---Great bag for day hiking!I bought this bag for the purpose of day hinking and was not disappointed. It was lightweight and had plenty of room to fit all the essentials you need to carry for a day's walking. I loved the look of it too, styish and classy! My water bladder fitted perfectly and there was a handy clip to hold the bladder tube to the backpack strap, keeping it in place. There is only one negative thing that I can say which was slightly disappointing - the backpack straps rubbed against my neck which meant that I had to wear a collared T-Shirt. It is not a problem if you are wearing a jacket or fleece but will cause problems if you want to wear a vest top or open necked T-shirt...unless of course it is down to my body shape. On the whole I love it!
