Patagonia Refugio 28L Pack vs REI Co-op Tarn 18 Pack - Kids'

You have this large mesh slip pocket here and i really like the use of mesh to make it very easy to see what's on the inside and then i really like th...

Plus, our last trip, my daughter took an older model Half Dome pack that was not a perfect fit but a great size capacity for her gear. This one was too small for that same amount of weight/gear. Maybe we just need to get her smaller gear tho.

I've been using this as my "take stuff to and from work" pack for a month or so. I like the clip to secure the laptop in its place, which is something that other packs I looked at did not have. It is somewhat smaller than the worn out bag it replaced, but seems to be sufficient. The shoulder straps are a little bit slippery when worn with my rain coat, so single-shouldering it can be insecure

This pack allowed her to comfortably carry the ten essentials, her down sleeping bag, a cut-down pad, her clothes, and a stuffed cat she sleeps with (in the outside pocket so Kitty could take in the views). The pack is very well made and comfortable. It’s a “real” pack that’s scaled down where many kids packs are frankly junk. I’m impressed by the design features, materials and build quality

Also straps are too close together. (You can see this by comparing other packs in photos.) A comparable bag in size and looks to some degree (but far more roomy and well-designed) is the Northface Jester - but its straps do not compare to Osprey or Gregory packs.

He's got two water bottles on the pack right now. These are fully adjustable, both top and bottom two side hit pockets which we love. We'Ve got a pock...

Um, there's no whistles or any gadgets on here. Like I said, it's not a serious hiking backpack. Most serious ones have the whistles there you could b...

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

Your laptop your tablet, tech, pouch things like that inside the main cavity. I just have my pick design tech pouch here and then I also have a little...

It has plenty of pockets and storage. The main pocket is large and has a place to hand a water bladder. There are plenty of little storage places around the pack to put all the gear I would need for most outings. I like the way it fit and it was easy to adjust to fit my shoulders and waist

So you can just undo those so that you can zip it down a little bit further or you can just keep them like relatively loose um, which that doesn't rea...

But this right here this strap and it keeps it stationary so that last time I had a camel pack, not the best pack, then another one, I'm just kind of ...

Carrie's my photography equipment, small notebook and light jacket in comfort! Great buy, purchased in sale!

at least that's one thing. I Hate Yeah. Rockmart Misters always had issues getting his uh water bottle to stay on and stay comfortable while he's hiki...
