Durston Kakwa40 Pack Unboxing And First Impressions 071222

I just got my fourth backpacking pack and my first backpack in about 16 years. I thought I would do a quick unboxing and first impressions video. There are so many backpacks on the market. I got the Durston Gear Kakwa40 pack because I was wanting to lighten my base weight and my lightest backpack was about 54 Oz. I had been looking for a while and was about to give up when Durston Gear released The Kakwa40. It ticked all the boxes for what I was looking for. If you have any questions about the pack, you can find out more about it at durstongear.com/product/kakwa... or leave a question in the comments and I will try and respond as quick as possible.

Just received mine this week. The initial impressions of the Kakwa 40 back are favorable. I've done a fully loaded short trek thus far and the packed carried my ultralight gear comfortably. Longer trips are in the planning stay. Happy trails!

Thanks for posting. Looks like there’s no lumbar pad for your lower back.
