backpacks

I tried my best to not make a new topic here , I'm sure experienced travelers get this question a lot and get's tiresome after a while. I guess I'll get right into it. I plan on traveling to Texas in early April , I've never traveled at all , let alone just me and a backpack. My plan is to...

Hey guys. Well, I'm in England and looking at heading of (To London, to find a squat) in the next month and a half, depending on funds. I've got almost all the stuff I need. Everything apart from a pack. What I shall be packing, not including what I will be wearing, is (Keep in mind, I'm 6...

A dry bag that has the fold top is the shit. They sell them cheap at wall mart. Prolly easy to jack. Keep clothes dry and even fill up with water and wash your shit in there. i've hid my shit in the woods for a long time. I've even used them as a ghetto fridge by digging a hole in the ground and...

About how much stuff would be able to fit in a pack that is approximately 40 liters with the measurements of 24 inches x 13.5 inches x 8 inches ?

Well I just poured through the whole backpack section here all morning and still cannot figure out which pack would be best for me. The ALICE packs tend to pop up a lot. My buddy has a medium and I tried it out, it is really fucking bulky (not sure if it's because he has a ton of shit strapped...

I'm lookin for a reliable lightweight pack that can carry a sleeping bag, maybe a small tent an other essentials. like some clothes or whatever. any help would be appreciated. thanks

Where I live, in the middle Georgia area, the only A/N store closed years ago (the building is still there however if you want to squat there). Although this is a base area it's pretty much impossible to get stuff like packs and tents unless you go to Academy or Dick's, where they charge a hefty...

are you going to be in the Seattle area time soon? Does your pack have a broken zipper? Are your favorite pair of jeans getting trashed? Does your tent have a hole in it? I possess a industrial sewing machine! If you need repairs, and don't mind a potentially miss matched color, i will fix...

I'm trying to think of a way to attach my day pack (just a regular messenger bag) to my travel pack. My travel pack has a external frame with a bar that sticks out about half a foot up and I was thanking that would be the perfect spot. I originally thought the buckles from shopping carts to clip...

Alright so I'm about to take off down the road in a couple weeks. I've got a backpack and a sleeping bag, but my only problem is that my backpack only has shoulder straps, and I'm not going to be able to get a new pack anytime soon. Is there any way I can attach my sleeping bag to this backpack...

I bought my first Chrome bag (the big one, 100$Nchange) in Berkeley early this year. I broke it in riding up and down the bay, tools in tote (did some contractor work but dont tell nobody). Its a simple no thrills design, flap top. just a big messenger bag(water resistant rubber liner). I...

Hey guys. I suffer from scoliosis, and carrying a pack of above 15lb on my back is painful for both my neck and lower pack, due to my condition. I have been looking for altrnatives to the conventional rucksack, and have came across the US Military Butt bag and small ALICE-style (Not real...

Currently planning a one way trip halfway across the country (Orange County, CA to Chicago) and I feel like I am lacking the bare minimum for a pack. I currently have a larger size backpack. Should I just buy a medium alice pack? I plan on packing: (one of the following clothing items will be...

Hey, I'm looking to make a glorified fanny pack for stashing treats and tools in for a future trip. Doesn't have to be too crusty, but practical. I'm thinking a few pockets for organizations, between 2 and 3. Anyone have diagrams or patterns? Or can you tell me what works best for fastening...

Which do you think is better, an ALICE pack or a CFP-90 pack? Got a reason why?

i've got a large alice with frame thats just too much. good for movin, rubber trampin and pack rats but not so much for hippin the hoppin. lookin for a medium... frame or no frame doesnt matter.

I tend to pack heavy because I like a few added luxuries in my travels and i want to know from you heavy packers which pack is best and what you find to be most durable. I prefer external frame packs because there s a place for the bedroll without having to unload things to dig it out. I have...

hello! I'm lookin' to get a good pack for a trip south this spring... but the ones I have around are kind of enormous and impractical as all get out. i was wondering if anyone knows of a good pack for smaller people? i'm 5'3 and 105 pounds. sorry if this is a silly question, I just don't...
