Why have separate packs for workday and weekend when this one covers both? Based on Patagonia’s versatile 26L and 30L Refugio packs, this 32L version is the biggest brother in the Refugio family – giving you plenty of extra room for gym kit, climbing shoes, an extra layer, or enough supplies for a full day on the trail. Like its smaller siblings, there's a removable padded laptop sleeve (fits devices up to 15") that slots into its own dedicated compartment, complete with two drop-in mesh pockets and a zip pocket for cables and other bits. There’s a roomy main compartment with two sets of organisation pockets, plus two large front pockets. You’ve got mesh bottle-holders on the sides, and there are some crafty compression straps that you can also use for attaching extra gear to the outside of the pack. In fact, it’ll take so much stuff that the careful packer could easily take it on a weekend break.
| Body | 2-layer, 7.3-oz 400-denier 100% postconsumer recycled polyester plain weave with a PU coating and a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish made without intentionally added PFAS |
| Lining | 3-oz 200-denier 100% recycled polyester plain weave with a PU coating |
| Back panel & shoulder straps | 7.8-oz 100% recycled polyester airmesh |
| Exterior side pockets & interior drop-in pockets | 5-oz 100% recycled polyester mesh |
| Webbing | 100% recycled nylon |
Patagonia is the brand that other gear companies want to be when they grow up. In 2022, the company's founder, Yvon Chouinard, famously gave the company to the planet. It’s now jointly controlled by a charitable trust and a not-for-profit dedicated to fighting the climate crisis, and all post-operating profits go to environmental causes.
But in some ways that’s the tip of the (melting) iceberg. For nearly half a century, Patagonia has been an experiment in responsible business. From the farms that grow their cotton to the factories that make their goods and everything in-between, they’ve tried incredibly hard to set the gold standard in terms of ethics, transparency and social responsibility. Not only that, but their gear is made to last – to take hard use and repairs, and to maintain its performance through thick and thin.
All of which is even more extraordinary when you consider that Yvon Chouinard started out blacksmithing climbing gear for his mates in his parents' backyard, using a forge and anvil that he bought from a junkyard.
At WildBounds we don’t usually tend to go for the big-name brands, but this was one we simply couldn’t resist. Quite apart from their amazing ethical and environmental credentials, they just make great gear. We’ve used it and loved it for years, and you will too.
