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.

    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.

    Best Little Bag

    Overall the bag is very durable, more spacious than it looks, and comfortable to carry around. The straps are put onto the bag on such a way that they stay firmly on your shoulders. One will not slip off when leaning or moving around.

    So far I have been very happy with this little bag. I am a pretty short person (5ft) so I didn’t need the biggest bag to carry around. I, however, do need it to fit several things that the average person doesn’t carry around on a daily basis. Everyday I carry around an 8x8 sketchbook, a tin of colored pencils, a notebook, sunglasses (in a cushioned flat container) and a 17 oz water bottle. There is still plenty of space whenever I need to add something in. A recent trip to the zoo had me putting a small fujifilm camera into it (Lens removed and stored in the bag as well), a stick sunscreen, and a collasible uv umbrella.
    My only negative for this bag would be due to how much I was sweating on said zoo trip (90F with some humidity) some of the finish rubbed on to my shirt. I was going to need to wash my shirt anyways so I am not too concerned about it. This might just be an issue due to how new the bag is, and once I use it more the finish will be less transferable.

    Picture includes my iPad Air to show that one can fit in the bag.

    Perfect for my tiny wife

    Surprisingly roomy inside.. she takes it to work everyday.. it’s big enough to put an extra pair of scrubs in.. and a few other work essentials. She loves the style and she will also wear it on her motorcycle commute to work once summer starts. Frost River continues to amaze us with their high quality American made products at such a reasonable price compared to their competitor
