Blacks Charge 20+5

£20.00

Features like the headphone collar for your mp3 player make this more of a general use pack, suitable for the daily commute as well as the great outdoors. Some other bits such as the mesh side pockets don’t feel as useful as they could be, not being large enough to hold a water bottle of any kind. There is a ...

Gelert Swerve 25

£20.00

This 25-litre daysack from Gelert is very comfortable to wear, despite its very short back length, with the bulk of the load definitely being directed through the padded cushion that sits on the small of your back. The concave back system works well, and the webbing waist belt looks flimsy but doesn’t feel uncomfortable. With an easy access zipped main ...

Sprayway Stella

£20.00

A tall, slim and lightweight pack that only costs an unbelievable £20. Features are kept to a minimum, although it boasts two pockets in the lid, a zipped pocket inside, and two side mesh pockets that will take a water bottle. The main compartment is long and narrow, with a single-buckle lid and drawcord closure. It’s a nicely styled pack ...

Eurohike Pathfinder 20

£24.00

This is a pack designed in a classical way. It’s not exactly NASA in its technicality, more straightforward and dependable, and as such not particularly exciting. The fabric used is fairly hard-wearing and will survive a few scrapes without any discernable damage. In wet weather you will need to make sure your kit is waterproofed inside. There is a rain ...

EUROHIKE WILDERNESS AIR

£25.00

Review: The concave back system was cool and effective without holding the load too far away from the back, and the straps had all the right adjustment and felt comfortable when done up. Cheap plastic buckles and a slightly flimsy polyester fabric make it obvious that this is a budget-end pack, but it carries well enough, even when full, and ...

Gelert Summit 25

£25.00

This daysack from Gelert boasts a concave airflow back system – great on a pack of this price – and this one works fairly well, keeping you cool and comfy. It’s quite short though, and sits quite high up your back. It certainly feels stable and stays cool enough due to that airflow back. Compression straps help steady the load ...

Regatta Survivor Access 25L

£25.00

This daysack from Regatta has a shortish back-length, meaning it always feels a bit high up on your back. Other than that, the channelled padding feels cool and comfortable and the harness provides sufficient support. It’s comfortable and stable in action, and the selection of pockets can’t be faulted. However, it isn’t hydration system compatible.

Robens Tacoma 25

£25.00

Low-priced option for those on a budget not looking for too much carrying power. Very small with only limited pockets, which will suit those not demanding too much for their money. Decent concave/mesh back system that is both cool and comfortable, and it also felt quite stable. The walking pole holders leave a bit to be desired, but it is ...

Outwell Hiker rucksack

£27.00

An inexpensive pack and therefore understandably quite basic, but the Hiker still does the job, and is ideal if you tend to stick to shorter, easier walks where all you need is some water and a few snacks. The back system is flimsy and offers limited ventilation, but the harness does a reasonable job with plenty of adjustment where needed. ...

Aztec Cerro 35

£28.00

This daysack from Aztec has a channelled back that is cool enough, but it’s a little flimsy so careful packing is needed. The shoulder straps are well padded and reasonably positioned, but the chest strap is a little high. Although not as substantial as some and with fewer bells and whistles, the Cerro doesn’t feel too bad on your back, ...

Aztec Airstream

£30.00

This 25-litre daysack from Aztec has a shortish back, yet still feels comfortable on, with useful padding at the top and bottom. The shoulder straps are well padded and nicely contoured, and there’s a fair bit of adjustment, up and down, in the chest strap. The teardrop-shaped Airstream has a zipped main compartment. It feels stable on the back and ...

Outwell Adventure Tour 2010

£30.00

For general daypack duties the Outwell Adventure Tour offers good value. It feels perfectly stable when on, features a ventilated back system and is pretty light at around 1180g. It has a rain cover, is hydration pack-compatible and features a functional outer pocket. But the lack of articulation in the hip area means others are more comfortable and offer a ...

