Anywhere I travel these days, I take my 4Monster Hiking Daypack, the smallest packable backpack that suits my storage needs. For real, this is the only packable backpack you’ll ever need! This product is a gem: extremely lightweight, strong, and durable, it fits in my hands when folded and has a deep interior that holds a lot of personal belongings. It’s the perfect daypack for outdoor and urban explorations.
Full disclosure: I genuinely believe this is an excellent product and have used it extensively during my travels. I’m endorsing it with an affiliate link, so if you purchase it through my blog, I’ll earn a small commission to keep GlobalJuliana.com running. Thank you!

Why I love this packable backpack
- Lightweight and compact: it fits in my hands when folded and weighs only 4 oz, half the weight of an iPhone.
- Capacity: the amount of volume it supports is tremendous. I carried three water bottles, a beach towel, sunblock, a booklet, makeup, a change of clothes, a mobile phone, and various other objects, and there was enough room for everything. It has a central zipper pocket, a front zipper pocket, and two mesh side pockets.
- Side pockets: the two mesh compartments hold water bottles well.
- Water-resistant: I used it in the rain and the backpack kept my belongings dry.
- Sturdy material: made of tear-resistant 30D nylon, it can take a lot of friction from exterior scratches and pointy objects stored inside it, like keys.
- Multipurpose: I use it on my day tours when traveling, including hikes, beach outings, city tours, cycling, and grocery shopping.
- Comfort: the straps don’t have padding, but they’re not uncomfortable and distribute the weight nicely. I never experienced any rubbing on my arms/shoulders.
- Price: it costs less than $30 on Amazon
