For the excursions and adventures that don't require a full daypack The North Face Mountain Lumbar Pack is a great lightweight option. This versatile lumbar pack includes a comfortable and stowable shoulder strap to help stabilize your load and for use as a shoulder bag. The North Face uses high quality 600-denier polyester fabric for durable construction and loads this bag with features including dual water bottle pockets with cinch top closures and a reverse opening main compartment for easy access while strapped to your waist. Handy cinch straps help to stabilize heavier loads and reduce pack size when not fully loaded. The front compartment includes handy slip-in pockets for small items like sunscreen or glasses. You can hit the trail or city tour without the burden of a backpack when you've got The North Face Mountain Lumbar Pack on your packing list.

Excellent Quality but too big for me

The lumbar waist pack is well made and can handle more than enough gear for a full days hike. The pack can even handle two 32 ounce bottles. Those are the positives, however, being a Petite 5'2 female weighing approximately 125 pounds the problem that I had with the pack is that it has a tubular design and extends past my waist when the belt is snapped together. Secondly the belt doesn't conform -fit- my body size. This waist pack will be returned shortly and I'm going to purchase the Mountainsmith Tour Lumbar Pack -51899- since all of the reviews are positive.
Pros: Build quality, Lasts forever, Performance, Ease of use, Cons: Bad design
