Hey /out/, I am looking for a good backpack I can use for school and also for day hikes. Any recommendations?
>>
>price range
>style
>functionality
>length of trip
Give those details and the board might help you better. Or tear you apart because it's not what they like. Depending on who's lurking both might happen.
>>
>>631482
>price range
anything
>style
something that doesn't look autistic carrying around school.
>length of trip
I said day hike enough room to carry school books and or food/gear for a day hike.
>>
I can recommend http://www.amazon.co.uk/G4Free-Military-Tactical-Backpack-Rucksack/dp/B011IBE44M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1447708820&sr=8-1&keywords=g4free
Good space, big for a good EDC if thats what you like. Can carry food, sleeping system and shit like that for 1-2-3 days. Good space for books, pc you name it. If more space needed be there is molle. Also it's cheapish.
It does not have a hip belt (for more hiking style), and if molle is not your style this is not what you want.
>>
I think pretty much any bag that fits your school supplies will work for simple day trips.

This thread is a great example of what not to do in making a thread. Buy a jansport or something and fuck off.

This pack is extremely versatile both on campus, the trail and the runway. Lots of hooks, ropes and fringe for hours of tying, untying , tying again and more.

No. They are tactical telephone cords. How new are you?

I really like my Osprey Quasar. The MSRP is a bit pricey but I'm sure you'll be able to find them on sale.

That's not too bad considering the robbery that is motorcycle backpacks.
I was expecting you to link something in excess of $150

TNF gets a lot of shit on this board but their backpacks are perfectly fine for OP's needs.

go figure a lot of /out/ kids are probably hipsters too cool for school

>their backpacks are perfectly fine for OP's needs.

What are those needs? Looking cool while sitting in a closet with all your other unused gear?
>>
>>632050
No, did you actually read the thread? OP asked for a good backpack for both school and day trips. TNF makes exactly what he asked for.
>>
A North Face or Jansport will do the trick if you don't want something tactical looking or a bulky hiking pack.
>>
>>632053
I did. It's another faggot who wants to look like they are doing an activity without actually doing it.

This thread caught my eye because I've been looking for the same thing. My focus is more on a day bag which I can use for school as well (namely will carry my laptop and a pad of paper during the week, and will fit a day's provisions on a weekend venture)

A few preferences:
no molle webbing
hip belt
hydration bladder compatible
tough construction (I use my gear hard, it will be dragged over rocks, through thick brush, might be dropped at some point)
>>
>>631930
>>632000
Has anyone else had Osprey packs not fit them well? In my experience the shoulder straps are too close together and chafe on my neck

I think a motorcycle backpack might work for you.

This bag actually looks like it would be really good. It's so hard to find a bag made from 1000D Cordura that doesn't have fucking molle everywhere.

Does /out/ have any opinion?
>>
>>634167
I used it as a day pack while working at philmont scout ranch and used it for an overnight on two occasions when I could crash at staff cabins. Now I use it as my everyday school and going laces bag. Its a bit pricey but it makes up for it in durability/ruggedness and timeless/basic design. Its water resistant, the leather lash tabs are actually thick leather and wont tear, and it just looks hella sweet. I bought it to be the last day pack sized pack I buy for years to come and it has not disappointed me. It gets lots of compliments.

That's way later. I'll be going to physical therapy once we know for sure the implant is fully integrated and won't slip. My bone softened slightly and it shifted a tad. Right now all I'm supposed to do is walk.
I'm hoping by spring I can start doing babby steps.
>>
how $ should you spend on a day pack? $40 USD max?

>>635089

disk surgery? i slipped my disk when I was 13 feels bad man
>>
>>634192
different anon here, I dig the pack and even checked out the website, I think I'd prefer the mountain pack. If I were a richfag I'd buy both though.
>>
>>635128
Yeah. Multiple annular tears, big herniation. I got a replacement disc instead of a fusion.
I don't know to tell you the agony then lol. Hope you're feeling better.

I literally use this bag for just that I have had it for two or three years and
has lasted great with only cosmetic damage the main compartment is big and good for books or gear.

Last weekend I went camping with friends so I took my books out and put my gear in and then this
morning I just put my books back in and went to class. Can't recommend more.

Pic is backpack but mine is od green and doesn't have stupid embroidery on it.

Dat shit waterproof?
>>
>>635565
I have a rather low opinion of one-strap packs. They don't stay in place the way a traditional pack does, and they don't distribute load evenly. I wouldn't recommend one unless you personally have used and like that set up

That said, I don't know anything about that particular pack
>>
>>635595
not quite waterproof but pretty damn water resistant, you wouldn't need a pack cover.

I have pretty much the same reqs as OP, but I am looking for Mollee webbing. I'd like to be able to attach pouches for innawoods fun, but they're unnecessary and cumbersome for school/motorcycling

Looking to spend less than 100

I know JW is kind of seen as a meme brand but that bag is absolutely great for everything. I use it day to day for work and also on <4 day hikes.
>>
>>636280

How much are you willing to spend?
>>
>>634167
I'd rather have molle everywhere than the almost-no-attachment-points-except-for-proprietary-accessories thing that's the current fashion in hiking packs. Glad I got my gear in the 90s, don't know what I'd replace it with today.
>>
>>636333
Per my last line, less than 100. But I'd be willing to go a little higher if quality was there.

surplus is probably your best bet.

try: https://www.varusteleka.com/en/category/rucksacks-and-bags/137

mid size and large should work for you but shipping is pricey if us/other
>>
>>631478
Just go to rei for a bit and look in their day hiking backpack section.
>>
>>631478
I think osprey makes a day hike backpack.

What's a good "military backpack" for $100 or less? I've seen some in amazon but most reviews say they are shitty.

or any brand of good backpacks?

Alice pack or LK 35.
