Gelindo18L-Hiking Hydration Backpack

This is a really cool hydration backpack. It is really well made and has lots of extra storage space. We have only used the bladder once so far, but its worked perfectly. Would recommend.

Good for hiking and biking

After a few months of mountain bike rides the back pack started to break and yes… There was a lot of heavy use and also my self and you should understand that basically youre getting what you paid for so dont spect too much put of this. The good thing is that the bladder does last longer than the back pack it self but with that said the end of the straw tent to get damage pretty good (like all chew up, even not using the teeth) the stitching comes off fairly easy. The buckle on the front of the pack im not sure what is the purpose because once you carry something else beside the full bladder some snacks phone keys and wallets , that buckle feels like its too stuff. I wont buy it again but if you’re looking for lightweight and cheap that might be just a hobby type of sport then try it.

I bought this for my sons birthday since he loves the outdoors and he loves America. He just received it in the mail yesterday and sent me a picture of him wearing it. No flag patch. I am so bummed! That was the selling feature for me. Is there anyway GelindoDirect could send me a patch? I would greatly appreciate it!

A little bigger that some packs. But I like it. There is plenty of room for extra gear.

This hydration pack is the perfect size for a half day of mountain biking. It holds enough water to keep me hydrated over 10 or so miles of intermediate trails. I also have room for a few energy bars, a basic first aid kit and small tool kit. It is light and small enough that I do not notice it on my back. All of the stitching is done correctly and nothing is crooked or fraying. The waist and chest straps adjust enough to fit around my average frame, but the waist strap might not be big enough for someone with a gut. I have a size 32 waist and there is about 5 more inches of adjustment left. The hydration bladder is high quality and leak free. Its easy to fill and the bite valve and cover function well. There are straps inside the bag to hold the bladder up, but I have had no issues without using them. The bladder pocket is insulated and tight enough to keep the bladder upright on its own. If you need more storage space you can add any molle compatible pouches to the outside of the pack.

Everything else was great but you need a 28 in waist to buckle it.

Works great use it when we go kayaking.

Worked great as expected

Very pleased with this purchase! Not a large capacity but just right for water and snacks and a change of light clothing.
