Reviews
FYI - Great Elopement Pack!
"While on the hunt for a small and decent looking hiking pack for my elopement (which entailed 7 miles of hiking), I came across this pack and coincidentally the colors matched my hiking boots that I had already purchased! Looks aside, this is actually a very nice quality pack for shorter hiking or even to use outside of hiking purposes. I like the compartments and fasteners that are built in. It served its purpose for our occasion and I will certainly continue to use it for our shorter hiking excursions! Thought I would share in case anyone in the same boat needs some insight!"

Love love love!!
"I got these backpacks for my entire team, and we could not love them more!! 🙌 They’re so spacious, durable, and have plenty of room for everything we need. They’re the perfect work backpack and look even better in person! Highly recommend! ❤️"

My Everyday Carry
"This bag goes with me everywhere. I use it to carry my laptop and other everyday essentials as I'm on the move from the office to jobsites. If I've got a short hike planned, it's great to carry an extra layer/shell, some snacks and a couple water bottles. I've put this thing to the test and it's holding up extremely well."

Great purchase!
"I got my backpack in August and I have been using it for almost three weeks! It’s incredible! It fits a lot more than it initially looks like it would. As a student, I often have to pack textbooks, lunches, water bottle, coffee, computer, chargers, etc. I never have trouble getting all my stuff in the bag."

Great functionality, colors different than pictured
"Awesome functionality, with the high quality and good looks that Topo is know for. My only complaint is that the color of the pack I ordered is different than what's pictured on the website. I ordered the "Forest" pack, which looks like a two-toned green and grey pack on the website; when it arrived, it's just green (granted, it's two slightly different tones of green)! Not a deal breaker, just a little disappointing."

Great classic
"Slim and tall profile which is good, but may have some issues with accessing your stuff since it’s top loading. Love that it has side water bottle pockets and a quick stash pocket up top. Front bottom pocket is a little tight, so can’t really put bulky items. 4 Compression straps may be overkill for an already slim bag, but you can use it to secure things on with carabiners from the side pockets or to pack your bag flat for travel."

Love it
"I love the consistent brown color with just a touch of of other colors. It has a perfect space for my laptop and a couple of pockets for small items. The water bottle holders are a bit small. My water bottle doesn’t fit in the them. It is smaller than I expected, which is good for me because it keeps me organized. Really comfortable."

Perfect day pack
"Recently took this pack on a two week trip to Finland and Iceland. It was perfect for international travel. All airport documents at your fingertips with the onside pockets. I couldn’t have been better organized. Inside pouch big enough for a good book, snacks and knitting! There is nothing I would change. It was the perfect size."

Great overall with a few downsides
"Pros: Nice material and zippers, everything in the bag feels secure and safe, aesthetically pleasing Cons: Not many separated pockets, the straps can be loud when flapping around as I’m walking, water bottle holder is secure but somewhat difficult to put the bottle into"

A Bag That Can Actually Keep Up!
"This bag has become part of the story now, not just something I carry. I brought it along on a trip to Garden of the Gods, and by the end of that first afternoon the straps had already picked up a little bit of the Colorado sun, warm to the touch, like the bag itself had been out there hiking with me. Every time I sling it over my shoulder now, I think back to those red rock formations and that big open sky. The midnight colorway is sharp without trying too hard, and the fabric and attention to detail are genuinely impressive. It holds its shape, the stitching feels built to last, and it's proven itself to be more than up to the task of real outdoor use. Highly recommend if you want a bag that can actually keep up with you."
