Seems really good
4 out of 5 stars
Seems really good
I just received the item and have not used it and I cannot vouch for its long term durability or how well it stands up to rugged use etc.However the material seems really good. I have not tried the backpack in rain but the material really feels like it would repel water really well. The zippers are strong. The design is compact.It would be great f backpacks of different styles were made of this material, packs such as book bags and day packs .The pack folds into a pouch that is attached to the "inner neck" of the backpack. This is convenient since a lot of packable backpacks have pouches that separate from the rest of the backpack and it means that the pouch could get misplaced from the backpack. Of course a bit of a con is that the pouch is a bit narrow and it takes some maneuvering to put the entire pack in the pouch. It would be better if the attached pouch were made wider.But also I ordered the beige color and the color I received is slightly different (a bit more yellowish) than what it looks like on the site. I am not sure if I will return this one for a different color, but basically like this backpack.I will update on my findings .UPDATE June 7 2024I tried using the backpack for the first time this day. I do like the feel of the material. The zippers are strong and the construction is really good.Important con though: The shape of uppermost part of the pack is "C-shaped." The straps are not individually sewn to the top of the back of the pack with approximately an inch and a half of space between the straps as is more common in backpacks .. See photo to see comparason of designs.Of course the "C-shape" or "Rounded-shape" is supposed to be more "Ergonomic" because the part of the backpack that meets your neck and upper shoulders is more like the shape of a collarless vest and it is supposed to make the pack feel better on the back of your neck and shoulders. And, perhaps those who designed this backpack believe that this makes the backpack more comfortable to have on your shoulders.However What this design does is inherently make the straps go to the outer side of your shoulders as you wear the pack and the straps can more easily slide off to the sides of your shoulders. Of course it can depend if you have broad shoulders or sloping shoulders or it can depend on your own size, whether you are diminutive or large in physique, yet I would say in general this design will make the pack have a downward pull on your shoulders that can make your back and shoulders ache especially if the pack is filled with some heavy items but even the pack is empty or only has a few lightweight items in it this could still happen. If you are walking gravity makes the straps pull awkwardly on your shoulders you may eventually feel as much discomfort and pain or aches as if the pack had some heavy things in it.Also the pack does not have a waist strap. Of course smaller packs like this typically do not, but the material of the pack is a bit rigid ( which is good for more durability and some water resistance) but the pack will feel uncomfortable swinging side to side as you walk with it on your shoulders.So I would say that I do like this backpack very much. I think I will keep it. However there are some design flaws to it .Update 6-27-24I decided to return it and see if I can find a larger size. The smaller compartment is too small and the zipper does not open wide enough and I need to fit larger items in the smaller compartment and I cannot comfortably or easily fit my hand into the smaller compartment to get items out.

    High quality, aesthetic and quite functional. I guess my only negative was the width. It’s quite narrow and the side pouches for holding water bottles (small ones), aren’t real functional when things are packed into the bag as it’s tough to slide a water bottle into it. But regardless, it was a great add-on to the larger companion backpack that you could attach to.

    The G4Free 10L/15L Hiking Backpack is a compact, lightweight, and versatile option for outdoor enthusiasts and travelers. Here’s my detailed review:

    Pros:
    Ultra-Lightweight and Packable: This backpack is incredibly lightweight, making it ideal for day trips, short hikes, or as an extra travel bag. It folds into a compact pouch, perfect for stashing in luggage when not in use.

    Durable Material: The water-resistant nylon fabric is sturdy and holds up well against light rain and abrasions, making it reliable for outdoor adventures.

    Ample Storage: Despite its small size, the backpack features a main compartment, front zippered pocket, and side mesh pockets for water bottles or umbrellas, allowing for organized packing.

    Comfortable to Wear: The breathable mesh shoulder straps are adjustable and comfortable, even during extended use.

    Versatility: Whether you’re hiking, traveling, or heading to the gym, this backpack is a handy and practical choice.

    Cons:
    Limited Capacity: At 10L or 15L, this backpack is best suited for minimal gear. It may not be sufficient for longer trips or carrying bulky items.

    Minimal Padding: The lightweight design sacrifices padding, which means less protection for fragile items inside.

    No Frame Support: As a packable daypack, it lacks structural support, so it’s not ideal for carrying heavy loads.

    Final Thoughts:
    The G4Free 10L/15L Hiking Backpack is an excellent option for those who need a lightweight, packable, and affordable daypack. While it’s not designed for heavy-duty use, it excels in portability and convenience, making it perfect for short outings or as an emergency backup bag. Its durable and water-resistant design ensures reliability, and the compact storage size is a big plus for frequent travelers.

    I bought three different styles of bags to be used for day hiking. This was the one my dad picked out of the three. It is very lightweight and yet can store a lot of items. There is one outer zippered pocket, a spacious main zipped compartment with subdivisions inside. The two-way radio and some snacks usually end up in the outer pocket for ease of access, water bottles and sunscreen in the mesh side pockets, first aid kit and more water bottles inside. It can be worn on the back or on the front. While it could be collapsed down to a tiny size as shown in the photos, we usually do not bother for road trips; I can see how that might be advantageous if packing for a flight and limited on space. It has held up well across multiple road trips and day hikes.

    I wanted to love this pack and did love everything about it except the straps! The pockets are perfectly shaped & the water bottle holders are deep enough to hold my larger water bottles. It’s small but yet roomy & looks well made.

    But alas, the straps are not only set very wide off the back, the straps themselves are very wide & they slip right off my shoulders. They maybe should have added a cross strap that connects across the chest like my other packs have had. This would keep the straps from slipping off the back. I am sorry to have to return this, but I’ll be looking for another pack that the straps will fit me.

    I bought this while travelling to Thailand. It was the perfect size for all our day trips. I was pleasantly surprised on how much it would hold and still be lightweight. It does fold up and store away nicely but I found it took up less space in my suitcase not packed up. I would definitely recommend.
