Description

The Mini Knapsack brings the classic knapsack design down to a size that works for kids, commuters, or anyone who wants a smaller carry without sacrificing durability. Built from 18-oz waxed canvas, with premium leather trim and solid brass hardware, it’s built to take daily use in stride.

Inside you’ll find a hanger-style zippered pocket for smaller essentials, while the drawstring closure and flap top secure gear in the main compartment. The flap is held down by a leather strap and brass buckle, giving you both security and style. Shoulder strap and bottom handles are cotton web, keeping things simple and rugged, just what you want when you’re moving light but expect strength.

    Awesome Mini Knapsack..!!!

    Absolutely awesome as all my Frost River products are....
    My OCD absolutely HATES the placement of the Personalized name tag and State badge in relation to the Frost River badge. Bought this for a gift and I am hesitant to even present this. I threw it in the corner and that's where it still sits until I decide if I want to remove the personalized patches or not.

    perfect little bag

    im a petite woman, and wanted something durable for a daily bag that could go with me wherever, to do whatever, without being a giant pack. (though i do have an isle royale, thats for the bigger trips!). It carries my phone, wallet, keys, a couple water bottles, journal, book, and a few other random things. It holds more than it appears, and doesnt look bulky on your back when emptied since its just canvas without a frame. I like how theres no zipper to fuss with, and the overall quality of the bag is awesome/indestructible as usual with frost river. Its also a great companion on random rural bike rides!

    Nice, compact knap sack

    Bought this for my wife as a hiking day pack. Replaces the cheapo Walmart one she has been using. She really likes it, and the quality is on par with My Nutsac sling bag that I use.

    The boys 10 and 7, live in Maine and I are excited about exploring with their new packs. They are active outdoors and often canoe, camp, and hike with their parents.
