Who says you need different packs for work and play? Split the difference: the Quasar 28 Daypack can handle whatever you need it to do. Securing a laptop on your daily commute? Check. Comfortable carrying for dawn-to-dusk day hikes? Check. Clamshell opening and tons of pockets for easy packing for long weekends? Check and check. A removable waistbelt comes in handy when you want to carry a whole watermelon to the summit, but comes off for a more streamlined look on your way to the office. Side pockets hold water bottles or an umbrella, while front bungees let you stuff in a rain jacket or extra sweater. Is there anything this pack can't do?
