Rucksack choices, and almost half price offer on a 58l spotted

Post by Frnc »

Anyone after a 58 litre pack, this one is £80 (36%) off, plus an extra 10% off, and looks pretty decent. It's not the lightest, but is light enough. No 'proper' pockets, except the lid, but it has the usual mesh ones found on backpacking packs these days. Personally I prefer proper pockets for a BOB/GHB, but they are hard to find these days. Mesh ones are good for wet gear of course, and for finding things you want en route. The pack is a top loader, but has a side zip, and one 'around the base', for access Accessing the middle/bottom in a fully packed top loader is a pain. Some of the larger traditional packs had zips internally, to make a bottom compartment, plus the external one, but I just threw my sleeping bag there, and didn't bother making it into a compartment. However sometimes I would shove my waterproof in there and access it from the outer zip.

Maybe this thread could cover other packs, choices, styles, questions, anything rucksacks?
