Outlander Packable Handy Lightweight Travel Hiking Backpack Daypack-Dark Blue

I bought four of these backpacks (33L) for our trip to Walt Disney World early this summer, and they were perfect. Because they are compact and fold into a zippered inner pocket, they were incredibly easy to pack with all of our other stuff. The zippered pouch that everything tucks into when you pack it up is also a really convenient zippered pouch inside the backpack when it’s in use. The different sections of the backpack provided places to put specific things we needed to carry in like our ponchos, gift cards, hats & umbrellas, reusable straws, and other things like that. The two outside mesh drink holders were great and very helpful as well. I used one for our reusable water bottles, and one side was for other things like sunglasses, sunscreen, and hand sanitizer, which we needed to access more frequently than things inside the backpack. The backpacks were lightweight, comfortable, and sturdy. My 10 year old and 13 year old didn’t complain about the backpacks (miracle!) and they were perfect for any little trinkets or souvenirs they bought throughout the day. 5 out of 5 stars!

I bought several nylon backpacks on Amazon prior to my trip last month, to determine which size or brand that I would like. A few will be returned.The 22L Outlander backpack in purple felt the best and I now use it most days as my purse. I am 5'4" and a bit short-waisted, so standard backpacks are all too long on me. This one is quite comfortable and a good length. The side pockets easily hold my either or both a 12oz or 16oz stainless steel water bottle, or my sunglasses. This pack nicely survived a two-week trip to Europe last month as my purse and daypack, as we traveled by bus and train. It seems quite well-made with perfectly functioning zippers and no fraying on seams. It carried all of my usual "purse" items as well as an extra shirt, socks, snacks, pill organizer, with room to add a few souvenirs. Even though I weighed it down pretty well the straps were still comfortable on my shoulders.The other brand of similar backpacks were not as comfortable on me, and one had annoyingly loud material (I think that was the MCIRCO 20L). The Outlander (22L purple) and Hexin (33L purple) seemed to both be made by the same company since they fit similarly and had the same style and print on the fabric. So, I am keeping them both! When I had more things to carry, I would put the smaller pack inside the larger one. I used the larger one as my carry-on for my flights, and the smaller one as my purse. Both sizes fold back neatly into a little pouch, but frankly, I can't see me ever putting them away. They are so lightweight that they take up practically no space. I did fold the big one a few times and carried it inside the smaller one (so that I would have an extra shopping bag with me), but after a few times I just rolled the extra pack and placed it at the bottom of the pack in use.I also bought an Outlander (33L) in Black for my husband to carry, but he didn't mind the dark purple color. He may have objected if I had wanted him to carry a pink or red one, but the purple is pretty subtle. Both of the larger packs came in handy for sorting our clothes during the trip. One day we even loaded both 33L backpacks with stuff we should not have brought with us (can you say "overpacked"?) and walked to the Amsterdam Post Office to mail home a box of our "stuff" (yeah, we'll just call it stuff, to be nice here). These packs are SO SO handy. I got the impression, at the PO, that mailing home dirty clothes was not uncommon. Doh.Yes this nylon pack is a bit flimsy, but it's so strong and holds so much! For the price, I totally recommend the Outlander (or the Hexin). Buy one in each size. Keep both, or give one away to a friend! Can't go wrong with this product.Disclaimer: I was not given anything free to try. I paid for this product. I like this product and recommend it. (No one ever sends me anything for free. Boo hoo)

I have plenty of backpacks, but I wanted something easily packable that could use as a day pack. I'm going on a cruise in a few months and some of our excursions are 9 hours. I thought this would be helpful.It folds down into a very small pouch, and it is very lightweight. Two things that were important to me. It has three different zippered compartments plus a divider in the main compartment (nice size for an iPad). Surprisingly, I could fold it back down into its self-contained pouch when I was done using it, which was nice (they provide a little card that shows you how to do that).The capacity was very good as something I could put in my suitcase for traveling without taking up much weight or space, yet open it up into a quite nice size for holding all of my belongings for a day. The shoulder straps are quite thin (wide enough, just not very thick), making me worry about comfortably carrying it around too much, but the straps are adequate given I'm not wearing it for six or eight hours at a time, nor am I making this very heavy.All in all, I'm quite pleased with this purchase.

If you are looking for a lightweight and durable backpack then this is the one for you. I wore this Outlander backpack daily for 15 days while in Honolulu. It accompanied me while walking/hiking for over 30 miles, including to the top of Diamond Head. This backpack was the perfect travel mate!I bought the 33L size in Light Blue. I went with the larger size to be sure that I had enough room to fit whatever I would need for the day. I had plenty of room for a change of clothes, flip flops, bottles of water, towels and spare room for whatever we picked up along the way.This backpack has multiple compartments so you can keep everything organized. All of the zipper pulls have an extended tab on them for ease of use. The handle loop on top is convenient for when you want to carry the backpack instead of wearing it. The straps are padded just enough for comfort but not so much that they are bulky. The padded straps were comfortable even after wearing the backpack for hours at a time. On each side of the bag is a mesh pocket with elastic top that is perfect for water bottles.This backpack gives you some really nice features but probably the best one is how lightweight it is. It weighs just under 9 ounces. But even with the lightweight it is very durable. The material and stitching are strong and the zippers are sturdy. The backpack can fold up into its own zippered pocket and then clip onto something else, such as your belt loop, with the included carabiner clip. I didn't bother to do this, preferring to just roll or fold it up when not using it and stuffing it into another bag.Overall I am very pleased with this backpack and would definitely make this purchase again. It is coming back to Hawaii with me again next year for more adventures!

I liked this pack so much, this is the second one I have purchased.The first one was years ago and I put it through heck. It folds up into a very small pouch that can be clipped onto a belt or bag. I take it with me when I use carry on luggage only and add this when I have more to bring back than what I started with. It is super light. It has pockets in exactly the places where I need them to be.I put my purse and computer in this pack, along with other work related things and then that is my one personal item and I still have my actual carry on. This pack fits under the seat on the plane.The other thing I do with this bag is wash it when I get home (because it has usually been sitting on the floor of a plane, or bus, or train.. or other less than pristine places.) This pack washes really well and dries quickly.I am happy to be able to get a blue one this time!

Se compacta mucho y es ultra ligera. Ideal para llevar cambios de ropa y artículos que no pesen tanto… para prolongar su tiempo de vida. Relación calidad y precios muy buena!

Lightweight, compact and great for day hikes.

I love the backpack for my purposes. It is lightweight, and folds into a tiny pocket. It appeared that one of the nylon zippers had separated, but I was able to get it back together. As it is an outside pocket, I am not concerned about it, and I think it will stay together. I love the backpack, and can't wait to travel.

It’s small but perfect
