Whether you hike, travel, or shop, a daypack is essential. Although some people use a regular backpack, having a smaller daypack is more convenient and easier on your back.
Disclosure: I received the Merinte DayPack TRAVELPACK – MINI RUCKSACK “MY BACKPACK IN A POCKET” in exchange for my unbiased review. All opinions are 100% mine.
I’m always on the hunt for extra daypacks. But finding space and putting them away can be a problem. So I was excited to learn about the Merinte DayPack TRAVELPACK – MINI RUCKSACK “MY BACKPACK IN A POCKET.”
Merinte DayPack, a Backpack in a Pocket
Lightweight, compact daypack that folds into itself
The Merinte DayPack:
- Comes in 2 color combinations (gray/pink or blue/black)
- Folds into a pocket
- Lightweight (4.5 ounces) but can hold 41 pounds
- Includes a key hook for keys or to hang the daypack
- Has padded shoulder straps
- Has reflective strips

I have rain jackets that fold into a pocket, so I thought the Merinte DayPack would be constructed out of heavier material. But I was pleasantly surprised by the thin polyester material. It makes it much easier to fold and put away.
Easily folds into a pocket
The front pocket can store your wallet, car keys, and sunglasses. While the larger main pocket can hold everything else. And I do mean everything else. You’ll be surprised by how much you can pack in this compact bag.
Many Uses
1) Shopping Bag
Because the fabric is thin you can see what’s in the daypack, so you may not want to use it to carry valuables or anything private. You can use it as a shopping bag.
So ditch those grocery store plastic bags and use the Merinte Backpack in a Pocket. Unless you don’t want your neighbors knowing how much rhubarb you’re buying.
Don’t use for classified documents
