So many fantastic featuresThere are so many things I love about this pack. I used it everyday for 17 days, trekking to Everest Base Camp and Gokyo Lakes in Nepal. I had no issues with it at all and I am now obsessed with this backpack. It was the perfect size for all the optional weather gear I could need and camera gear. I used a 2L bladder in the designated pocket for it and it was great. I also had trekking poles attached to the outside and they stayed in place. I loved the pockets in the waist strap as it was easy to access snacks etc without taking your bag off. The padding in the back of the backpack was really nice and not once did I get a sore back.

Perfect storageI bought this to use as my daypack on the everest base camp trek I recently undertook. I found it to be the perfect size and loved the water bladder pouch and side waiststrap pockets. The support through the back was comfortable and not too rigid.

Solid packBought this to use as a daybag and so far I am very pleased with it. Even fully loaded it feels light and well-balanced. It’s comfortable to wear and seems well-designed. I am looking forward to many adventures with this bag!

Great pack for day walksSuper comfortable and great size for day walking, fitted all wet weather gear, hydration pack and food. Was wonderfully water proof in light rain.
Definitely happy with this pack.

Absolutely waterproof, trim not so comfortableI bought my pack approximately a month ago to walk to and from work. I wanted one with a wide base for my lunch bag, and one to include a full change of clothes and shoes.
It's very waterproof, it has been completely soaked from walking in heavy rain and the water just beaded on the canvas, not soaking through at all.
The pack is very roomy. Once I had it fitting correctly however, I found the trim on the waist strap pockets rubbed my inner arms when walking. I was wearing longer sleeves when I tried it on in the store so didn't notice it.
It's a shame as those extra pockets are so convenient. I've purchased another pack, without the pockets this time. I will however, keep this pack for winter as when I'm walking with long sleeves, it'll be perfect.

Lots of useful featuresI have not gone out in the field yet but will do in a month or so when we head off on our trip overseas. I have tried it out and there are many pockets that are useful. I really like the deep side pockets that hold decent sized water bottles. Another thing I like is that the pack is light which is great. The support on the back of the pack is excellent as well.

Functional backpackNot sure who's great idea at HQ it was to make such a light coloured day pack but safe to say that after a couple of multi - day hikes in Peru it looks decidedly grubby. Other than the obvious shortfalls of its appearance, this bag was great. The pockets, both on the hip strap and the top of bag, provided quick access to important items. The straps on the front held my walking piles firmly in place. Stretchy side pockets meant that I could fit large water bottles either side after my Hydration pack broke. My back never felt super overheated despite a full pack and strenuous activity. I also ended up using this bag as a carryon bag on my flights, which it worked well for

Love this as a train commuter back packI was searching around for a while till i found this pack. I recently traveled overnight with it and it fitted 2 laptops and all my gear that I needed. It’s ergonomic and fits a lot and secure. Has spots for keys, bottle, keep cup and lots of bits to atrach stuff too. I love it. Only thing I would change is a mobile phone pouch that fits larger phones so you don’t need to take pack off to access it. Colours and woman design is fantastic.
