When you don't want to use a large backpack, this sling style pack/Mini backpack by Victorinox will make a nice alternative. Made by the makers of the Swiss Army knife, this pack has versatility. 9 inches high, 7 wide, and 1 1/4 from back to front empty. Has pads for comfort on body contact points, adjustable strap, and multi compartments for gear. There is 1 side pocket 2 3/8 inches wide for cell phone, and a mesh pocket on other side for beverage storage. The only condition issues are some small scattered white spots here and there as pictures show which will not effect the use. From a smoke free home. Thank you for looking ! loc/39-25/7125/pg75
