Review on Osprey Skarab 30 Men's Hiking Hydration Backpack by Osprey Packs by John Larsen

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great bag but no rain cover included.

Delivery took 3 days instead of 2 days for a top quality product. The product itself is definitely great, but there is NO rain cover. I was using my Raptor 14 bike as a hiking backpack and needed a little more room. This packs far more than you will ever need on a day hike. The new chest strap buckle takes some getting used to. The red bag's hue is also a little darker than we'd like, but that's okay, it's still the most eye-catching. I like the daisy chain attachment points. I wish there were straps at the bottom to attach a camp chair if I've ever used one for longer trips. Will Osprey ever include MOLLE webbing?

Pros
  • Constant test results
Cons
  • Some errors
