    Just to say that if you're looking for camping gear Tesco also have items including rucksacks reduced. Might be worth a look ;)

    Could u even call this a 'rucksack'... it more like a 'duffle-bag'!

    Not to knock the OP's find, but I just bought four of these (for the family holiday) from Amazon for about €39 (including £2 UK postage each and €3.50 for the parcelmotel delivery).

    I reckon the strength/quality will be a lot better (Hi-Tec make half-decent runners and walking boots, I have a pair), and the capacity is 30 litres.

    If you want something really light that will fold away into a pocket, the Argos one would be grand. But stuff 25 litres of anything heavy into it and I'd say the straps/seams won't last long.

    Lidl have some decent backpacks next Monday, but they're twice the price of either the Argos or the Amazon products linked to.

    Regarding that Regatta bag in OP, read some complaints on HUKD about the stitching coming away quite easily ;)

    Bloody hell lads what's with all the negativity? No one is forcing you to buy it. I have one and it's a handy travel bag. I didn't expect too much for the €11 it cost me.

    Cheers OP

    Nice lightweight pack - good value for 8.39

    Handy for carrying as a spare and lightweight loads.

    I bought one before from shaw's the stitching was poor, used some cat gut to repair it, and it lasted 2 solid years of hard service, groceries on the bike etc. I'll be down to argos today to buy another one.
