that this backpack has relieved me of any stress caused by damage or failure.

Live this backpack for its smart design. Small pockets on waist straps are perfect for credit cards, money, cell phone which is 6" tall or smaller. Love the elastic cords on outside for carrying wind breaker or vest. Nice color. Sturdy good construction. Highly recommended.

Great product. I have used a camelbak for 10 years as a wildland firefighter .Was looking for a good quality pack with pockets and a decent bladder.This was over and beyond what I expected.Great pack, plenty of pockets/compartments. Insulated hose is a bonus. The fill/drain cap is well threaded, and has a good seal, no leaks. The bite cap (mouthpiece) is a little different from the camelbak, you have to pull out first , which I dont mind knowing the camelbak bitecap leaks over time. Also this one has a bitecap cover which camelbak doesn't, keeping it clean use after use. The straps on the pack are excellent, making a snug fit for running and not having the pack bouncing. Stitching and materials are MUCH better than the 20 dollar bags with a bonus insulated compartment for the water bag making a ice pack in there much more efficient. There is a hose clamp on the shoulder strap that you can put on either side, and strap the hose down and out of the way. My galaxy9 with a hardcase fit in the waist compartments, but with wireless ear budds, I packed it away in one of the dry compartments.Great product folks! Well worth spending the extra 10 bucks. Glad I found this

I have tried so many daypacks, and this one is by far the best. I have a lot of shoulder and upper-back pain, so I wanted something that buckled across my chest and waist. I also wanted something with a pocket for my phone that I could access without taking the pack off. While my iPhone 14 w/ cover technically does fit in the phone pocket (pic 4), it does not fit while wearing the pack, as the pocket sits across my hip bone, so it’s not flat. So I improvised and hiked with my phone shoved into the pocket vertically, which wasn’t the greatest, as it fell out multiple times. I subtracted a star due to these two pockets not being functional. The first photo shows everything I could fit into the pack. Note that my jacket is very lightweight, so it doesn’t take up much space (pic 2). Pic 5 shows the outside pocket unzipped. Pic 6 shows the main pocket unzipped. Note: I didn’t use the bladder that came with the pack! (I was carrying water and whatnot for my husband as well). The main compartment doesn’t really keep things cold at all, but it’s nice and easy to wipe out. (Just freeze a bottle of water and throw it in there to keep everything cold, at least for awhile! Then you have an extra bottle of water to drink!)Pic 7 shows that I truly did fit all the stuff from pic 1 into the pack, and pic 8 shows the size once zipped. The very last pic is me wearing it with slightly less than pictured here, as it was a different day. For reference, I’m 5’7”, approx 145, A. I had the straps across the chest as tight as they’d go, but they are adjustable, as are the hip straps. Both can be let out quite a bit!I truly hope that this review helps others!

I use it for everything thr quality is really good it holds pretty good size of water i love the design and the color and its adjustable i love it for hikes i recommend it

Tiene la ventaja de contar con espacio térmico que le da un plus ademas de los espacioa adicionales para guardar onjetos3

La compré hace ya años y lleva un trote que pa qué, no ha parado de subir y bajar montañas y descender por barrancos. Es muy resistente, una de las mejores compras que he hecho, además es muy práctica porque tiene mogollón de departamentos, y la neverita va muy bien. Yo le quité la bolsa de agua, eso nunca lo utilicé.

I bought this pack for running and whilst I do like it, it’s quite bulky so wouldn’t use it for races. However it is very useful for leisurely weekends where you may do a long run with breaks, a nice long cycle or just a long walk. The only criticism I have is I find the straw for the water hard to use, apart from that I think it’s a great pack for active people on the go who want to take a few bits with them and stay hydrated.

Auch nach vielfachem Gebrauch bin ich noch immer vom Rucksack begeistert. Er ist gut verarbeitet und bietet Platz für alles, was man auf einer Tagestour so braucht. Die Trinkblase fasst 2l und ist damit ausreichend. Eine Isolierbeschichtung schützt das Wasser vor übermäßiger Erwärmung. Sowohl für Radtouren als auch für Wanderungen sehr gut geeignet.

Awesome back pack, spent ages looking at various packs and water bladders, researching reviews etc. Anyone looking for a bladder pack and rucksack for their stuff then this is the pack for you!!!It is ergonomically great fit- perfect for running, won’t move about.Perfect for phone, keys, collapsing dog bowl for walkers etc.Perfect for cycling- it ticks all the boxes- I needed my pack to be versatile for lots of different activities.It’s excellent quality, it came super fast. The compartments are easily accessible and perfect for essentials. The bladder and tube is high quality and goes in thermal insulated compartment in back.It’s perfect- totally by accident it perfectly matches in colour (blue) my evo nightvision cycling jacket. So so happy with this purchase!!!Highly recommend
