Jack Wolfskin Vent Pro Cap

Next, we review Jack Wolfskin Jack Pot De Luxe Rucksack, this bag has an endless amount of compartments and pockets, which I particularly enjoyed exploring prior to taking it out on a little hike in the Moors where my dad lives. In total there are at least 2 compartments and 5 pockets…. it also has a compartment for tablet / ipad, which I didn’t use on the day but can confirm one does fit quite neatly inside. I did however, have my laptop with me and I did use the laptop case inside which is great as its padded and would really protect your tablet if you were going long distance or if it fell to the ground. I packed in the bag a small lunch, a few bottles of water and some bits like anti-allergy medicine (as my daughter is allergic to horses but still insists on stroking them whenever we come across them on walks!). It would have comfortably fitted three times the amount of what I actually packed, such as a full adult change of clothes, more toiletries, scissors, first aid kit – both my computer and tablet, plus wires and batteries. I even think I could have comfortably packed on top of that my camera with large lens. My dad wore the bag for most of our walk and he found it really comfortable to wear even with the amount of water we were carrying. It also had a full rain cover, which is great, as with space for electrical’s you don’t want it to get wet inside in any way. Simply Hike website describes the rucksack as “perfect for commuting and everyday use and comes with a removable laptop case and accessories bag as well as a raincover to ensure all your essentials and electronics stay dry”. The Jack Pot De Luxe Rucksack costs £63, which is discounted at the moment as it normally retails for £90. So you are getting both items at a great price. Especially the rucksack which I think, has been made really well with a great spec and is extremely good quality.


Simply Hike’s website is really easy to navigate and sell all kinds of outdoor products including Jack Wolfskin products which includes outdoor clothing, footwear, sampling items (such as tents and sleeping bags), hiking gear, bags and ski wear and gear, which is fab. I will definitely be looking on here again, especially if we get to go skiing again!

I have been looking for a decent sized walking rucksack for a while. I walk to work and struggle with a tote handbag bulging and weighed down by my laptop.
This rucksack is one I will definitely be trying out in the near future – Thanks for sharing this very informative post!
Your welcome Katie-Louise, this bag would do the job easily for you.
I like that it includes a padded back. This comes in handy for when you’re hiking mountains.
Yes and carrying heavy items in the back, this helps to distribute the weight
The backpack looks great, perfect to use as a day pack. I am actually looking for something similar for my upcoming trip to Asia, and I will take this into consideration.
That’s great news Joanna, have a safe trip to Asia and yes this bad can fit a lot of items and helps you to compartmentalise things
The padded back really does make all the difference! Fab review. x
Yes it does Hollie, thank you
I like the look of the size of this rucksack as it looks a great size for a day trip, or an over night stay.
Yes just the right size to pack all your necessities
awww.. I need this backpack for my son but it’s not yet here in Manila.
the size and features is perfect for school use.
Hope they do start selling it in Manila Mei, we are sure your son would love this
This looks like a super backpack and durable too. Do they come in a camo print?
Not at the moment Tina, they do have other ranges of bags on the website, do have a nosey
The simple things, a padded back! That is ideal cos the back takes so much strain and needs all the support it can get
Exactly, as someone who tends not to pack light when travelling this is such a benefit
That rucksack looks fantastic – I do love a bag with plenty of compartments especially when travelling or on a day out! It looks very durable. That cap looks very comfortable too.
Yes its very durable Rebecca and sturdy as well, so great for travelling
I’ve been on the hunt for a better rucksack for so long! This looks great!
Glad you like to Charlotte

Its totally padded Eva, so can take a tumble or two and still keep the imacs intact x
That rucksack looks great for hiking or to have on hand for a city trip – I love a bag with lots of compartments!
Us too Leigh, we find compartments keeps us more organised and less messy. Its also easier to find items this way
I have been looking for a great rucksack and this one looks looks great. This bag looks cool for travelling because of all the compartments. It looks it is made well also. The cap is a great addition also.
Yes its a lovely set for hiking or travelling with heavy items in your rucksack
that rucksack looks awesome. i think it’s something that my daughter would love. i’ll have to check it out more.
Hope you do Katrina, its a great rucksack x
I’m always on the look out for a good rucksack as I prefer them for hand luggage instead of a case. Thanks for this.
Your welcome Jo, glad you like this
I love how many pockets this bag has. It’s perfect for hiking and traveling.
Yes it sure is Bianca
Simply Hike’s Jack Wolfskin Hiking Cap and Rucksack look like great products for avid hikers. Thank you for sharing your review.
Your welcome Autumn x
This looks like a great pack! I’ve been looking for a decent one to take when I go for long walks with the kids. They are 3 & 1, so we bring A LOT of stuff when we go for our little outdoor excursions. (Diapers, snacks, extra clothes, bug spray, sunscreen, water bottles…)
As mums ourselves we can safely say this is a fab bag to pack loads of stuff Marie and even better that its all compartmentalised as well.
I’ve never been the biggest backpack user but have started to lean for them more since the contents of my bag have grown!
The bag is really great and allows you to pack and carry more things than a normal bag
The multi functionality of that looks really cool! 🙂
Yes indeed, totally agree
