Nice pack. Nice materials.
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Bought this pack to replace 10 yr old camelback which I use almost daily for cycling and trail running. I opted for the larger pack to make sure I had plenty of room and to make it more versatile for using while traveling. Prob should have stuck w the smaller pack. I’m not a huge fan of the 3 way zipper system. I personally don’t see the advantage of having instant access to things in bottom of your pack in a pack this small, and in a pinch if you need to carry something too large to fit, the three way zippers are not going to hold it closed if something needs to hang out. Not a deal breaker, just my 5 cents worth. Pack materials are lightweight compared to most packs. I’d like it to be a little more rigid, but that’s just a personal preference and time will tell if the materials hold up. This pack will get rained on a lot so we shall see how that goes-I loved the rain fly that was zipped into the bottom of the camelback mule as I used it many times. Biggest complaint I would have about this pack is the storage of a hydration bladder-it’s not separated enough, comes out at an awkward place, and there aren’t any loops that seem to be positioned right for the tube. This is a must for a trail running pack for me so I may need to go another direction if I can figure something better out. I love the pockets on the front straps. I’m getting used to there not being a lower belt strap, it doesn’t flop, I don’t trust the rear outside pockets without a tie at top which I have added. Again-biggest unanswered part of this review is durability and rain proof for me.

Day Pack
Great fit with the running vest straps. Back is extremely light, but still feels durable.

Love the runner vest shoulder straps!
I have the Coulee 25 which I love, but really wanted the runner vest shoulder straps. So far it's great, carries well, love the colorway (fox), and the shoulder straps feel great to carry around loads on the trail, to work, and in town. Only thing I could call out is that the side water bottle pouches are a bit short, making me feel not so confident about putting my water bottle in it during rough hiking trips or downhill runs. Looking forward to using this as my go-to bag for 2024!
