There’s a common joke in the cycling community that the perfect number of bikes to own is the current number you have, plus one. It can sometimes be the same with backpacks, as different trips and activities might need you to carry just that little bit more or less and so one daypack becomes three or four. The Flex Hike is a light, tough and comfy daypack from Sierra Designs with a massive 10 litres of adjustable volume thanks to the expanding gusset, so whether you’re packing for a fast and light afternoon on the trails or carrying a few extra bits of gear you can do it all. With 7 outside pockets, including two on the padded hip belt, there’s plenty of spaces to stash and organise your gear

Maybe it’s no wonder that the state of California has been the cradle for so many great American outdoor brands. Sandwiched between the Pacific Ocean and the Sierra Nevada mountains, and encompassing no less than nine US National Parks, the Golden State has long been a mecca for outdoor adventurers of every ilk. Sierra Designs is a case in point. California was the natural place for the brand’s co-founders, a pair of young outdoor aficionados named George Marks and Bob Swanson, to set up shop.
They first met in late 1963 at while working at The Ski Hut in Berkeley, CA. Two years later, Sierra Designs was born. Today, the brand continues to create outdoor equipment and apparel that is functional, beautiful, and most importantly, attainable, enabling outdoor lovers throughout the USA and beyond to hit the trail and fill their souls with a sense of wanderlust.
I have really enjoyed this pack for longer day hikes
