Seeking a high-quality, durable, waterproof backpack that can easily store when not in use? Mountaintop’s line of backpacks fits the bill, ideal for everything from weekend getaways to outdoor adventures. With a capacity of up to 25 liters, the versatile daypack can hold all the essentials and is prepared for anything travel or camping may throw at you.

The lightweight, breathable fabric is comfortable on the shoulders but still durable enough to prevent water from seeping in. The backpack’s rip-stop nylon fabric is also stain- and tear-resistant, weighing only 0.46 pounds when empty, and available in six bright and bold colors.

Two side mesh pockets provide easy access to water bottles and snacks without having to remove the backpack, and a zippered front pocket offers the same easy access but concealed for privacy and protection. A separate interior pocket holds valuable items such as wallets, car keys and passports, while the rest of the inside space holds larger items like laptops, tablets and jackets.

When you’re not using the backpack, it collapses and folds into a square pouch (7.5 inches by 7.1 inches by 3.5 inches) with a carrying handle, and can be seamlessly stored with other travel equipment between trips.

Although currently unavailable on Amazon.com, the Mountaintop 25-liter backpack can be purchased on eBay for varying prices.
