I figured it was time for me to start looking for a new daypack/backpack for hiking and smaller camping trips. I really like the look of the smaller EOD bags neat very clean looking however i feel they may be a little small from what i have seen in previous pictures and posts. I have been looking at the King Arms brand packs and they look pretty nice (the EOD backpacks at least) and was wondering if anyone has expierence with these two and maybe some pictures to share? :D we all love those pictures. How much gear can you fit into the backpack vs the daypack? I consider myself a light to lighter traveler however dont want to be limited on the amount of gear i can carry due to my size of pack. Thanks in advance :thumbup:
 
I can really reccoment a Mountainsmith Approach pack. It's supposedly a day pack but I can cram enough in it for a 3 day trip or so.:thumbup:
 
I bought a Osprey Stratos 40 this year and love it. It's the perfect combo daypack/backpack. I've used it for dayhikes and cinched things up so it's more compact and it works great. I've also used it for a 2 day backpacking trip. The smaller size keeps you from overloading it, which I feel is a plus.
Its every lightwieght and has a relieved mesh area over where your spine is so air can ventilate through.
