The backpack offers some useful features included. There are plenty of pockets for odds and ends available, the side mesh pockets for beverage bottles are sufficiently large. I particularly like the spinal network that prevents the backpack rests directly on the back - the back remains dry. Less useful is an "extension of the backpack to the top", which rubs against the back of the head - it can be easy but buckling, so that this disorder could be eliminated. Materials and workmanship are OK, one may wonder at this price do not expect. Overall, a reasonable price for the everyday backpack that is suitable for day hikes. Waterproof I have not yet tested (thank God!).
