Great hydration backpack so far!
I bought this hydration backpack because I’ve purchased other Feezen products and they’ve held up for me. It’s a smaller backpack, perfect for the hydration bladder and a few other items that I need when I’m hiking. I usually have a few snacks, phone, backup battery pack, electrolytes, and other miscellaneous items. This has fit them great. It is light, has kept the water cold, and hasn’t fallen apart on me. It doesn’t keep the water as cold as a vacuum container but its better than my non insulated one while still being lightweight.The bladder is easy to clean, has a wide mouth (for if you like ice in it), and is easily removed. I wasn’t a huge fan of the way the mouth/delivery mechanism works but I think its because I’m used to a slightly different style. Feezen does offer free replacement of the bladder but doesn’t offer much details on their website or on Amazon so I’m not sure what all is covered.In general usage (haven’t really stress tested it yet), it works great. I’m 6’3” and 230 lbs and it fits me with a little adjustment. I’m also a bit of a sweater and the mesh backing to it is nice because it allows it to breath. The insulation is a lose/win situation. I used to love how the water would cool me off on my back but by the end, you’re drinking hot water. Not with this backpack. I barely can tell the water is cold in the backpack. So the insulation is doing its job. The size of the bladder is about perfect with the insulation. Its supposed to keep it cold for 4 hours. In practice, I’m usually starting to drink them dry about at that mark and if I’m hiking longer, I’d need a refill anyway. 2L’s of water is plenty and I’m usually not out longer than that without some type stop at a campsite/refill area anyway. I can’t talk about the long term quality of this because I haven’t had it long but so far, all the zippers work properly, the seems seem tight, and its working as it should. I’ll update in the future If things change.So overall, a good hydration backpack so far. It does what it advertises and we’ll see how the longevity and warranty work as I use it.

THE Outdoors/Sports Pack You've Been Waiting For!
Freezen nailed it with this backpack!!!It's light-weight, rugged, tons of storage & it's actually comfortable too wear!!! Honestly that's enough to sell me right there, but as they say in infomercials "but wait there's more!" Freezen decided too insulate a separate interior section & include a hydration bladder! That means no more having too strap on a hydration pack & then a bulky backpack on top of it!I would have loved too have had this thing when I went on a trip to Europe with my Mom in 2015! Yes, it's an outdoors/sports backpack (hiking, mountain biking etc) but it's also perfect for tours!Anyways, I'll stop rambling (yes, I know to late...sorry!). The point is, this is an awesome pack, that's well made, tons of storage, comfortable for long duration wear & keeps cool water within easy reach. At this price, I'd call that a definite no regret purchase!

Assemble everything first then fill!
I thought the overall design of this hydration backpack was well laid out with convenient pockets and zippers to hold everything you'd need for a hiking trip or the like. The material isn't especially thick, it isn't cotton but more of a polyester, but it works well at repeling rain and keeping the overall weight of it to a minimum. You can store 2 liters in the bladder, which is more than enough for the times that I have used it. The inner bladder portion is insulated to help keep your water cold. The shoulder straps are lightly padded but I found the overall straps placed too closely together making it a little cumbersome putting it on and taking it off even with the straps adjusted to their maximum length. I would recommend threading the drinking hose through the backpack first then attaching the empty bladder in the backpack to ensure the hose connects securely to the bladder to prevent leaks. Luckily the bladder is very easily filled with the wide mouth portion which in turn makes cleaning the bladder a breeze.

Great backpack with water supply
This backpack is more than I expected! The material looks and feels like it should cost more than it does and I had no issues with staining or spotting after a slight rain. The shoulder straps fit snugly but not so much that they begin to hurt after a decent hike and the chest and waist straps secure the backpack without irritation.The water pouch is large enough to not worry about running dry and the straw was super easy to use.The only issue I had was that the headphone slot was not opened. If I had a wired heart, I would have to cut the backpack a little, but with Bluetooth it wasn't an issue.

Strap size is way too small.
Nice sized bag, but the straps are undersized for me. I am 6’2” and 200 lbs. I really can’t imagine though who the straps would be the right size for other than a child or teenager.The chest strap when buckled sits right below my chin and the waist strap sit just below my chest. Overall I would highly not recommend unless you are really small.Otherwise, construction is great. It is well put together and has a lot of features for the money.Disclaimer: I was given this bag by the seller in order to beta test the product (as were probably most of these reviews from this same time frame)
