it's a walmart type pack. Heavy and will not last long with use. If it's just for a bob that will set in your trunk or basement it's fine. If you are going to use it for backpacking, look at osprey , TNF or Gregory. Much better packs.

A frind has one and I've seen them mentioned many times as a good entry-level/budget pack. Of course an Osprey, Gregory, REI etc would be much better all around but those are also typically 3-4x the price. My friends pack is 60L iirc, and seems to do well for weekenders.
If you're just day hiking, you don't need anything near 50L. A 20L is more than enough. |

If you want a budget 50l, look for a Jansport katahdin instead. I have seen those as low as 50 bucks new.

A guy I go to school with carries one literally packed full of books. Held up for at least a year!
