Product Description
Featured in Rick's TV series, the light-duty Civita (chee-VEE-tah: Italian for "little city") Day Pack won't weigh you down. Plenty of room for everything you need for a day of sightseeing, yet rolls up into nearly nothing when you need to pack it. Stuff a jacket inside, and it's a soft travel pillow. Rick's personal day pack in Europe!

Pros:
It was super light weigh and good for a day pack.
Cons:
It fell apart on the first trip. All the ties pulled out and the handle was on the way. I had to throw it away when I got home.

Perfect day pack
Pros:
I love this bag. It has been my only day pack for several years. I can roll it up to fit into my big zippered "purse bag" on the plane. The Civita backpack becomes my purse for daily use when I travel, holding everything I need for the day. I bought a new one for travel and use my old one for use at home walking about my small town.
Cons:
None! I love this bag.

Pros:
It is the lightest, most unstructured backpack I have ever seen. It is replacing one I like which has some form, but has no pockets. I assume from some of the other reviews that it will work, but the pictured one must have loads of clothes in it.
Cons:
This was a surprise. No structure. I wanted it for my camera. Hope it works out without having to wrap material around the equipment.

Pros:
The color maybe.
Cons:
It is nothing like the picture, which makes it look like a Jansport type pack. It's totally floppy, small, moleskin type material and I doubt it will work efficiently at all on my trip, but I'm going to try. I got this on sale and had I known what it was like would not have paid that price.

Pros:
The size was perfect for my needs and very lightweight. There was enough room for everything I need to carry without making the pack too cumbersome
Cons:
I didn't like the fact that the straps were too short for a big guy. I would be fine for an average size person but I had to add about 11 inches of webbing straps to the existing ones so that it would fit across my broad back and shoulders and not cut under the arms since I didn't want to carry it as a shoulder bag. Other than that, no problems.
