Mountainsmith

Mountainsmith

If necessity is the mother of invention, frustration could easily be the father. Mountainsmith founder Patrick Smith was motivated by both when he tried to find a functional, durable backpack that was easy to carry in the 1970’s. When the bags he tried came up short on comfort and convenience, he began building his own. Since that time, Mountainsmith has become a leader in travel systems built to take the rigors of the journey, from rugged trails to baggage carousels. From their signature bright yellow linings (to help you find what you need in the dark) to hundreds of user-friendly extras, Mountainsmith makes innovative packs, camera bags and luggage for travelers who like to stay comfortably organized. Take the burden off your back and your wallet, wherever you roam, with a quality bag or pack from Mountainsmith.

Bought this for Day/Light overnight hiking, biking, skiing, etc.- I've been very impressed by the fit and quality. all zippers and straps work well and are well thought out. Lots of little details that just "work". I'd buy another product from this company in a heartbeat, based on my experience with this pack.

STRONG, HANDSOME, RUGGED, ATTRACTIVE UTILITY BAG THAT I USE FOR WORK AND PLAY. GREAT IN THE CANOE BECAUSE OF THE WATER RESISTANT RUBBER BOTTOM. LOTS OF ROOM IN THE "SMALL" BAG. IF I ORDERED A LARGER SIZE I MAY NOT BE ABLE TO LIFT IT AND ITS CONTENTS OFF OF THE GROUND! I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THIS PURCHASE AND AM EVEN THINKING ABOUT GOING BACK FOR MORE.

Comments:
I bought two and store combination of waders and wader boots and a few other things associated with paddle power. But wanted 3 more to use to store our mulitple sleeping bags instead of old king size pillow cases making them hard to keep on the shelves these would be great. But they were out. Maybe I'll have to make something similar on my own then. Have all the materials from zippers to straps and fabic just taking the time. It would be nice though. I would like to see something you could place over the net top of these to protect from moisture or rain however while you travel with them. Otherwise the netting allows for air compression.

Bottom Line:

Comments:
I use this system for everything from groceries from costco--I hate all that cardboard!--to carrying 40-50 12" boards for martial arts test/demonstrations. Also great for keeping my 4 kids' clothes separated when traveling. It's a great system for anyone who is active and needs organization. Bought my sister-in-law one for x-mas.
