Thoughts on the Kakwa
I feel like this bag ticks so many boxes but I’m going to hold onto my current backpack for now.
What I love:
- the U shaped frame
- I LOVE the shoulder strap pockets for water bottles and storage
- back comfort (from reviews)
- the hidden side pocket
- the durability
- the hip belt pockets
- the price
What I’m not crazy about:
- front pocket aesthetics & I prefer stretch mesh functionality also
- side pocket depth (I know the compression straps are good for poles, but I just love tall pockets).
- lack of rubbish pocket underneath (not a deal breaker)
- more colour options, even if it’s just the cordage
What do you guys think? I think it’s awesome but will wait and see.
P.S: I tried X-Dome 2 sold this weekend. Loved the tent
