Venture Pal 35L Ultralight Lightweight Packable Foldable Travel Camping Hiking Outdoor Sports Backpack Daypack

I have a bigger version of this backpack that I use more, but I like this one as well.It’s a strong, well-made backpack that really comes in handy for trips. Sometimes I travel with a tote bag or a regular backpack. I like to take the foldable backpack as well because sometimes I get tired holding up my tote bag on one shoulder when this backpack easily uses two shoulders and is waterproof for those unexpected European showers.Many pockets inside. Two side pockets for water bottles or an umbrella. Straps that tighten and buckle them in securely. This is wonderfully lightweight and a good deal.

I want to start by saying that I love this backpack. It's a simple backpack, but does the job well I just returned from a 20 day trip to Peruvian Andes where I took a 70L Osprey hiking backpack, a Northface computer backpack and this folding backpack. This backpack was perfect when I wanted to walk around town, Incan ruins etc and didn't want to carry my larger bulkier gear. What works? 1. It fold up into a small footprint that can be easily stowed in either larger bag I had 2. it has the ability to carry two tall Gatorade bottles with straps to keep them from falling out. 3. I could carry a Northface puffy jacket in a cinch sack and still had room for other items 4. Inside pockets / dividers that keep things in their place. What this pack isn't: 1. Do not plan on carry heavy things for long distances. This pack is not designed for you to hiking up and down mountains. It's not designed for shifting gear and lateral movement. 2. The shoulder straps are not designed for heavy loads. If you want a pack with padded straps, this is not the right gear for you.All in all, I was very happy with the pack. It'll bring it with me on future trips when I need something light and convenient to carry stuff for errands, museum trips or easy sightseeing.

It's a nice lightweight backpack. Well thought out pockets, mesh side pockets that actually hold water bottles. The zippers are a bit weak so I'm not sure how long it will last. But for the price it's worth it.

I bought this backpack to take on a cruise in 2022. Since then, I've started using it for hiking as well as it holds everything I need for a day hike and it's water resistant and not nearly as heavy as my daypack. I'm not sure it holds 35L, but it holds what I need. I've been taking it on flights as well as my "under the seat" personal item. It fits under the seat nicely, although I never have it stuffed full - usually my purse and camera. I've carried my DSLR and a zoom lens in there, which are kind of heavy, and I've never had any issues with straps tearing. I do agree that it would nice if the straps were a bit padded because it's not comfortable with a heavy load, however, I doubt that it would be foldable and that is a nice feature to have. It started out as my travel backpack and now it's my for everything backpack. I've used it a lot over the last three years and I highly recommend it. FYI...I don't do reviews as soon as I receive an item - I try them out first. This is a keeper.

This is hands down the best travel backpack! I love how it folds up compactly and fits easily into a suitcase, making it a perfect addition to any trip. It's incredibly functional and easy to refold, which is a huge plus.While the fabric isn't super thick, I’ve had this backpack for years without any rips or quality issues—it’s surprisingly durable! The size is just right for hiking, weekend trips, or all-day excursions. It doesn’t have built-in security features, but the pockets are well-placed, and I’ve never had any issues keeping my items secure.I loved it so much that I bought another one in a different color! My only small complaint is that it doesn’t hold its shape unless it’s fully packed, and the straps have minimal padding. That said, as a chronic overpacker, I really appreciate that it folds down into a tiny square to save space.I highly recommend this backpack and often suggest it to friends. If you need something lightweight, packable, and reliable, this is a great choice!

I bought my pack in September 2017.. It has been on all 7 continents 🌎plus above the Arctic Circle❄️ It shows no wear. Is highly flexible on what you can pack in it. I have even wrapped my Nikon DSLR camera and a separate lens in multiple towels to carry separately. It is soooooo light weight but durable. It is not waterproof though. You put a lot in this pack! You will love it!It is the PERFECT SIZE to put under seat on plane. This pack, through my world travels, is the best purchase I have made. I also you it for hiking as my Camelback water bladder fits in it perfect. Cross country ski pack too!Enjoy
