Roam 25L Hiking Daypack - Ultra Lightweight Packable Backpack - Durable, Water Resistant Folding Backpack for Travel, Camping

I just ordered my second Roam Lightweight Backpack because once your family and friends see yours they are going to want one also. I got it in black and I love it. It arrives and is this small pouch that you unzipper and the backpack unfolds. The pouch then becomes the front pocket. Pretty cool! There are plenty of pockets and it even comes with an attached carabiner which you can use to secure your keys if the zipper is left open. The size is perfect... not too big and not too small. It has large pockets on each side for your water bottles as well. The zippers appear strong and open and close easily without catching on the material. The material seems water resistant. I sprayed the front with the hose from my kitchen sink and the water slid right off however this backpack cannot be submerged in water. It has a chest strap that is adjustable. This is very important for women so the strap can be placed in a position that is comfortable either above or below your chest. I placed the chest strap below my bust (38D) because I didn't want to feel squeezed. This backpack is good for men, women and kids. It's very lightweight and not too masculine or feminine looking. I would say it has a sporty look and can be used for hiking or camping as well as school or a weekend bag. For the price you really can't go wrong. The only reason this may not be the backpack for you is if you are planning on getting it very wet. It can take some rain and splashing but that is all I would trust it with if you have anything of value inside. Buy it, it's a nice lightweight backpack.

Perfect timing! I saw a friend's review of this pack just when I had been thinking I need a new backpack for cycling and walking. So I decided to get one and have been using it for a week. It's good quality and the fabric is light but strong and water resistant.I've been carrying my 10" laptop, along with books, and other items and it, and it feels good on my back and shoulders. The shoulder straps don't dig into my shoulders like other daypacks I've had and are easy to adjust once it's on the back. I haven't tried to fold it back into the large front pocket but that's another cool function of the pack.There are two good sized front pockets with one small zip pocket on the outside of the top front pocket that holds my phone and is great for headphone wire because it zips up and holds the headphone wire in place! The main pack interior has a divided section that fits a laptop, or folders, etc, and helps to keep things in place.The zippers are good quality and don't get stuck. All in all, it's a great pack, holds a lot of stuff and the price is definitely spot on!

This back pack is great! I posted a bunch of photos to show how much it can hold. I bought it to use at Disneyland and California Adventure, but will definitely use it other places too. I was able to fit everything I needed in this pack. In the bottom front pocket, I fit 2 juice boxes, two granola bars and a sandwich size bag of Cheez-its. In the top front pocket I fit smaller personal items, including my wallet, tissues, lip balm, reading glasses, and two more granola bars. On the top of the top front pocket is a diagonal zipper pocket which fit my phone. The main compartment fit my sweatshirt, wipes pack, small bag for personal items (which I put behind the divider), two apples, a bag of pretzels, and a bag of cookies. As you can see, from the side view, there was plenty more space in the bag. Although I didn't take my camera to the park with me that day, I put that in the pack as well, just to give reference of how roomy the bag is. The zipped up photos have the camera bag in the pack. The Dasani water bottles are the 16 ounce size. We've put larger water bottles in the side mesh pockets as well. I took photos of myself with the pack on. I'm 5'5" tall and weight 195 lbs. The pack fits me nicely and the straps did not dig into my arms at all. I did notice it a little bit when I didn't have my sweatshirt on, but i just loosened the straps a bit. It's a very comfortable back pack to wear all day. I took a photo of my husband with the pack on too. He is 6 feet tall and weighs 180. He didn't care for how the pack fit, but it was no problem for me. It rained while we were there, so the last photo is of the pack when it was wet. It was truly waterproof, as nothing in the pack got wet. The material is strong and takes a lot. It folds up very nicely into the front bottom pocket to make it compact in size. This back pack does not stand up on its own because of the material it's made of, but when it's packed up, it sits rather nicely. I'm looking forward to using this back pack for a while. We've used it for several trips to Disneyland and California Adventure, where I've packed it with 6 water bottles, snacks, a lunch bag, 2 sweatshirts, and personal items. It's held up very well. Get it! You'll like it.

This backpack is nice in that the material is very thin and lightweight, it folds up into a small sack for portability. I used it as a travel/personal size item for a week long flight and road trip vacation. Flying United, their personal item limit is very small and this one fit the requirements technically, however I could have easily fit a similar style bag at least twice this size into the personal item tester without any issue. In the future I will use this as a spare bag crammed into my luggage or in the car to have for any last minute items I pickup when out exploring.As others have pointed out, the zipper setup on this particular model doesn't stay closed as well as most other backpacks and I was worried I would lose something. The direction that some of the pouches open don't lend to helping the zipper issue either.

use it daily . 2 side pockets for drinks, fits a lot of stuff, outside pockets, best foldable bag i have ever had

Bought this back pack to go camping for a couple days the the strap snapped the first day. Didn’t overfill the bag at all and it just came apart! Not happy with the purchase at all

This is outstanding and great product small but so practical would recommend this for using on short walks and day's out .

Bought for my holiday. After 2 days holes starting appearing and within 4 days there were 3 holes inside and a 6 inch hole on the main compartment which meant it could t be used safely. My daughter had one which was a lot cheaper which was great and a lot stronger. The stitching and seams are very weak on this item. Rubbish!

Not very impressed ! On the second week of use one of the main zips broke !
