I ordered the a yellow bag that depicts how to tie various knots. I received a yellow bag with a fuzzy man on it. I know I ordered the right bag because my order screen shows the correct bag. Now the item on the website is a blue bag. You might get something completely different. Anyhow I tried to return it and they wanted to charge $6.95 return shipping on an item they misrepresented in the first place. The item cost was $5.91. It will cost $6.95 to return a $5.91 bag. This is my second experience ordering from Backcountry. The first order was for two Orange/Brown tents. I received two Grey/Green tents with no explanation. Be aware that color or photo representation is not valued by this supplier. You get what they send you.

The gold standard for chalk bags

I have several rock climbing chalk bags, for myself and my wife. Each of them is carried in one of these Outdoor Research theme stuff sacks, to keep chalk dust from permeating everything else in my kit backpack. There's simply nothing better on the face of the Earth for this niche application, IMO.

Solid Product

Did it's job well in sub zero conditions. No frills, solid product.

Great little bag for "stuff"

If you like to organize your stuff when traveling, this is a good item to have. Good size.
