🏞️ Exploring the Wilderness with Outdoor Products Ripcord Hydration Pack Review

Overall great product with 1 complaint. My only complaint after using this hydration pack for two weeks is that the straps that attach to the chest and waist are either very, very short. They barely fit me and I weigh 175 pounds (in good shape) with a 32 inch waist. I don't see them fitting someone with a bigger waist or bust than me, but I have boobs that are bigger than my waist. Keeps water cool, easy to use, fill, empty, etc. With this backpack, my water NEVER had a weird or strange taste…

Went for a 10 mile walk in the High Sierras with it. I was looking for a moisture pack that wasn't too thick. Enough for a hydration bladder, an extra water bottle, snacks and an extra layer. That's great. I am 5ft 6" and my husband is 6ft 4". We both fight for this pack and we both love its size. The straps are comfortable and so far the stitching/construction quality seems good. My only concern was that I specifically wanted a backpack with two side mesh pockets for sports drinks or bike…

So I bought this backpack just before I went on a 5 week hike in Europe. Has multiple pockets and can be easily expanded to fit larger items in the main pocket. The water pouch holds a pretty decent amount of water and is able to keep the water pretty cool for a long time. Eventually the bottom of the water bag started leaking but that was only because the hose was loose, easy to fix. The only downside is that the water tastes like rubber hose at times, but I think that could be an issue with…

This backpack has space for many small and even some medium sized items. I quickly ran to the grocery store and was able to put a couple of products inside, leaving free space. I don't like the position of the bubble. I have an old camelbak where the bladder is visible from the outside. It is easier to fill and empty for drying than this one. I bought this one because my camelbak didn't have storage space (very old model). Rip cord is comfortable. Bladder leakage is not as easy as it is with my

First of all I got this bag because I didn't like the look of my dad's pannier (I know a bag is a bag, at least it does my job) but mostly I have got this one because it went so well with my Bacardi cycling jersey! I was thrilled when I received it. Pros: • Lightweight and compact • Sits comfortably on my back • Great for carrying my Nintendo Switch, essentials and snacks • Hydration bladder just the right size for me • I love that this bag doesn't move! Some pockets also move with buckles but…

I needed a compact hydration pack for adventure racing where I need enough space to stash my essential gear, groceries and gear - but anyway keep things light and convenient. A colleague has Camelbak Mule and when I saw it I realized it's just what I need. Until I saw the price tag. My first impressions of Ripcord are very positive. It has plenty of storage space, one large pocket that fits the full length of the pack and two smaller pockets on the top and bottom big enough for things like a…
