Review of The 2022 Patagonia Refugio Daypack which is now available in a 26L and 30L size.

In this video we will be comparing 8 popular backpack brands that can be round in big box stores around the world. Smaller and newer companies have come out with exciting backpack offerings, but these brands are still very well known and offer bags that I regularly see around campus, the office, and pretty much anywhere that I travel. With so many options from such big brands it can be overwhelming to decide which brand might be best for you so hopefully this video can provide some direction if you are looking for your next bag.
