The Explorer Ruckcase is now made with lightweight and tough Ripstop fabric. Excellent for travelling. The bag can be used to carry with handle, on the shoulder with the integrated straps and also features a detachable day sack.

Wirecutter

The Explorer offers many of the same features as the pricier bags we tested—a removable daypack, stowable straps, and a main compartment that opens like a suitcase. So this pack is a great deal if you don’t mind sacrificing some comfort, durability, and warranty support.

 The things that kept it from being a 5 star pack? No rain cover and no place to put a Nalgene-type water bottle or hydration bladder, so I'm going to have to buy a rain cover and a water bottle holder that hangs from the waistbelt webbing. The mesh pockets on the 15L bag are too small for even a woman's fist. They say it has an MP3 port on the 15L bag, but no luck finding it. 15L is too small for school books if you are trying to visualize the size of 15L

Lots of Features, really nice magically transformative pack.

If you often find yourself traveling with heavy outdoor gear, the tapered shape of the REI Ruckpack may be just what you're looking for. The top-to-bottom zipper design allows for easy access and strategic packing, while the tapered shape encourages all heavy gear to stay down at the base. This helps keep the pack from getting top-heavy, creating an uneven weight distribution and causing discomfort or lack of balance. This travel backpack is the perfect airplane-to-trail bag for those trips when you are pressed for time or space. The comfortable harness system is completely stowable for long car trips or when checking your bag, and the easily accessible and organized side pockets are great for your travel essentials.
While we appreciate the side pocket organization, we found that some of the smaller pockets inside this bag are too shallow to feasibly hold anything. The shallow pocket theme extends to the two water bottle pockets on the sides, although these have improved since the last model. Most bottle sizes will fit but are not particularly secure when the bag isn't upright. The harder hip pads take a moment to get used to, so don't be surprised if you feel a little discomfort when you first put the pack on. The discomfort only lasted a few uses and, once broken in, offers ample support.

 There'S a lot of loops and fabric straps on the outside of this bag that you're, probably not gon na use for travel, but would come in really handy if you're using this bag on the trail for hiking. There'S these bungee cords up here. It'S got fabric loops down here, there's sixteen hidden daisy chains and a couple other more bungee, straps and loops, so there's probably about 30 or so different, bungee, cord straps and loops and the outside of this bag. Again, probably more than you're gon na need in your standard, in addition to those straps and loops, the outside of this pack also has two water bottle pockets, one on each side

 The fabric loop for the backpack straps and the rainfly most of the exterior organization on this pack is going to come from this top brain pocket and then these two kind of long skinny side pockets. The one on the left side has a bunch of little compartments in there for travel documents, electronics, passport, etc, and then the pocket on the other side just opens up. It has a small mesh separator and you can actually access the inside of the bag from that pocket. One of the great features on the ruck pack or the back packing straps REI makes a lot of camping and backpacking gear and they put a lot of the same features into the ruckpack as they do when they're backpacking backpacks

 It has two compression straps on the side, as well as a top brain pocket. These two long side, pockets that run the length of the pack and then the bottom of the pack is where it's stored.

The one on the left side has a bunch of little compartments in there for travel documents, electronics, passport, etc, and then the pocket on the other side just opens up

 It has these pretty big, thick backpack straps, there's a lot of buckles and straps and attachments on the outside of the bag that caused this thing to weigh in at about four point: two: five pounds: I have the men's version of the ruck pack and one of The reasons why this is kind of a good overall backpack for a lot of people is because it comes in two sizes, there's the men's version, which fits me pretty good at about 510 and then there's the women's version, which will fit torso length and hip ratio That are a little bit smaller than this bag. There'S a lot of features in this backpack that are more akin to a backpacking backpack, as opposed to a travel bag.

REI Ruckpack 40 Review

 A lot of the problems are related to weight savings, which makes sense for a hiking like day pack.

 The water bottle spots on the sides are big and can be tightened, very nice. Even that front netting is useful sometimes.  But I don't really hike, I bought the pack as a daily driver and it's not suited. The pack just isn't robust enough, but then it's a little too tall so it flops over when you set it down

  But I don't really hike, I bought the pack as a daily driver and it's not suited. The pack just isn't robust enough, but then it's a little too tall so it flops over when you set it down. The pouch for the water bladder isn't quite enough for a laptop. There aren't quite enough larger pockets, nor is there a real organizer pocket

It's alright.

, So that bag is going to sit a little bit higher on your back, which helps distribute the load. Small note. On the women's focus version, if the pack is a little bit higher on your back, you have a ponytail or long hair that can stick right into the back of the pack. Hannah can verify [ Hannah ] ``, Yep !'', Starting with the straps we've got some Decent density foam going on here that helps with a comfortable carry

 We were a little bit confused on this, however, because the anchor is about halfway down the strap., And this is especially noticeable on the men's version.. When you pull and tighten this, the strap can kind of get crumpled up

, Just to make it more functional, with the intended use case of each side.. Moving on to the main access of the pack, these zippers here are lockable, which is a nice additional security feature.
