G4Free Mini 12L Hiking Backpack RFID Small Rucksack Compact Multipurpose Daypacks for Men Women Camping Walking Daytrip, Dark Grey

The media could not be loaded.  Most regular size backpacks are around 25L, but they seem too big and unnecessarily bulky when you overfill them; so I like how this one is slim and compact.You can still fit more than you think in here, but even when you fill this one, it doesn't look overfull/bulky or even "bottom heavy" like most bags do..I'm kind of a "minimalist prepper", so I carry more supplies than the average minimalist, but not as much cr*p as the average prepper either-- just the most useful things to be ready...I've noticed three compartments is the perfect number, because 1-2 zippers means you just throw everything in with no organization, while 4-5 or more zippers (like SwissTech bags) is a little too separated, where you have to remember where you put every single thing to get to it quickly..This way I have the main compartment for bigger items like journals/books, middle pocket for smaller things like pens/first aid, and then the front pocket for some food/drink mixes too.I don't like most modern bags, because everything looks so "boxy" and awkward and sticks out when you wear it; so I wanted something more "slim" that would just stick to your body more effortlessly and blend in better in a crowd, and this is the best one I've found that does that..(I'm also tiny, 5 foot 2, so this is one of the few bags that doesn't make me look even more tiny while wearing it..)I've even filled it as much as I can as a test, and it balances the weight pretty well so the backpack doesn't look/feel overfull, like most backpacks do..(Pictures of the bag include everything already inside it.)I've also had heavier backpacks before but the straps would start weighing down on my (already bad) shoulders, and this one hasn't done that so far, so I've actually enjoyed carrying this bag around more. (And on top of it, it's more affordable than most of the boxy, non-practical bags out there..! It's also waterproof material, so it's better for outdoors/camping.)It depends how much you like to carry for whether this is too small or not, because it won't necessarily fit your everyday items plus a change of clothes.. But I've learned that I like slightly smaller bags, because it reminds me to keep only what I need in there instead of letting it overfill...And completely full, this bag is only about 10 pounds, and still has basic survival necessities for most situations... I also love the survival whistle that actually works-- didn't expect that one..Only downside I've found so far, is they could make the bottom a little more "flat". As it is, the bag sometimes falls when you set it down because the bottom of it isn't "level", the water bottles are actually what mostly stabilize it; but I like my bag to stay put wherever I set it down, without it falling forward.Considering the price and practicality of this backpack though, compared to all the other backpacks I've tried, this is my favorite so far that combines effectiveness and size-- both slim and compact for effortless use...

I used this during the summer while hiking in the heat. It is very lightweight and breathes pretty well. Holds everything you'd need on a day hike. The only thing that bugged me a little was the water bottle holders. It's a real snug fit. A Smart Water bottle fits in it perfectly, but a bit hard to get it in and out. I think they ought to use stretchier elastic at the top. Otherwise, it was perfect for me. I wish G4 made a 24L pack!

Bought for a trip out west and it worked great, perfect size and held up

I was looking for a compact backpack - don’t care a lot for handbags/purses. This one in certainly compact, but still has several compartments and pockets. The quality of the material doesn’t seem very durable though, so I gave 4 rather than 5 stars.

For me this 12 L size is perfect for day trips - the pack is lightweight, foldable and pretty solid. I was also pleased to learn that the clips for the chest strap, including the bright orange one with the whistle, are easily disconnected if not needed/wanted.

Love the backpack, great for hiking, not big and not to small! Love the color too! Well made!

Love the color and all the different compartments. Very comfortable, lightweight and just the perfect size.

Good bag simple lightweight seems like it will work good for walking around in hot weather the straps could use a bit more padding like the bag brought to use for carrying I pad mini purse items and small amount of meds and supplies I am a senior citizen who uses a cane so purses don,t work any more . Needed a small 12L backpack this bag will suit my needs.

I absolutely adore this little backpack. I’m a pretty petite woman and didn’t want to lug around a huge pack while out on my daily adventures. This pack has plenty of room for all I need to carry around, without being too large and cumbersome. Great quality, I love the chest strap that adds some extra stability and the emergency whistle on the buckle is a nice addition, as I’m often out hiking in the woods. If you’re looking for an everyday backpack with lots of pockets that isn’t too large, you can’t go wrong with this one. I bought the peacock blue and love the colour!

Plenty of pockets and compartments. Small but not too small. I use it for my small camera gear together with padded inserts that ai bought separately, it’s great for one mirrorless camera and 2-3 lenses. It’s more versatile than a dedicated camera bag. The mesh on the back started to wear out within a few weeks, but nothing too major. The bag is very comfortable to wear all day. Side pockets are great for water bottles, umbrella or a tripod. The overall quality is very good, better than similar rucksacks from outdoor stores.

L'ho comprato come zainetto per portarmi dietro le cose sia mie che di mio figlio che ha 1 anno, e la dimensione è perfetta. Il bello è che ha una struttura sua (che mantiene anche se è vuoto) e un minimo di suddivisione in tasche, quindi è assolutamente perfetto per le mie esigenze. Ho scoperto di recente che ci sta anche un computer da 14". Ovviamente se ci sta il computer con il cavo ed eventuali accessori, non ci stanno le cose per il bambino, però è multifunzionale a seconda delle esigenze.

Praticité, confort et esthétique sont ses caracteristiques

Schöner Rucksack wenn man nicht soviel mitschleppen brauch. Brotdose, Snacks, 2 Flaschen, kurze Hose, und der Ganze andere Kram, wie Handy, Geld usw. passen super rein. Meine Jacke habe ich vorne verzurrt. Ist die perfekte Alternative zu meinem 25l Rucksack. Die vielen Unterteilungen finde ich super.
