About this product

The Garron is the pack we suggest for a two-hour loop round Maiden Castle or a Year 7 field trip. A wide zip opens two thirds of the way down the sides, so you can reach the bottom without unpacking, and a padded sleeve inside holds a tablet or map case.

There is no frame, only a foam back pad and a webbing waist strap. That keeps the weight to 480g and the price down. It is still a Hale pack, so the lifetime repair promise covers it.

  • Zip opens two thirds of the way down both sides
  • Padded inside sleeve fits a tablet or map case
  • Stretch side pockets take 750ml bottles
  • Removable webbing waist strap
  • Reflective strip above the front pocket

    Good for school trips

    Bought two for my kids for a geography trip to Lulworth. Sturdy, and the zip is easy for small hands. I'd like a padded waist belt, but at this price I'm not complaining.
