I love this pack! It’s long and slightly slim shape fits easily under plane seat, yet it holds a lot. I’ve been using it as a day pack and its been great. Has pocket that holds 24oz water bottle, the front pocket has a long vertical zipper that has held papers flat or was an easy place to stash my rain jacket for easy access. Main compartment has upper mesh bag that is perfect for sunglasses case or anything small to avoid having to dig. Then there is plenty of space in the rest of the compartment. Lastly there are tabs for carabiners. It’s the lightest pack I have and it worked great on a recent vacation where we did a lot of day hikes and touring.
The perfect bag in a bag! I purchased this specifically to pack into my Allpa because it lays so flat in the main chamber. Now I have a spare backpack anywhere I travel
I like this backpack a lot, although there are a couple of things I don't like. I love the colors, and it holds my laptop, some files, and a sweatshirt really well. However, without the chest strap attached, it isn't very comfortable and doesn’t sit right on my shoulders. The water bottle holders also don't fit my water bottle, which is 32 oz. Overall I do like it, just wish it was a little more comfortable.
The Batac 16L is a fine enough bag - lightweight, fun colors, easily packable. Without any real support, it isn’t the most comfortable nor functional for any physical activity. It will be a great bag to lug things around from one place to another though, and for the price, I couldn’t leave it behind. Thanks!
I’ve been looking for a lightweight bag to hold rain gear, water, sunscreen, wallet etc. for my 5-7 mile walks to town. The side bottle holders work seamlessly. I was unaware that I was hauling the weight or bulk of two bottles. Wearing the backpack only added positively to my exercise routine.
This pack has the best colors! It’s the perfect size and weight. I have enough room to carry my essentials (wallet, diabetes supplies, phone and snacks) and compartments for my sketchbook, paints and pencils. Can’t wait to use it on my travels through Japan this summer.
I purchased two of these for both of my girls and they just love them. Especially for how many items they can fit inside! We will definitely be buying two more.
Great lightweight daypack. I took this all over Southern Utah and felt it was a great hiking pack.
Love the lightweight, and highly functional pack. Meets all my needs for day hiking/skiing.
Love it, so does my sister. That's why I'm on my second one, she stole my first one.
