Gelindo18L-Hiking Hydration Backpack

My son loves it!

Like the color, my son uses it for airsofting and dirt bike riding. An awesome buy for sure!

The design of the backpack was strange. The shoulder straps are so wide at the top that the backpack wont stay on. I have pretty wide shoulders, I mean my back isnt 27in wide or anything but Ive never come across a backpack that didnt sit even on my back.. I returned it, Ill find something else.

Everything else was great but you need a 28 in waist to buckle it.

Great product definitely recommended!

Once you fill the bladder full of water theres almost no storage just enough room for a knife and maybe a few snacks thats about it. not very impressed but I guess you get what you pay for.

First off I field tested this at Burning Man. All things considered, its a good pack. Just as a hydro pack its a bit bulky. The insulation did help keep my back dry as my bag of ice water melted, and the padding was great to have when it was loaded up for a long shift of Rangering. The cons are... Storage was tight! The middle section (with webbing) that expands is deceptively small. Because all of the pockets are narrow at the bottom, the netted pocket fans out, and expands at the top. You do not get the full depth of expansion. The pockets (main water pack and small one) are narrow, maybe two fingers of gap. With a full bladder, I could put snacks in the main pocket that I wanted to be kept cool. Once zipped up, the netting suddenly lost a lot of room. The net with a clip (in front of main bag) I could put a small field journal and that made it a little easier to slide a extra shirt into the expanding webbing area. The clip held my goggles nicely. The small front pouch held quick snacks, pens, spare batteries, tiny headlamp... That all sounds good right? It was STUFFED! Really Hard to get into! Zippers worked fine, everything just felt cramped. More often than not Id have to unpack, repack to get to things and make everything fit again. Could be it all needs to stretch out, or I need more than two weeks of daily working with it to figure it out. It cleaned up nicely after the Burn. Its functional. If your not trying to carry everything, it probably would be easier to use. Like I said, its a good bag over all. Just dont plan on bringing the kitchen sink, keep it minimal and youll be happy with it. Insulation works great!

The quality was better than I expected

Good backpack. Just got to keep it slightly open to drink from the mouth piece.

I love this back pack! Works great for hiking and I carry my firearm in it. Holds a lot of items in the pockets -
