Overall great, lightweight pack for dayhiking
I tested out the bag on a small hike and it was wonderful! It was very lightweight even though I was carrying multiple water bottles. The weight distribution seems very good. There's a good pouch on the inside for putting credit cards and keys. There's also an inner pocket that allows you to separate items some. The front zipper part I unfortunately found to be a bit small. The only thing I could put in there really was a packet of tissues. It confused me that there was no easy place to put a cell phone. Another negative was the bottom strap that goes around the belly. It is very small and would only fit around pretty fit, thin women. Someone with a larger stomach wouldn't even be able to use it.
PROS:
-Lightweight
-Great color
-Outer pouches for water bottles + straps to make them secure
-Can hold a lot of items
-Comfortable fit
CONS:
-No easy, separate pouch for cell phones
-Small bottom waist strap
-Front zipper pouch too small for varied use
