Customer Reviews:
Strong and comfortable
This bag was better than expected. It’s strong and when adjusted correctly sits so comfortably on hips, helping with the load. Lots of pockets and even a rain cover that pulls out from underneath.
Fantastic hiking bag
I absolutely love this bag. There are plenty of pockets to organise all your belongings for a walk/hike. It is spacious with a built in waterproof cover, which comes in handy. It’s easily adjustable to fit all. It’s comfortable with support for back and hips. For the price this is a bargain.
