## Description

desertcart.com : Venture Pal 40L Lightweight Packable Travel Hiking Backpack Daypack-Black : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Lightweight, surprisingly capable daypack (with one tradeoff) - I’ve been using this Venture Pal 40L as a lightweight hiking and everyday adventure pack, and it’s been a solid performer for the price. It’s very light, packs down easily, and has more usable space than you’d expect. I’ve comfortably carried extra layers, water, snacks, and essentials without it feeling bulky. The shoulder straps are comfortable for short to medium hikes, casual walks, travel days, and general use. Zippers and stitching have held up well so far, and it’s great to keep in a car or suitcase as a “just in case” pack. That said, there is one important thing to know: it does not have a waist belt. Because of that, weight can shift to one side if you’re carrying heavier items (like a full water bottle). For longer hikes or heavier loads, you’ll notice this. For lighter, casual use, it’s totally fine. Overall, this is an excellent value pack for day hikes, travel, and everyday adventures. If you need a super lightweight, packable bag and don’t require a hip belt, this is a great choice.
Review: Great pack - first off I would like to say but this is not a $100 backpack. I've seen some reviews that compared this to higher-priced backpacks. This is a $20 backpack good for a day hike or just to carry your stuff in. It will never match up to $100 Osprey backpack and if you think it will then you're very delusional. It is what it is and that is a packable or foldable if you'd rather backpack. Let's not compare bananas with tennis balls because they're never going to match up. As far as this backpack I really do like it. It consists of two large compartments, one is smaller than the other. It's perfect for someone who may want to just take some stuff to the gym or just go on a little day hike. I can carry a pair of shoes, a rain jacket, occasionally a hoodie, my wallet, my keys,my phone, my tablet 2 bottles of water,and snacks and still have room. It is very roomy and because it is lightweight it is easy to haul around. Now I don't do much travel so I cannot tell you if it fits on an airplane or under a seat but it's great for just taking off for a nice day walk or maybe grab a bunch of stuff and take it to work. It's a great bag for what it is. This is the second one I've owned as the first one just wore out after several years. I would not consider this a good bag for a computer as it is rather thin with no padding but it is great for just carrying what you might need for a Day hike. It would even be good to take to the beach. I would recommend this bag for anyone looking for a simple little backpack to carry around their stuff in. I even have one that I use for emergency stuff. Just remember it is not $100 backpack so don't expect it to be but if you just want something lightweight to carry stuff around this is an awesome little backpack. it may not be right for everyone's needs so look before you buy but I think you will like this pack.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has anyone used this pack as a carry on personal item--that is, to fit under the seat?**
A: I’ve used it on multiple airlines as my personal item. Even with it being completely stuffed full (weeks worth of clothing, shoes, toiletries etc) it still fit with no issues

**Q: Would the bag hold a laptop**
A: There wasn’t a laptop pocket to hold one.  The bag is very lightweight and thin.  I wouldn’t recommend this bag for a laptop.  You would be better off looking at a Samsonite backpack which has a pocket for a laptop and is a thicker material.  Hope this helps answer your question.

**Q: Hi. will it fit a macbook pro 15” and protect it from rainwater walk?**
A: The bag is very thin. Much like a canvas material. I would not put a computer in it.

**Q: where is this made?**
A: Made in China

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This bag has no business being this good
*by K***S on December 31, 2025*

A foldable lightweight backpack has no business being THIS well made THIS cheaply. I bought a second one I am so impressed. I travel a lot and love this because I can throw it easily into luggage and it becomes my bag for shopping, the gym, groceries and a spare bag if I buy too much. Let me tell you I have abused this bag. I have checked it, given it to luggage delivery companies, thrown it around on buses, boats and trains, I have stuffed it with way more mass and weight than is reasonable. I have done this brutal work on it for ober a year and even the top handle which is just a nylon strap which break almost instantly on any other bag shows ZERO sign of wear or abuse. No seams seem in danger of giving up despite totally unreasonable demands on it. I love the dry / wet separation and this thing always seems to be able to pass the “personal item” gauntlet airline companies do these days. Insanely, insanely good bag. I’m shocked.
