Another solid gear review. When my current day pack wears out you sold me on this one. Practical. Not overly bulky for a day pack. Versatile. Also my go to solution for fully drying out my water bladder is to stick it upside down through an upright paper towel holder. Drains any leftover water down and keeps the bladder walls open to dry and avoid mildew until that’s done.

[@HikerDudeDad]

Not a bad idea! The thing is that water stays around the opening. So a paper towel at the lowest point when it's hanging does the trick.

[@darcyshikingdiaries]

5 years is a good long time for a day pack. Love that you shared your new pack with us!

[@HikerDudeDad]

That pack was a trooper for some of the stuff I put it through!

[@AnyaDiary]

the colors are very beautiful, nice and big, thank you, my dear friend, for sharing this useful video. Happy work, always successful to you, Amen💝

[@hmongCAM]

Very nice gear. Great review. Thanks for sharing and have a good day.

[@hikingoutdoorfamily]

Looks like a great day pack. I like that feature where the hydration part has the magnet to help it stick and stay in place.

[@HikerDudeDad]

Big fan of that, but I think their best innovation is the disconnect on the hose. Thanks for watching!

[@Jaysus145]

The "shoving stuff" into a bladder to help it dry struggle is real!

[@HikerDudeDad]

I should just throw it in a freezer.... 🤷‍♂️

[@debbiehills2928]

❤spoiler alert! 🎉😊nice bag! Getting closer to 1000.🎉

[@HikerDudeDad]

Slow and steady wins the race! Thanks for watching.

Trying to compare the Citro and Zulu for the 30L version . Thanks for the vid though haha

[@stonemedicine]

Nice review. Helpful. Thank you. 🙏🏼

[@michaellupu2080]

Thank you for the review, I've been checking out their Citro 30 and was curious if I should go for the older or newer model. Assuming the design changes are similar between the 30L and 24/25L models, this video was very helpful. Now with some months of experience, what's your opinion of the bag? Is it As good as the older version?

[@HikerDudeDad]

Honestly, if you can find the older version, I'd get that. On the new one, the zippers stick and other things are just... Off. Like they tried subtle changes, but they didn't need to? I should make a "one year later" video....

[@michaellupu2080]

@@HikerDudeDad thank you for replying! A video like this would be appreciated! Have a great day!

[@AmitKumar-in7vo]

How does this compare to Gregory Miko 25? Do the hit pockets fit typical smartphones?

[@HikerDudeDad]

@@AmitKumar-in7vo I've never seen a Miko. The hip pockets on the Citro are probably fine for an iPhone, but snug for my S23 Ultra.

[@ZygeivisNEWS]

Dose it fit regular smartphone on hip belt pockets? I trayed on Citro 30 and it fitted not so well... And I like much grey color inside on older version what gives more clarity, visibility.

[@HikerDudeDad]

@@ZygeivisNEWS it's a little tight for my S23 Ultra. I keep it in my pocket.

[@detailingandstuff]

Do these packs fit Nalgene bottles in the sidepockets? Not a big bladder guy so a bit of a make or break for me.

[@HikerDudeDad]

I have fit a 32ox Hydroflask in the mesh pockets.

[@ubergaard]

Pretty sure there is a built-in raincover in the bottom of the new Citro

[@HikerDudeDad]

I ran out to check as soon as I saw this! I definitely do not see a rain cover or pocket for one. Oh well!

[@ubergaard]

@@HikerDudeDad Strange.. i checked their website and it states a rain cover is included. But perhaps it’s just separate from the bag
