 "love it, but pattern weird" 2009-05-09
By Deleted
I love the layout of the backpack, and the fact that it combines pink and black. The only thing I was disappoined with was the fact it has dogs and trucks for designs, from the picture it just looks like random squiggly designs.. which I didnt notice until I got it in person. Dogs and trucks.. kinda random for designs for a girly backpack, if you ask me.

 "The perfect grad pack" 2008-11-19
By Mandolin (Cincinnati, OH)
I just started grad school. This is the perfect pack for a lap-top-toting, book-reading, class-teaching, lunch-packing, slightly-fashion-minded grad student. The waist strap was a must for me... believe me I've been comparing such packs for a couple months.

 "Worst Customer Service Ever" 2010-09-09
By C-Mor
First when purchasing, the product was listed as "In Stock" and I received an e mail saying my card had been charged. After a week of no notification I e mailed "online fitness" to find out the status of the order. I was told the product was out of stock & it would be at least 30 days until the received a new order. This is un-professional as it gets. Not once was I ever e mailed or contacted to be informed of the product is out of stock & it would be 30 days until the get a new shipment. This is pretty basic customer service when it comes to online ordering. Keep your product stock updated for online, it's really not that hard. I seriously question wether the company would have ever informed me of this if I did not contact them first.



HIGHLY UNPROFESSIONAL & UNORGANIZED!! *WOULD NOT RECOMMEND ORDERING FROM THIS WEBSITE*

 "Great for smaller DSLRs" 2010-05-27
By M. Roberts (Pittsburgh, PA)
This backpack has a great layout and a lot of functionality except that the camera compartment is backwards. You open the back of the bag and the top of your gear sits on your back. This makes the flash portion of the camera hit you right in the spine. This wasn't much of an issue with a Nikon D5000 but when I put my D300s in there it wasn't working. You'll never get a pro body or gripped prosumer body in this bag. I can't really knock it for that though as I don't think it was designed for pro gear. The build quality and layout are great just keep in mind that it is very narrow. I would probably find something else if you have a D90 or bigger sized body.

This photo backpack is great. I purchased this backpack in the bomber pattern and color. I love it! There are many many photo backpacks out there like Apecase, or Lowepro, etc. I went with Dakine though because I have had other Dakine backpacks for many years now, and still own them, because they are the most durable backpack I have ever used. So I knew I could rely on their dependable quality.



I have a Canon Digital Rebel XTI that I use, and I take it everywhere in this backpack. Whether it be out hiking in the woods all day, walking around Pittsburgh taking photos for 10 hours, I have basically used this backpack in every possible situation, and it has never let me down. I have three lenses, my dslr, a small canon point and shoot, all my filters and accessories, such as extra batteries and many many other supplies, and even have either my full size tripod strapped onto it, or my compact Slik tripod stuffed inside. I always have this much gear in this bag, and it always stays comfortable. The padded straps are great, and so is the padding on the back of the bag, so your back does not get sore. I feel great after hiking for literally 10 hours on end.



This bag has a rain cover that covers everything, EXCEPT for the part that unzips, which is the part that would be facing your back. It is figured that that part will not get wet since it is protected by your back, and also, this is great so if it is one of those days it rains and stops about every half hour or so, you can leave your rain cover on, while still havign full access to your camera, without constantly adding the cover, then removing it, doing one giant cycle of frustration. Now as I did say earlier, the main zipper for the camera block is on the backside of the backpack, which is the side facing your back, as if you were wearing it. No one should have a problem wit hthis whatsoever, since you literally should be setting your bag down anyway to remove your camera, or replace a lens, etc.



I throw my compact tripod right inside, because it is only 14" in height. If I have my full size tripod, I simply strap it on vertically on the back and it works great. One thing I really do love about it is the fact that it has a zipper compartment on the side, that unzips, and a drink holder folds out. This is truly a must have for looooong hourly hikes. I constantly have a bottle filled with water. It will hold a bottle of Gatorade or Allsport. That's how generous the size is (small gatorade of course). This way you're not throwin a wet, condensating bottle inside your bag with all your electronics and other valuable delicate items.



This bag simply works great. At all times it holds my DSLR, 3 lenses, a point and shoot camera, a mini tripod, water, both battery chargers for my DSLR and my point and shoot, 2 extra batteries for my DSLR and one for my point and shoot, a computer transfer cable, extra memory card for my DSLR, lens cloth, rocket blower for dust, the rain cover (which comes with it), my four lens filters, extra lens cap, filter wrenches, and granola bars for that long hike when there is nowhere around to get food. Like I said also, the padded straps are great, the padding also, all make up for a great feeling hike for many hours without the pain of straps digging in or much of anything hurting. This backpack is very durable (as you can tell with all the stuff I haul) and I take it everywhere with me. You most definitely won't be disappointed.



Only one word of advice though. This comes with NO velcro straps, so you are going to want to buy some, so you can securely hold your camera and lenses in place. You will need the hook part, since the loop part of the velcro is already inside the bag. So you only need the hook straps.

 "Fantastic camera bag." 2008-03-19
By Steve Hansu Kim (Orange County, CA)
I bought it because I've owned a regular Dakine bag for years and it has served me very well. They're tough, looks good, very usable, and most importantly, comfortable.



