DAKINE Guide Backpack - 3000cu in

Item #DAK1327 | 63 in Stock
5 Star Rating

my favorite backpack

By Ranked #419 - Winter Packs October 24, 2009

i'm 6'3" and the guide pack fits me well, but my shorter friends have used it comfortably too. I bought my first guide pack about 10 years ago, and it was ripped by the airlines after about 5 years. i liked it so much that i sent it back to da kine, and they sent me a new one no questions asked, even though i offered to pay to have it repaired. the 2005 model was even better, and i use it for winter stuff as well as summer cragging because the back-panel zippers are so awesomely convenient. bottom line, da kine is a great company that stands behind their products, and the guide is hands down the most useful backpack i've ever owned. when this one gets worn out i'm definitely buying another.
