Review on Optimized CamelBak Repack LR 4 Hydration Pack with 50 oz Capacity by Ernest Duckett

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality, poor fit

Sorry camelbak you had to go back. The quality of the outer packaging is excellent. I intended to fasten it, but like many other reviews, the waist belt didn't live up to the advertised 46-inch specs. I measured mine and it was under 39 inches. It is suitable for wearing over a t-shirt, but not for wearing over a sweatshirt or coat. I'm 36 inches tall and customizing this backpack was not acceptable for me as it was supposed to be 46 inches. After contacting Camelbak they confirmed the problem with the installation and suggested I send it in for a replacement. I wasn't sure if the new pack would be any different after reading all the other reviews. But if that hip belt suits you, the Repack is a great combination of bags and will come in handy. I wish it fits better.

Pros
  • 75% cotton 15% nylon 10% wool
Cons
  • thin
