Great simple backpack

Great and waterproof. It is a little flimsy but I'm able to put all my gear in there and fits pretty comfortably on my back.

absolutely waterproof

I use this for commuting all year round on the bike. Rain, Snow, sunshine it is so light weight that it is just awesome! There isn't a lot of structure though, kinda sucks, but always seems to find a comfortable spot on my back.

Pretty much only good for hiking

The bag is too thin and unstructured. Even putting in a laptop or books is a struggle because the plastic cloth sticks to items and since there is no stiffness it's impossible to get them in. I can see this being fantastic for hiking though - the bag itself weighs NOTHING and if you're only carrying clothing and food, and do not need constant access, this is the thing!

Does the trick pretty rad.
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
It is very light. Very waterproof. Looks cool! As one would expect- not a lot of support. Makes your back sweaty because it is waterproof and has no lift of the fabric from your back. Holds a lot of stuff for sucha light pack. I got it on steep and cheap for 35 bucks. Great value for that price. I do not think it is worth 90.
