If you prefer products made in the U.S.A. I have a hikers dream backpack to tell you about from one of my favorite companies, American Shield. The Granite 25 Backpack has all of the bells and whistles I look for when I buy anything to use while traveling, glamping, camping and even just going for a short weekend hike. What is especially nice about this backpack is that it’s suitable for men and women and that’s why it’s making my list of gifts for any occasion. I’ve mentioned this list before but I wanted to mention it again. You can find my year-long list on my above menu when you need gift ideas.
I needed a backpack for weekend travel, especially for hiking and camping or glamping. Because I generally travel alone with my dog, I don’t need a large weekender bag that takes up a lot of room for most of my travels. There are exceptions to this but usually, a backpack will do the trick. When packed right, a backpack will hold everything one could need and more for a day or two of hiking. With the Granite 25 Backpack, I can pack everything I need for almost a week. Yes, you read that right. I am the queen of packing light. When it comes to quality, this backpack stands out. Its “versatile, spacious, functional and multi-purpose.”
What caught my eye about this backpack when I first heard of it were all of the below perks:
– Canvas
– Textile lining
– Flap + press stud + drawstring opening
– Inner 15″ laptop compartment
– 8 Smaller inner pockets
– 1 Front pocket
– 2 external side pockets
– 1 Back pocket
– 1 Strap pocket
– Adjustable shoulder straps
– Top handle
I’ve yet to find a roomier backpack and I love the wide selection of colors. What would you use your American Shield Backpack for?
I’m on the lookout for something similar. Thanks for the tips!
Seems an amazing product, going to share this with my friend, it surely helps him in hiking. Thanks for sharing
Looks amazing bag pack and I am so impressed by that. This is so perfect!
What a great-looking backpack. All the hiking backpacks I’ve ever owned have been so ugly! I love the striped inside.
Love the design! Chic and functional at the same time. I would wear this even to work! haha
I love such bags. So much to store plus they’re comfortable. Best part is they’re so durable. Love it.
i absolutely love the color of that backpack. It looks so stylish and durable which is good backpack for traveling.
I am a backpack person and I really like your new one. It looks comfortable and versatile, something like I would choose for myself too.
What a great backpack! I love to hike, and this seems perfect for me!
I need to get out and hike more!! This backpack sounds like it’s the perfect bag for that! Thanks for sharing
What a great backpack –

I don’t do any hiking, but this looks like a great backpack! I do need a new one.
Nice bag pack I’m thinking about going camping soon I guess I can look into getting this bag
Now that looks like one amazing backpack! Just perfect for a day out with pockets to keep everything carefully in place.
this backpack looks so cool, perfect for a weekend away.
I love this kind of old fashioned backpacks and I’d love to get one too! Even though I’m not a great hiker. I’ll share this post with my friends. They will love it too! 🙂
This would make a great backpack for traveling. It looks so study too.
I love avkpacks and what sells them to me is the durability and number of pockets. This does look nice.
I do not hike much (though I would love to try) but I could see using this for camping and traveling. The bag seems to be a decent size and I could fit most of my items in it.
This looks like a fabulous backpack. I need one of these when I travel. I might start hiking at some point to see if I like it!
