4Monster Hiking Daypack,Water Resistant Lightweight Packable Backpack for Travel Camping Outdoor

Absolutely LOVED this lightweight pack for using as a drop bag during a multi day staged ultra race. I was able to wear my puffy jacket before the race then stuff it in the bag along with a pair of flip flops (though if doing a drop bag for a regular ultra you could fit a pair of running shoes in them), a camp towel, a Nalgene with recovery drink, and a few other small odds and ends. It did not bog down with weight. The color is a beautiful blue-green and through six very rough days of transport held up well without any tearing, holes, or visible wear. I would say it could handle a light drizzle but nothing substantial as it isn’t taped seams or heavy fabric. I was able to wear it as a backpack easily over several layers. When finished it scrunched down super small into your hand. Love that it had a few extra pockets to store things instead of one large opening. I HIGHY recommend this bag and if doing a large ultra I would definitely get several of them in different colors to define what each has in it. I would NOT recommend this as a regular hiking bag- it doesn’t have the support you would need to carry items long distances. I would recommend a proper hiking bag for that. As a drop bag or lightweight carry bag though its golden.

Very useful as an emergency backpack; it packs up into a tiny bag; this is not a very good solution as an everyday backpack as it does not appear to be durable, but it is fantastic for a situation where you might need it but do not want a full backpack; use it for emergency prep, backpacking (as an extra) or for travel; is should be able to carry most of what you need for a day;

Great Compact Backpack for Motorcycle Use – Lightweight, Durable, and Mostly Weather-ResistantI’ve been using this backpack regularly while travling on my motorcycle, and it’s proven to be a great companion for daily use. Its compact size makes it ideal and never feels bulky or gets in the way, and I appreciate being able to carry it with me at all times.The backpack holds up well in light rain, keeping the contents dry. The zippers appear to be water-resistant, which adds a layer of protection. However, I wouldn’t rely on it in a heavy downpour—it’s not fully waterproof, so I’d recommend using a rain cover or waterproof liner if you expect serious weather.The material feels high-quality and durable, with good resistance to tears and abrasions. It’s clearly built to last under normal wear and tear. The zippers and stitching also seem solid, which is reassuring for long-term use.The shoulder straps are made of mesh, which helps with breathability but limits their ability to support heavy loads comfortably. If you plan to carry a lot of weight, this might not be the best option. I added a chest strap, and that’s made a noticeable difference in comfort and stability while riding.Overall, this backpack is a great choice for motorcyclists who need something compact, lightweight, and durable for everyday use. It’s not built for heavy loads or extreme weather, but for light commuting and casual rides, it does the job well. The addition of a chest strap is highly recommended for better comfort.

I was looking for a smaller lightweight backpack that wouldn't take up much room when I pack to travel. This worked out great on a recent trip to Alaska. I wanted something that would hold my extra layers of clothing (raincoat or puffer jacket) that would be lightweight and not take up much room. This worked very well. My regular backpack is large, heavy, and bulky so I left it behind while hiking and took this lightweight one and didn't have any problems.

Took on a European cruise and travel across Italy. Bought for a light weight day trip bag. I was skeptical when I thought this but was pleasantly surprised that it was an outstanding purchase for a light weight bag that I can stuff easily into a carry on bag.

Great handy bag! I used this bag as my daypack for walking around, hiking, etc the entire time I was on vacation in Switzerland and it was great. Held my cameras and all my other little knick knacks and purchases during the day. Not only did it hold them it did a great job at keeping them dry when there was a pretty decent rainstorm. Overall i’m very satisfied with it. The straps aren’t the most comfortable but you have to remember what you are buying. The bag is meant for convenience and holding miscellaneous things not heavy loads.

Great lightweight material, love how it folds into it's own small pouch. Perfect for travel, I plan to use it on my flight to italy to use as my 'essentials' only bag, items needed during flight. Then once at my destination will use as needed for day trips.

Easy to folde into the picket and durable. The size is good but difficult to dig from the front compoartment. The bag strapes are cutting shoulders when it gets heavy. I like the watercup holders on the sides but start to lose its ealsticity after a few uses. Not very water resistant, stuff gets soaked inside. I got the grey color one.
