Perfect EDC
This is my favorite EDC bag. I use this for getting back and forth to work. Looks professional and doesn’t look like a giant backpack on my back like I am still in college or something. I am sure it is a great hiking or biking bag, but for a EDC and taking a change of clothes along with an iPad or iPad mini, it’s perfect.

Perfect for biking
I really wanted a no frills lightweight Camelbak hydration pack for biking and this one fits the bill perfectly. I honestly was so excited about the pack when I found it that I didn’t realize it came with the bladder. I was really just trying to find one that would fit the Camelbak bladder I already had from a different pack. Getting it and finding it comes with the bladder was a huge bonus. I love that it has 2 side pouches that can hold additional water bottles or any other small items you may need (extra gloves, Handi-heats, snacks, etc.) The inside has a separate compartment that is in addition to the section that holds the bladder where you can stuff in rain gear, a light jacket, hat, snacks, etc. My current Camelbak is a little heavier when empty, so the lighter weight and no frills design makes this great for biking. Quick delivery, great product. Highly recommend.

Good storage -no leaks
Very bag, I hate carrying water bottle(s), this held a liter of water and stayed semi cold enough to enjoy in warm weather. It’s been so nice to also hold stuff in it, the side pockets weee great to store sunnies, sunscreens, sanitizer. Inside I carried my hoodie hat and my kids hoodie. It was very durable. I enjoy the sand color, I can’t tell it’s mine without it looking too gawdy. Highly recommend! Used at Disney and traveling Europe

Perfect for Zion
Bought this to hike red rock and Zion. It was a perfect size for 10 mile hikes. Room for enough gear and extra water, but not bulky at all. Would highly recommend.

Decent bag, leaky bladder
The bag itself is mostly featureless but I didn’t expect anything different so that’s fine. I had read reviews that the bladder leaks and I believed it couldn’t be that bad. Turns out it actually is, I tried everything to close it correctly but it’s hit or miss, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. Fortunately I put everything in plastic bags because otherwise all my stuff would have been soaking wet. If you decide to get it anyway consider getting a different bladder.
