Matador Freefly Backpack
Best ultralight daypack for adventurers traveling in wet, rugged conditions.
This is the ultimate insurance policy for unpredictable travel, packing down to nothing while shrugging off torrential downpours. You sacrifice the structure and padding of a traditional daypack, but you gain a bombproof, ultralight companion that disappears into your luggage until you actually need it.
