Good stuff (sack)! Review by JerryW

I really like this unique bag. The material and stitching are a bit delicate so you do have to look after it, but provided you do it should last OK.. recommended!
I was not sure if it would be comfortable without any adjustments whatsoever (eg sternum strap) but in practice it has been just fine. (Posted on 3/24/12)

Awesome! Review by Mud

Took this little thing out for a hike last week, I absolutely love it! So light it's ridiculous. Loaded it up with an Arc'teryx Theta AR, trail mix, beef jerky, donuts, Fleece, 32 oz water bottle, small first aid kit, and leather gloves. Even with it stuffed, the pack still felt super comfortable, I feel it has to do a lot with the width of the shoulder straps.

My only complaint would have to be with the material, it scuffs easy. But if you take care of it, I think this would last a long time.

Thanks for making awesome gear Gossamer, I'll be returning for more in the future! (Posted on 1/31/12)

Bought three last spring and it is always my first go to pack. From over nights and airplane carry ons.... Now they have them in black! I guess I need one more! The cargo to weight ratio is the best you'll find (Posted on 1/19/12)

This pack is perfectly simple. As others mentioned, I use it as a stuff sack for my sleeping bag when I hike. I then have a daypack to take the essentials when I wander. I couldn't be happier withnthis pack! (Posted on 1/6/12)

If you've ever needed a basket on your road bike, stuff this little beauty into your tool bag under your seat. (Posted on 9/13/11)

I've been using the Riksak for over a month and love it. I use it as a stuff sack for my sleeping bag when I hike so I always have a great little daypack with me when I venture out. I don't hike without it anymore! (Posted on 6/10/11)

A functional day pack for little more weight than a stuff sack. Used it for day hiking from a base camp with water, lunch, jacket, etc. Very light and straps are comfortable. (Posted on 6/7/11)

Contents of pack: ultralight primaloft pullover, light gore-tex shell, ball cap, beenie, headlamp, tiny roll duct tape, 1.5 liter bottle of water, 2 granola bars. No problem, comfortable fit, very very light. Seems designed and well stitched, but time will tell. Sil-nylon is what it is, so I can't complain - but imagine how much cooler it would be if it was a more durable material. Something still light, perhaps dyneema (but then you're talking a lot more than $30). My only real complaint is the lack of a small internal pocket, perhaps up near the closure. You know, something for keys or phone. But hey, I'm very happy with the pack. Great pack for the weight and the price. Beautiful in its simplicity. (Posted on 6/3/11)
