Review for
Matador Freerain24 Backpack
Went backpacking recently and after getting to a basecamp, I needed a daypack to carry my stuff on day hikes and summit attempts of nearby 14ers. The FreeRain24 fit the bill. At just 5 oz and about the size of an apple when packed down, it was easy to attach to the outside of my big pack and didn't add much weight to the trip.
Pulled it out the second day for a summit attempt that would take us about 8 hours. Packed all my layers, food and water and it handled it all. Met with some mist and ice pellets for a little while and everything stayed bone dry. I don't really like water bladders so the 2 side pockets were perfect for holding my 2, 1 litre bottles.
Pack was comfortable and allowed for strap adjustments to keep the load balanced in the right spot. Nice pack!