This bag is obviously built for camera gear and it's intelligently designed. Only thing I don't like is that the foam dividers need to be placed high in the padded block to keep the camera nice and snug at the top but it leaves a big gap at the bottom of the dividers and the bottom of the block.



Besides that, it's got great storage spaces all over as well as a huge zippered compartment for wallet, keys, phone, mp3 player, change, pens, notepads, etc. That compartment unzips halfway down the face of the backpack and you can reach all the way down the length of the bag so you can put large magazines in there if you wanted.



Also it has a strap just behind your back on the inside of the bag before the block for your laptop to slide into.



There's two straps on the face of the bag that you can click your tripod into but the top of the bag sags out a little because of the weight. But it's comfortable to strap the tripod on the bag then to lug it around all day. There's also a strap hidden inside a small zipper pocket above the top strap more stuff that you can't actually stuff into the bag. This is quite important because most of the inside of the bag is going to be used for your camera gear.



Also the bag can be opened traditionally or unzipped from the back by taking off the bag and placing the logo side on the ground. Also I noticed that you don't necessary need to unzip it completely to reach for your camera inside which is very handy. There's enough room above the foam block that you can place a small folded up jacket or a sweat shirt inside the bag.



There's also a net that pops out of the small pocket on the left of the bag so you can put wet items such as your cold drink or fruit in it without getting the inside of the bag all wet. There's a small pocket above the net with a soft liner for small delicate items. The pocket on the right is big enough to tightly fit a small novel inside.



The shoulder straps are wide and soft and they're contoured. The sternum strap slides up and down to make it comfy for all. And the waist strap is nice and wide with padding so it doesn't dig in under the love handles. There's extra soft padding for your tailbone. They've thought of everything.



The block can obviously be removed but it's hook and looped in so it doesn't move around. Also the block is padded but the bag is padded as well so there's good bump protection for your expensive camera gear. There's enough room the block for my camera with a telephoto mounted, my flash, and three smallish lens. If I remove my flash and put it in an outside pocket I can store 6 lenses and 1 telephoto on the body or 3 lenses, 1 telephoto on the body and 1 telephoto on the side sharing 3 lens spaces. I wish it came with more small dividers but I can pretty much order more if necessary but I use one whole side for the flash, caps, cables, and cleaning gear.



Overall this is a great bag that doesn't scream "steal me I have expensive camera gear inside".

 "Great Buy" 2010-02-10
By K. Bonnett (huntington beach, ca)
What a great buy and back pack! I have a Dakine back pack and wanted to purchase one for my friend for Christmas. There were many options and styles to choose from. LOTS of pockets and is very useful for school or for outdoor adventures. I even received my purchase sooner than I had expected. I enjoyed my purchasing experience and my friend loves his new back pack =) I highly recommend this product!

 "Excellent Backpack for Snowboarding or General Use" 2010-01-20
By David Chesher (Metro DC)
I bought this pack and purchased the Dakine photo block separately to go with it. I wanted the Dakine Mission Photo pack but I also wanted the laptop sleeve that this pack has and the Mission Photo pack doesn't so that I could have some versatility.



This pack doesn't have the large zipper on the shoulder strap side of the pack to access the contents of the main compartment like the Mission Photo Pack, so inserting the photo block was tight and didn't allow a completely easy access to all the padded photo compartments, but for what I needed it was fine.



I took this backpack up to Mt. Snow Vermont for three days of snowboarding, loading up my camera gear consisting of a Canon Rebel Digital SLR and extra lenses, water bottles, and other items. I found the pack to be very rugged and comfortable to the point that I almost forgot I was wearing it during my runs. The photo block protected the camera gear from damage even after several wipe outs.



The Mission Pack is tough with comfortable shoulder straps, chest strap and a waist strap. I found that the waist strap helps keep the pack in place when you catch an edge and find yourself upended with gravity and momentum deciding your fate. Most of the time I rode with just the shoulder straps and chest strap in place.



The board straps allow you to carry your board on your back. I found this helpful since I was getting over a shoulder injury that tended to ache when carrying anything for very long. I had an extra pair of goggles in the goggle compartment the whole weekend that I completely forgot about, and even after several rough landings they were in perfect shape.



The third day I remembered the water bottle pocket. This is a clever little feature that looks like a pocket until you open it up and it becomes a water bottle carrier complete with a drawstring. It held a 16oz. bottle of water without a problem (didn't try it with anything larger but it seemed like a 20oz bottle would fit), and I never lost a bottle even after a few spills.



Overall I found this to be an excellent choice for snowboarding and would work for a lot of other uses including day-to-day work. I would highly recommend it.

 "excellent product" 2009-12-22

The bag runs "slightly" big to my liking, but I cannot deny the fact that its generous capacity is incredibly useful. I wear this commuting to school, for hiking, and just as a laptop carrier.

Definitely recommending this.

 "Dakine Mission Pack - good all-around choice" 2009-10-01
By David L. Luckhardt (Richmond, CA United States)
For everyday daypack use I picked the Dakine Mission Pack out of the rest of their lineup. It has only one internal zippered pocket, but it is large enough to hold all your small stuff, coins, etc. The four external small gear / camera / goggle pockets are well designed and easy to access and nicely lined with soft fabric.



Two main zippered-access compartments separate your gear nicely, and the laptop sleeve is flexible enough to not limit use on the mountain or bike. Board carry straps may get in the way at times, and might put strain on the outer zippered pocket when in use.
