KAILAS Hurricane 20L 26L Hiking Backpack Lightweight Trekking Daypack Small Backpacks for Traveling Camping Outdoor

I ordered both the 20L and the 26L bag in order to actually see the difference since the Kailas listing shows the same photo for both the 20 and the 26.There are some fairly significant differences, that you may be able to notice from the photos I’ve included. (See yard stick and beer can for size comparisons)1. The waist strap on the 26L has pockets built in on both sides. The 20L has none.2. The 20L has ONE main pocket with a single very small front pocket (about the size for sunglasses and small items.The 26L has TWO HUGE pockets; one against the back that holds a bladder and it shaped for the lumbar backing, then an additional pocket the entire length of the bag. Lots of room!As well as having a small pocket for things like sunglasses.3. The front open stretch storage is larger on the 26L and the locking clip stores protected under the logo. On the 20L the clip is exposed (minor detail).Both bags are very comfy (having not hiked with them yet, just tested around the house. The shoulder straps are insulated.One thing to note, as these are technically small DayPacks, the length between the shoulders and the waist strap need some dialing in, or the waist strap will come up very high on you.So far, from just an in-home try-on, these things really stack up to the competition, and I doubt there is much out there with these materials and features at this price point.

Read a lot of reviews for tons of different backpacks, ended up using this one on a weeklong trip to Disney World. Was surprised at how comfortable this was - not just lightweight, but actually comfortable to wear and didn't hurt my back or shoulders at all, even after wearing 12 hours straight! Also, didn't make my back sweat. We went in November, but temperatures were still in the 70s & 80s and my back was never sweaty - usually it is when I carry other packs and I noticed other people taking their packs off to rub their shoulders and their backs were wet with sweat. I was cool & comfortable! Plenty of room for what I wanted to bring in, enough pockets to keep track of small items, and the pockets on the side were perfect for a Life Straw water bottle that never fell out. I also really liked the front pouch that didn't zip, but had a clasp. It was stretchy and easy to access the stuff in there - I used it for sunglasses case and ponchos so I could get them out quickly as needed. I also liked that it held its shape - I had an 8x10 autograph book in the main pocket and because the back of the backpack is stiff, I didn't have to worry about it getting crumpled or damaged. This worked out really well for what I needed it for - highly recommend!

I bought this for a trip to Southeast Asia, and I wanted to stay cool. It is fantastic for that. Absolutely amazing. Never once did my back get sweaty in the sweltering humidity near the equator. It was so nice taking the pack off in the train or office and still wearing a relatively dry shirt. The side pockets are good, and once you master the motions you can grab a water bottle and put it back without having to take the pack off.Having said that, the reason I give it 4 stars is because of the unwieldy shape. The back has an internal hard frame and the shape is designed to arch to keep the pack away from the back. This makes it difficult to use as a general purpose pack. I managed to stick my small laptop in for a personal item on the flight, but I was worried it would bend because of the shape of the pack. You can stuff it full if you really try, but I would use it only as a day pack. It would be terrific both for hiking around the city or difficult hikes in Colorado.Also, the waist padding sat right on my hip bones. I'm size 42, which may contribute to that. I wasn't sore, it just took a bit to get used to. Your mileage may vary depending on use.Buy it, you won't regret it!

Exelente calidad.

I recently used this backpack on a trip and it is well designed, built, and comfortable.I was looking at more expensive hiking backpacks, but came across this one that has all the same features as some others that were twice as expensive.Some of my favorite features are the mesh back that keeps the backpack off your back some which allows air flow to your back. Along those lines the belt strap and chest strap helped keep all of the weight off my shoulders. I also liked the storage size which is more than enough for day hikes. One feature that pleasantly surprised me was using a water bladder for hikes (I bought a 3L one separately and put it in the backpack).

Purchased for a work/travel for work backpack. Holds a small laptop, chargers, notebook and tablet well. It forced me to minimize and not carry a lot of extra. Seems to be decent quality. Minimalist work backpack.

I got this to replace a much smaller day pack I had to accommodate some longer day hikes. My existing water bladder works in it and I made an insulated pouch for my bladder as that was the only thing I didn't get in this pack that I was looking for. I went with the 26 to get the waist belt pockets which I find great for chapstick, gym, eye drops and other small items I want to access easily. I would put this up against my husband's Osprey daypack. Excellent pack for the money and I love the color.
