Cascade Backpack - Compact

Took this with me for wondering around the Disney parks in Orlando. I found it to be comfortable and could hold a load of snacks, water, a light jacket and miscellaneous electronics with ease. Best of all it was really easy to find everything inside because the opening is quite generous allowing for easy access to the inside. 2 things I would change first is the exterior side pockets which are very restrictive, they should have more room perhaps be elastic to make them easier to use, I couldn’t put my 18oz bottle in those pockets until the bag was emptied. Second I would add load levelers, this may be a small backpack but I am a small woman and would greatly appreciate more adjustable when carrying a heavier load.

I didn’t know whether to buy the standard or compact backpack but decided on the compact because I’m only 5 ft tall 😊. It may hold a little less, but I think for my height it will be perfect

Cascade Backpack in compact is just too cute and perfect. I got the Rose color is a beautiful bright red I am in love with it. Gave it 4 stars because the straps are too stiff and me being petite [5ft] when i put both straps on my shoulder I can feel the stiffness of both. When I strap them together infront of my chest is feels like is chocking me. I just wont use the front part .. is beautiful though. Perfrct size and not so bulky.
