hi! The camel bag needs to be filled with water; otherwise, we can't understand how much space it takes up when it's full! If you put it in empty, of course, you'll have more space left!
I know I am late to the party here but really nice video! I am thinking about buying this backpack and this video brought me a step closer to it. One quick advise: It would be helpful if you could share your size and weight in backpack videos. Not just because of the fitting of the backpack itself, but also because clothes of big people need more space than those of smaller people
@@nielsc-v5t Hi Neil, thanks for your message sorry I haven’t tried the 58 if we get one in I will make a comparison video but at the moment we don’t plan to have a 58 as the 68 seems a good size for this type of trekking pack. It’s a great pack with good features. Russ
IMHO way to much gear for a long weekend which correlates to a unnecessarily heavy pack, extra stress on feet and joints, fatigue and a dip in enjoyment! but apart from that another great video, keep up the good work 👍
Hi, Thanks for watching! I am just trying to give an impression of the type of equipment you could carry and also show the space in the bag. More videos coming soon..... hopefully.

Hi,
Thanks for your message, I quite understand and next time I will try to add this into the video.
Happy adventures!

Hi, Thanks for watching, I am 5ft 10" and 12 stone, hope that helps. Russ
Thanks for a great video! I am trying to decide if I should get the Kestrel 58 or the 68. Have you tried the 58, for comparison?

Hi, do you have an idea how heavy the backpack is now?
Hi,
Rookie mistake I should have weighed it at the end of the video, I will do this again as soon as I can and let you know.
