    A really great budget bag is the LA Police Gear 3 day pack. I have several of them for different things, but I've used them for camping, emergency bags, and one I've used as a daily bag for work for almost 2 years with hardly any signs of wear. It looks like it will easily last another 5+ years of daily use. If you're looking for a framed pack, these aren't it, but they are a really great cheap backpack.

    Ditto. I have tried other similar packs and none of them work as well as the LAPG3Day. Between work, being a boy scout leader and other stuff I keep 3 of them and my two sons each use it for a school book bag. Super sturdy and very good for the small cost. My only hit on it is the lack of smaller interior storage options, but for ~$30, I can't really complain too much.
    14 . Always carry a change of underwear.

    Another vote for Lapolice gear.
    I have both their operator and the three day pack.
    The three day is used for our first aid kit and emergency pack on the boat and/or camping. Plenty of room for the essentials. I have this for four years and holds up really well.

    I just got the operator pack last week when it was on sale for$39.99 so no real review as of yet. I do like that it has separate storage for a water bladder and all the inside compartments are nice. The exterior webbing, like back packs have, is nice to add additional smaller packs to.
    I am planning to use this as a hunting pack for elk/deer this season.

    There's an Easter sale now and got this in an email blast. Might be worth a look.

    Wow, I hadn't seen that operator pack before. There are a few things I wish the 3 day pack had (like internal organization and a bladder pouch) and it looks like the "operator" pack has them. I might need to get one...
