Eagle Creek Waterproof Packable Backpack 22L

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

A fully taped, waterproof day pack that packs away into its own compact bag. It’s surprisingly very functional, with compression straps and deep mesh side pockets.

Life Venture says: 

Weighing just 150g this ultra-lightweight waterproof packable backpack is tougher than it looks thanks to the Cordura ripstop fabric that it’s made from. Taped seams mean it is also waterproof whilst bulk of up to 22 litres is neatly contained with the front cord compression. Contoured shoulder straps and a webbing hip belt ensure it is comfortable and reflective tabs and the bike light attachment point making it ideal for training, biking or hiking in safety. It packs into its own compact storage bag making it the ideal daysack to pack and take out for day trips when travelling.

Our Verdict

I’m impressed with this little bag, ok it’s not the bag I’m going to take mountain climbing with me, but it’s so small and light (131 grams) it’s a useful and versatile bit of kit that I get plenty of use out of. It’s a fully tapped waterproof rucksack, which will always be handy.

Waterproof Packable Backpack can be stashed in a small side pocket that can quickly be deployed. A fantastic bag for travelling, as it can be used as and when needed, exploring local towns and markets, but also you have a fully functional day pack that can be used for any short hiking trips.
