65 Litre Walking Hiking Camping Rucksack - Blue - Waterproof.

This rucksack has two side mesh pockets, a top cap section with a zipper pocket and two rigid poles for an inner back system. The base section has an internal draw cord opening and an exit hole for a hydration pack bladder hose. There are also webbing loops for accessory attachments such as walking poles.
Surely if your going all that way and spending ££££ on flights etc you would drop more than£12.99 on a decent sack?
In all 99% likelihood this will not be suitable for you, your back on any long carry, and with any kind of weight in it. Plus the aggro / issues and additional expense if (when?) it breaks!>?
A good, adjustable sack with some kind of reinforcement is a must if your taking it anywhere IMHO - and a cheap sack is false economy to the extreme!
Do yourself a favor and get something better for what is likely one of those 'trips of a lifetime'. A good sack will last for years!
I have voted hot still because for what it is its a good price, and for a weekend back i'd carry to and from the car and / or take away on work or something it would likely be fine... but for any kind of long carry or heavy carry - stay clear!
(BTW I am not a snob with these things but speak from my experience (ex forces, former avid hiker) - though I dont get to do much these days due to time and health (sounding older than I am), my experience has taught me a good bag is a critical piece of kit most often overlooked - it doesnt have to be expensive but £12.99? Plus you should really go and try a few on for fit and get the most comfortable)

I probably wouldn't expect it to last a lifetime or too heavy loads but looks good for the price. May even get as a back up! Heat!

These bags are pretty decent quality I own the 100 ltr version.
Shouldn't be any problem taking this on any trip.
