Cotopaxi Luzon Backpack
Possibly the ultimate packable travel pack this folds down into its own pocket to tuck into your gear bag, then unfurls into a hydration ready pack with day hike and bike friendly features.
Why we like it:
At an almost laughable 10.5 ounces, and folded into its own pouch, you wouldn’t think there is much to this pack, but it’s hydration ready, has a comfortable harness system, a sternum and hip strap, and will carry my midlayer down puffy, hat, gloves and still have room for a PB&J.
Features and Functions:
The large main compartment of this bag has a separate hydration carry and even with a water bag in place this will fit a full sized bath towel. The top drawstring closure means you can stuff this thing, while a zip front pocket gives you a place to stash the small stuff so you’re not scrabbling around in the bottom of the bag. Ultralight shaped mesh shoulder straps are paired with a sternum strap and hip web for keeping this close to your body for biking.
Fit and Sizing:
An 18L pack measuring 51 x 34 x 12cm (20 x 11.25 x 5.1in)
Bottom Line:
A great little pack that folds down into itself for travel yet has room for a hydration bag and the straps for the hose built into the straps the Cotopaxi Luzon 18L Backpack is an unstructured pack and shines as a carry for spare layers on fast hikes and town tours.
