Review on πŸŽ’ Olive Drab Condor Venture Pack by Mandy Rodriguez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A great, durable, multi-purpose backpack at a surprisingly affordable price.

I had just graduated from college and my old backpack was finally dead, so I set out in search of a new bag that would take me to infinity and beyond. In particular, I wanted a bag that could be used for hiking and camping (so it needed to have a bottom strap to distribute the weight), but I also wanted a bag with a laptop compartment so I could use it as carry-on when traveling. Other than that, I just wanted a bag that looks cool and can take a beating. The Condor Venture backpack does it all. It's well thought out and has great features like an easy access laptop compartment, room for a water bladder, a padded pocket for valuables and lots of little pockets that I can't keep track of. Above all, this bag seems to be one of a kind - in hours of online research I haven't found another bag with a bottom strap AND a laptop compartment. Due to the laptop compartment, the use of this bag is not only limited to hiking, but also helps as hand luggage when travelling. I've used it on some pretty tough hikes and it's held up well and is now my overnight or short trip bag (its ability to fully open - "clamshell" style - is fantastic). I didn't give a star because the baby carrier can dangle and it's a little annoying (although there are straps that can be tightened to fix the problem) and because there's no dedicated place for an external water bottle (I just strap mine). to the bag). Carabiner attached to MOLLE loops on side). One of the best factors about this bag is the price - it's hailed as better than bags that cost twice as much, and its versatility makes it a great choice no matter how you plan to use it. Oh and it looks cool.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Out of fashion
