Hi all, I am currently looking into buying a backpack and would really like some help. I’ve done some research on the issue and have opted to buy a Karrimor Munro 65 Rucksack. I have tried it on and it feels great. I would just like to know if anyone has the backpack or a backpack with the same brand and can me some feedback, is the backpack good quality?
Much appreciated

I have an old Karrimor cougar womans bag. It’s served me well and the back system has always been very comfortable. Straps and zips are sturdy. Never had a problem with mine.

If it’s what you need, it fits you well and is comfortable then that’s the most important thing.

Karrimor as a brand in general has reduced in quality over the past 6 years when they were taken over by a sports store but some of their products still offer a lifetime guarantee so if anything goes wrong with it, they’ll sort it out for you which is a bonus. I have an old pre-takeover Karrimor Global which is still awesome and still as good as new.
