Adrenaline 30L Day Pack blends lightweight design with all-day comfort and alpine durability
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I’ve used the Adrenaline 30L on everything from ridge scrambles to long day hikes. It carries weight surprisingly well thanks to the padded hip belt, and the dual daisy chains are super handy for stashing layers or clipping gear. It’s light, streamlined, and built tough."
Whether we’re moving fast through alpine terrain or racking up trail miles on an all-day hike, the Outdoor Research Adrenaline 30L Day Pack keeps us light, comfortable, and prepared. Designed with the essentials in mind, this fast-and-light pack strikes the perfect balance between minimalist efficiency and supportive comfort, making it ideal for quick-strike mountain missions or casual treks through the woods.
Its durable ripstop nylon shell fends off abrasion and unexpected weather, while a padded hip belt takes pressure off the shoulders and improves weight distribution on longer hauls. Ergonomically contoured shoulder straps and back panel hug close to the torso for a stable fit, and the hydration-compatible interior sleeve keeps water at the ready. Dual daisy chains and external water bottle pockets add convenient access and gear stow options. When we need one pack to do it all—and do it fast—this is the one we grab.

Cheaply Made
This backpack was expensive but not good quality. The outer pocket ripped in multiple areas after light use. The straps to clip the bag to you for hiking fall off all the time, very inconvenient when hiking. Used this bag for work as Lift Operations Lead in Colorado & I would not recommend

Love it!
I like deep water bottle slots, a zippered padded top pocket to keep valuables and ergonomic shoulder straps and back panels, which are comfortable. I like that this backpack doesn't have too many compartments.

Good no frills bag
Good no frills bags. Going to use it as a personal item airline bag. Not a lot of pockets and light.

Used this as an everyday/gym bag for a few months now, feels comfortable wearing it and like the nalgene sized side pockets. Really wish it has some internal pockets in the main compartment, zippers can be difficult to get to, trade-off being a little extra security while traveling.

Nothing outstanding about this backpack besides how light, though and stain resistant it is. The top pouch if the perfect size to put sunglasses and wallet and any other small items. It works perfectly for traveling because I can fit 4+ pairs of clothes and it will still fit under the seat in a plane.

Good day pack but could be improved
would of like there to be more stuff for organization or another small pocket. Also the plastic is either to thin or to cheap on the hip belt because mine broke already only a month into it.

Great Backpack!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have used this only a few times now, but am pleased. Both my husband and I can use it as there are so many ways to adjust fitting. Thanks for a great pack!

Love the bag but there are definitely some improvements
Pros: the bag has one large compartment to fit all your stuff inside and a small zipper pocket on the top. The material is water-resistant to a certain extent and confident it can keep my stuff dry when it rains. Super light weight. Cons: the hip straps are too long and no clip to hold the daggling straps, so it looks like I am where a Judo belt when I walk. Not enough pockets are other areas for storage. The side pockets are tiny, can't fit my phone, best you can do it put 2 granola bars or a pack of gum or keys. The shoulder straps are thin so carrying heavy loads is not possible. Overall, would recommend maybe for a work bag..

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a new bag for traveling and this was the perfect size to throw my computer and a few days worth of clothes. Quality is great, I love the zippers
