• Didn't really get on with my Trailblazer 18. Pockets are all a bit weird shapes and lack of bottle pockets was annoying, plus the UL sternum strap is hard to do up.

    Wanted something a little bigger too so took a punt on a aliexpress Aonijie 30l pack. It's a rip off of a ultimate direction fastpack but supposedly with some improvements. Quite surprised with it tbh and enjoying it. My other half using it near Ullswater on saturday while i carried the baby...

  • I went with the Aonijie in the end - turned up today and looks like a good piece of kit. No plans at the moment so not sure when it will get its first real outing though
