Reviews

Style and Utility

"Love this pack! Side note: how are all Topo products so stylish? I've mostly been using this while snowboarding, but honestly great for pretty much anything. It's great that it has quite a few pockets for smaller things, computer, water bottle, and then the large sack for layer, gear, etc. I like that I can wear this on the mountain or in town."

Great quality

"Love this bag! I purchased my Klettersack from the Topo Design Store in Boulder more than 10 years ago and it still looks great. The green color still looks vibrant. My favorite things about this bag: 1) The style 2) Durability 3) the shape 4)the oversized zippers 5) the color. The main compartment can fit quite a bit but will still fit under the airplane seat in front of you. I use this bag as a carry-on as well as for hiking. When it gets dirty, I hand wash it in the utility sink and hang it dry. It still looks good as new. For easy access, I use a carabiner to clip my water bottle to the accessory D-Ring on the front of the shoulder straps. This works better for me than using the water bottle pockets."

No Longer Made in the U. S.

"Bought mine many years ago and it's a medium-sized bag that can get some extra room if you cram at the top. Sad to see that these bags are no longer handmade in Colorado as the originals were. It's my impression that the Topo products I have used that were made overseas are inferior to those that were Made in the USA."

Excellent travel pack

"Bought this bag due to the rave reviews of previous model and fact this has laptop back entry. Added some organization bags…this pack is perfect for travel. Durable material and heft zippers unlike most bags made today. Seen issues with water bottle pocket but this thing holds a 32oz zojurushi perfectly. I have laptop, 2 iPads, cords, logi ball mouse, files, notebook, meds, Sonicare toothbrush in case…with plenty of room for more stuff like a jacket. Like the flap pocket. Even with all the stuff in it feels lighter on back than a previous North Face…keeps the weight closer to body. Great pack wish the taco bag advertised was available for purchase for one more internal storage bag."

Great duck camo

"I bought this to use as a diaper bag. I’m not due until June but I can’t wait to use it!"

— Pearl S. (5/5)

"Excellent quality with a timeless duck camo pattern. Love that the interior is a nice contrasting color so its easier to find things in the bottom of the bag."

— Sean (5/5)

Eh

"Quite costly for what it is. Decided to return the Kluttersack and get something smaller, smarter, more convenient. probably different brand."

— Jevy R. (3/5)

LOVE this bag!

"This is my first Topo bag after wanting one for years! I am so happy with it, wish I hadn't waited so long lol. The bag is tough and looks like it will last a very long time. I love all the attachment options and its classic look."

— Christine (5/5)
