Wolf Jaw 40L

I like to hike and day-trip, so was looking for a medium-sized backpack that can hold enough stuff without looking too bulky—and the Eureka Wolf Jaw definitely fulfills my requirements. All the essential features are here: hydration sleeve, S-curve dual-density shoulder straps, soft-touch attic pocket, and padded hip belts. With a computer compartment, the Wolf Jaw is great for school as well. The high-capacity bag is incredibly sturdy and stays comfy on my shoulders after being loaded up. $100; eurekatent.com.
