I bought the 30L cannot update my review on that bag because backcountry system will not allow it even though customer service instructed me to do so. They offered no compensation after I contacted them. Im not happy with their quality having paid for the bag to get two months of use. We started carrying a Nalgene silo for two days and it was too snug we switched to a skinny bottle. The water bottle pocket stinks. The fabric of the bag is sticky and bottles cannot slide in and out. The mesh isn’t stretchy then becomes stretched out. The bag is coming apart at the seams around the water bottle pocket. There is now a hole in the bag. 2 months of going to school. Really stinks. Customer service offered nothing I won’t buy backcountry products again.

I would never recommend that backpack for hiking. It’s heavy as it is and very stiff , does not shape to your back , does not have security belt by the waist , it makes it so unstable. I just ended 13 mile hike on PCT with horrible back pain from unstable weight distribution. Zippers are jamming so it’s hard to get fast to bottle of water or whatever you need from backpack. For short trips …. Maybe 🤔 I love colors and fabric, that’s about it.

Great simple pack, exactly as shown. I bough primarily because I couldn't find my Patagonia BlackHole 25L I use for flight travel and was looking for a cheaper option, but in the end am returning this one because I found my other pack, but compared to my other they are both fairly similar in size and utility, except this Backcountry Destination 20L is quite a bit cheaper and has space for a water bladder, and can fit a larger laptop. I almost kept this as a second/backup pack but already have too many. Great for a simple pack that can transition from office the gym to the trail, but in my opinion a little too rugged/outdoor-looking for use as everyday carry laptop bag for professional / white-collar customer meetings. Perfect size for airport airplane travel, will fit underseat to and a perfect 2nd travel-back to complement a roll-aboard that would go in the overhead.

The video explaining this pack was a great influencer. I really like the look and feel.

Looks bigger and fills more than what I think the average 20L would be - great quality construction and materials. Easily rivals the black hole patagonia pack I’ve had for years and replaced with this. Love!

Dimensions not accurate

The dimensions listed are 13 x 16 x 5in. Unfortunately, it is 19 inches tall and thus not eligible to fly as a personal item as desired.

Roomy cute backpack

This backpack is well-designed with a giant main compartment and a few strategically placed zip pockets, as well as side pockets for water bottles, etc. It's a comfortable fit when full and weightless when empty.

Fantastic Travel Backback

The design of this bag is optimal for travel purposes. You can fit a surprising amount of clothing in the main compartment while also carrying a laptop, laptop accessories, and a water bottle. Good, rigid structure as well.

Plenty of room. I take this in the park all the time. With room for a collapse helmet jacket n battery pack. I have fallen multiple times and it's really durable and waterproof. Not worth a hundred dollars waiting till it's on sale to buy Ps the 30L with hip straps is way better fir price
