Backpacks ,

I need a 70 L

I have my reasons for 70 L

I just one that's not too expensive maybe 150 dollars ?

or less haha please less .

Most of you here have better idea than be because I basically want to know what bag you have and you think is good or great , honestly any ideas is great help because I am dizzy from all the search

At the moment I'm using a Berghaus backpack...very strong,comfortable and excellent value..they are not the cheapest but not the most expensive either.I've been using it for a few years and everything is still working well.

It is a Freeflow 30 though......I don't use the giant packs.

thank you very much good sir , i will look into it :)

In that price range I'd buy used. Brands available will depend on where you live (duh). Look for a top (Gregory, Arc'teryx, Osprey, etc.) not a second tier brand (REI, MEC, EMS, Coleman, Jan Sport, etc.).

I've got a couple of packs in that size range (Gregory, North Face, Mountainsmith). Each cost significantly more than US$150 when new.

Don't forget to check for a functional compression strap system which allows making the pack much smaller when not full.

Good luck.

Can I ask what are your reasons for needing a 70l pack? It will help me answer your question better.

Hi how are you ?

Well Ideally the bag will be half full but I have 5 brothers and sisters and I plant to bring back stuff ,

not a lot but few bits and pieces and id like to be prepared just in case ,

id like to use the bag again in the future for trekking aswell :)

If that is the only reason for a 70L bag, then buy a smaller bag and get a cheap bag wherever you are going and by your gifts at the very end, that's what I do for my 4 brothers and sisters...

I always go for Deuter, high quality, nice styles, but they are expensive and hard to get outside Germany/Europe...
