“Pangolins with Packs” is a blog dedicated to extensive and real-world reviews of backpacks. While many sites that include backpack reviews are focused on hiking, photography, or other niches, Pangolins with Packs reviews backpacks of all intents and purposes, whether that be your daily commute through the bustling city, month-long backcountry trek in the remote wilderness, or a quick day-trip with your DSLR. We include the latest and hottest crowdfunded bags, but also backpacks off the rack from local retailers — any backpack we find that piques our interest or we think can be useful. We examine each bag from multiple angles, investigating its functional utility and organizational design, aesthetic design, durability, and ease of use. ​ If there are any backpacks you’d like us to try out and review, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
