Grey Green Eberlestock Switchblade Pack: An Ideal Casual Daypack Backpack for Every Day Review

We received the backpack but the inside was dirty and the tag was torn off and taped inside. This clearly indicates that this product has been used, possibly returned and then resold to us. We were very dissatisfied. Also, one of the zippers on the backpack was broken. We honestly think it wasn't even an Eberlestock backpack! We order direct from Eberlestock and the difference in quality between these two bags is incredible.

The hem is too narrow, so the straps sit tight around the chest. Also for people of normal height. There are no webbing loops to hold on to with all those ridiculous zippers.

My only complaint is that the side compression straps have to be purchased separately and there is no way to attach the straps to the bottom of the pack for…

For a backpacking novice, you may think that $200 for a backpack is very expensive, but after looking at a few options, you realize that all you have to do is "buy once, cry once" to get the right gear.. Eberlestock really redesigned this package. To be honest, I will buy more bags from Eberlestock in the future. This is a great bag for hiking, camping and working out. I still have room in my bag but it is about 3/4 full and carries a load of about 20-30 pounds very comfortably. I love the…
