Ozark Trail Daypacks & Backpacks: 28L Denali Outdoor Backpack $17.69 & More - Walmart

Been these prices for months. There's a previous thread about the 40L, supposedly very thin material and weak stitching, but OK if you are just bringing light stuff like a jacket or sleeping bag. One poster said his came apart after 1 trip. YMMV

Thank you, I added it to the OP and gave you credit.

I have the 30 Liter model. I would say it's good for someone wanting to get into hiking to see if they like it and also someone who won't overstuff the pack. For the price it's good, but it won't last very long if you're doing more serious hikes.

I also have the 30L (paid $16). It's really nice for a bag under $30.

The weight is great but if it's regular nylon the lack of weight means no durability

In before anyone has said this pack sucks compared to their Osprey pack.

This isn't a high end pack, it won't survive the AT or the matterhorn. But for people heading out on day hikes with the kids or people who just want to carry their non-work/school stuff? A great value. It will hold water bottles, snacks, first aid kit, jackets, etc. no problem.

I like them for little fairs and festivals. It holds the same kind of stuff for my family. I had the 40L for a while and it's great to haul snacks, soccer balls, frisbees, pump, hat, etc. to the park but it's pretty big. The smaller is much more manageable, but won't fit the gear.

The lightweight pack is not "ultralight" but it is significantly lighter than my Swiss gear or 5.11 packs, heck I'm pretty sure it's lighter than my platypus even though it's bigger.

There are two things that stand out about the lightweight pack that are not typical: 1) The frame which holds the pack off your back and keeps you cooler as well as keeps its shape a bit. 2) the zip open front and the storage pockets. This will zip open and nearly lay flat and has zippered mesh pockets all along the front flap and the back. This means you can put all your little stuff nicely organized without need for any additional ditty bags or organizers.

Does it come with a bladder?

Quote from FairNest1755 : Does it come with a bladder?

No. Hydration "compatible". Usually if it included the bladder it would just call it a hydration pack.

I assumed there wasn't one but thought it was a great deal if it had one. Thank you.
