With the 25-litre Gateway Cooler Backpack, I experienced the perfect blend of style and functionality. I loved the grey and blue colouring. It was very versatile for adventures and practical for errands. It was also straightforward to put on like a rucksack, making it ideal for on-the-water adventures.

I found this backpack to be optimally sized for day trips. It gave me enough space to stuff it full of dry clothes or offer ample space for food, drinks, and, of course, snacks. With its rugged waterproof shell, it was waterproof and could withstand a heavy pour. (This comes in handy when living in Scotland.) It also has an ISLE-LINK connect system. I thought this was pretty cool. It’s so you can attach it to their compatible SUP. I used the bag on an awful day in stormy conditions. I put all my dry kit in it, and at the end of it, I had dry clothes and my sandwich wasn’t crushed—success!

CONCLUSION
Overall, this bag is perfect for taking food on adventures and walking around daily. It was super simple to adjust to fit better around the shoulders and the back, so it was comfy when carrying. I would definitely say it’s perfect for those warmer days around the corner, for picnic adventures, or days out at the beach. Sun or shine!
