The ReFraction and FreeFly16 both nailed the case for a packable day pack – lightweight, weatherproof, and compact enough to throw in your main bag for day trips. The 18L Packable Backpack raises the bar across the board. Personal item compliant when packed out, it compresses into its own pocket when empty, and the LiteCush straps – structured, padded, breathable, and still packable – make it far more comfortable to carry than the flat shoulder-slashing webbing you normally get on packable bags. Weatherproof construction with DuraGlide sealing zippers handles British drizzle or tropical downpours with equal indifference. Two external zip pockets, dual water bottle pockets, a removable sternum strap, and side compression straps complete the picture. The pack that earns its right to take up space in your main bag and then some.