Eurohike Revolution Aqua

£30.00

Waterproof, courtesy of a fully lined main compartment and lid pocket that comes with roll-up closures, but it does add weight, and makes it fiddlier than most to pack and access. Aside from this, it’s comfortable and stable, and handles big weights extremely well, thanks to well-padded shoulder straps and hip fins. Fitwise, the channelled back is quite short; and ...

Robens Fairbanks 35 2009

£30.00

The Robens Fairbanks 35 rucksack weighs 1003g; medium back; low price; top pocket plus zip pocket; front bungees; 2 elasticated mesh side pockets; one pole or ice axe loop; simple vented back; black raincover; basic padded hipbelt. But it’s 5 litres undersize at 30 litres so may not be big enough; would benefit from more lid or sack front pockets ...

Eurohike Aqua Revolution 35

£30.00

This 30-40 litre rucksack weighs 1115g; well-padded back system; zipped front and side pockets; mesh wand pockets; compression straps; removable rain cover (58g); roll-top closure waterproof liner in lid pocket. But compression straps don’t allow much compression; zipped front access not ideal when a liner is used; waterproof-lined lid pocket is an odd addition as the main compartment is not ...

Eurohike Revolution Aqua 35

£30.00

This daysack from Eurohike has a padded back that is extremely comfortable at first, but the shallow channels don’t encourage much airflow, so you will get a little hot and sweaty. Overall fit is good though, and the well-padded shoulder straps are good. It’s a stable pack with a single compression strap on each side and a close-fitting back. Well-featured, ...

Regatta X-Cert Lightweight 20L

£30.00

It’s certainly stripped back, with no waist strap, and only a flimsy padded back system for strength and comfort. You have to be careful when loading it to keep soft kit towards your back and you can’t overfill it (which is all too easy to do) otherwise it will sit uncomfortably. There are a couple of mesh side pockets, normally ...

Regatta X-ERT II

£32.00

This comfortable 20-25 litre daysack from Regatta feels great on the shoulders and hugs the top of your hips. The Airstream concave back system works well to keep you cool and dry, and the shoulder straps are heavily padded and well-shaped. The back length is about perfect, and the chest strap offers plenty of adjustment up and down. It’s a ...

Blacks Alpine 30+5 (2011)

£35.00

No award-winner but a fairly capable pack for the price. There are a few technical features that you’d expect to find in a decent walking pack, albeit not quite as well executed as on more expensive bags. A padded back system does boost comfort and keep the load tight to your back, but has no venting at all which does ...

But it’s the third heaviest at 1534g; ...

Gelert Core 45+10 2008

This rucksack has a good adjustable Cool Air back system; lots of padding on back and hipbelt; wand pockets; side compression straps; snow-lock extension; twin main compartments; floating lid with internal and external pockets and stowed rain cover. But 1800g is very heavy; do you need the adjustable back length, base compartment and bellows side pockets that add all this ...

Vango Tiree 25 unisex rucksack

£35.00

The Vango Tiree 25 unisex rucksack has a good, channelled back system – comfortable, cool and it holds the load close to your back. The Vango Tiree 25 hip belt is comfy, too, but the shoulder straps feel a little too padded. A good size for day-walks and we like the double lid pocket – useful for separating regularly needed ...

All the basic features are provided. The pocket on the front of the pack is a good size and will allow you to access an OS map quickly. You ...

Regatta X-ERT 35L 2010

The best ‘budget buy’, the Regatta X-ERT 35L (1280g) almost achieves great things: it’s light, perfectly comfy up to a certain load and has an adjustable, ventilated back system. But it has some very eccentric features: most notably the large external pocket with a tiny zipped entrance, two tiny-capacity side pockets and a hidden key stash. Stockists – tel. (0161) ...

Regatta X-ERT 25

£35.00

Regatta X-ERT 25 unisex rucksack has an effective concave back system that’s both cool and comfortable. The Regatta X-ERT 25 has well-padded straps that feel soft and spread the load well, although they are perhaps a bit too padded for a pack of this size. Quite heavy, the X-ERT is a little over-elaborate for 25 litres. That said, it has ...
