We recently got into hiking and needed something to carry our stuff in on the longer trails. We saw this and thought it would be perfect. We take it with us regularly to stash water bottles, snacks, tripods, and various other essentials in. It’s super light and at times I forget that I have it on my back. I will say that folding it back down isn’t something we have tried just yet but its small enough to toss in the trunks and it lays flat so its not really something we need to do. All around great back pack for hiking the trails!
This 10L backpack by Skysper is a great packable backpack. I ordered the black color, which is more of a dark charcoal grey, but I didn’t mind. The backpack comes already packed as a pouch and easily opens up into a backpack. I found the backpack provided plenty of storage and made really well. There is a front zipper pouch, a main compartment with 3 pouches inside (I’m including the pouch it can fold into which can also become it’s own pouch), 2 bottle pouches on the sides, and a bonus back pouch to conceal personal items. The should straps are adjustable, and have a mesh which is about 2.5 inches wide providing a good amount of comfort.
Packing the backpack is very easy, and I was able to do it on my lap. The backpack overall is very light and can easily be packed into another backpack, purse, or suitcase. I really like the simplicity of the design, and it doesn’t look or feel cheap. Even though it’s a packable backpack, the material seems really good, and the zippers all work really great. My only issue with it, is that it is very small. It reminds me of a hydration pack for those water bladders and the straws, like a camelbak. I wish it was a tide bigger, or longer. Since it is so small, it just looks a bit funny when you have it on, especially if you are of a larger frame. But other than that, I was easily able to fit in my tablet, a jacket, and some other personal belongings. The bottle pouches are elastic, so it can nicely hold the bottles tight. Overall, really light and great as an additional pack.
Because this is a folding pack, there is no structure to the pack and nothing against the back panel to keep contents from poking your back, so this is not made for extended use or for heavy items and I wouldn’t consider this as a daily hiking pack. But if you need something for travel or for some purchases, this will fit the bill nicely.
Pros:
– The pack is generously sized for a folding pack at 10-liters and is made from a durable ripstop water resistant nylon that is thicker than any other material I have seen on a folding pack.
– The zipper pulls have toggles made of 3mm cord, so they don’t jingle when walking and are plenty durable.
– There are two outside mesh pockets with elastic cuffs that are large enough to hold up to a 24-ounce water bottle.
– There is one outside zippered pocket for smaller essentials that has a key keeper hook, and it is lined with a lighter colored grey material so that it is easier to see the contents. There is also a small security pocket on the back panel.
– The outside back of the pack has a reflective tab onto which you can clip a blinky light.
– There is a durable grab-handle on top of the pack.
– There is light padding on the pack straps.
– It is very lightweight at only 10-ounces.
For a folding pack at around thirty dollars, I can’t think of any negatives other than it would have been nice if there was a storage pouch on one of the pack straps. Otherwise, this is a great packable pack for travel or keeping in your vehicle.
