Ive long believed that outdoor gear should balance practicality with a little bit of aesthetic joy, and the Gandys Urban Trek backpack delivers on both fronts. Gandys is a brand with real purpose behind it founded by two brothers following the loss of their parents in the 2004 tsunami, that ethos runs through everything they make. The Urban Trek is their modular 3-in-1 backpack, designed to transition seamlessly between urban life and outdoor adventures. Ive been testing it on everything from woodland walks to town errands over the past few weeks, and its become something of a constant companion. Read on for our full review.What is it?Gandys Urban Trek BackpackFeatures30L capacityWater resistantModularDimensions: 50 x 40 x 15cmWeight: 0.65KgRecycled outer shellAs the days continue to lengthen, I find myself drawn to spending time outdoors more than ever, and I always need something to carry day-hike essentials in.This modular backpack from Gandys has a 30L capacity, providing plenty of room for your essentials, from spare waterproofs and a good-sized water bottle to that all-important snack stash, with room to spare should I need to stow my jacket when faced with a sudden autumn heatwave.The quality of this backpack is excellent and visually, the colours and styling are the perfect fit for my usual outdoor aesthetic, because as much as I want my gear to be functional, I want it to look good too.Modular MagicOne feature that stands out for me is the modular design, with a smaller bag securely clipped to the larger pack but simple enough to remove for use when you dont need to take it all with you.I loved this as I have a stoma and found it a great way to store my necessary medical supplies and still have enough room for my phone. Perfect for popping into a little cafe after a day rambling the woods.Comfortable without compromising weight, the back panel and straps are suitably padded the Urban Trek didnt feel like a strain with the amount I was carrying. This isnt a pack for hardcore mountain hikes, more a versatile choice that caters to everyday urban use just as well as it copes with a day out in the woods and countryside walks.The Urban Trek 3-in-1 is a strong contender for anyone who mixes urban and outdoor life and wants a bag that keeps up with both. The colourway and detailing are genuinely lovely, the modular design is inspired, and the versatility is hard to beat whether youre heading out for a day in the woods or just need a stylish, practical bag for everyday use. Its become my go-to and I cant see that changing anytime soon.The bag is available in 2 different colours and you can find out more about the Gandys Urban Trek Backpack here.DISCLOSURE | Thank you to Gandys for supplying the featured product for us to test.
