A Day Pack Worth Packing? You Gotta Be Kidding Me!

By , About.com GuideDecember 19, 2007

Follow me on:

wanderlite packable day packRecently I've noticed that more and more people dissatisfied with cheap, mass produced luggage have gone off and started producing their own innovative designs. I like that.

Chinatown in San Francisco is loaded with cheap day packs, all with the same padded straps and cheaply padded backs--things that add weight and bulk but not much else for the person looking for a day pack to stuff in the luggage and maybe use on the occasional hike along the Cinque Terre coast. Afterwards a sturdy, packable day pack might be loaded up with all the junk bought on vacation and used as a spare carry-on bag.

What if I told you that the day pack in the picture could be packed into a 3 x 3 x 5" bag? It's not made of gossamer threads either; it's made of heavyweight 420d nylon packcloth, and they guarantee it for life. Is the Wanderlite too good to be true? Read our Wanderlite Packable Day Pack Review and decide for yourself.
