“The backpack is great. I've used it twice for short weekend trips. The only gripe I havce is the laundry bag. I paid an additional 10 euros for the laundry bag and it ended up being a cheap mesh/netted bag, even though on the tag it says it was a waterproof bag that featured a liquid discharge valve that could be used as a dry bag for wet gear. I guess the whole entire bag is a "valve."”

“It made with every consideration possible with extremely thoughtful adjustments. The back pad is incredibly heavy there is no way to shed that pad to make it into a great day bag”

“I can honestly say I am enamored with this really well-made backpack. I received it a couple weeks ago and took it on a day trip that included an ocean boat trip, then zip lining, and living-out-of-the-backpack for cold to hot weather. I was 10/10 pleased with how the backpack allows me to grab interior items via the back zipper, and the coated bottom kept it dry on wet ground. The best feature is how it can expand like a duffel bag—and bigger at the bottom—to hold multiple jackets, etc. The large interior velcro pocket, and multi-sized zippered pockets are intuitive, and simple enough that I didn't have to root through each one trying to remember where I had stashed stuff. When my water bottle leaked a bit inside, the material dried fast and stain free. I especially like the added pulls on each zipper that make it easy to grab to open. I haven't tried the collapsible clothes caddy yet, but can tell it is durable and thoughtfully designed. 10/10.”

“Very handy backpack, especially like the toiletries bag that attaches to the front. Clothes pack also very practical. Only drawback is that the shoulder straps are a bit stiff and hurts my shoulders when riding a bike - after 10 minutes. Not sure if it would hurt hiking .”

“The wait was totally worth it. This backpack was design perfectly and the color is so spot on.”

“The bag feels well built, but it’s really heavy without anything in it. I think it’s all of the back padding, which it would be nice to have a lighter material. Also, once you put anything in the bag it’s MASSIVE. It would be great if there was a way to keep it thinner if there isn’t anything in it besides a laptop or wallet, etc. Also, bummed by the hamper- in the video it looks like it attaches to the bottom of the backpack and instead I just got a mesh bag...I could’ve bought one cheaper elsewhere so that was a bummer. I wish a picture of the product had been clearer than what the video showed.”

“Only reason it isn't a 5 star is because I haven't had the opportunity to use it yet. It's what I ordered and it looks great- can't wait!”

Hey. You will love it. New adventures are waiting.

“I missed that the wardrobe system was not included in the Kickstarter price. Sadly though the wardrobe cannot we bought separately. Without this and the front pouch - equally not included- the backpack is like most other travel backpacks.”
