The canvas is a nice material that feels pretty tear resistant. The front pouches are finally a good size which is hard to find although they could be a little wider on the side ones. The main area is just one big maw with no partitions which I prefer over all the extra flaps or dual pouch style. I'm a K9 handler and I keep a dog first aid kit, Jute toy, muzzle, work belt with cuffs and flashlight rolled up, and a few other small things in it and it closes just fine. The issues tho are the straps to wear it and close the big pouch. They are short to wear it. A co worker tried it on because he liked the look but at 6'2" and 260 the straps were not long enough to reach around him and clasp back on to the bag. I'm 5'8" and around 190 and there is about an inch and a half of extra left over which is pushing the minimum to stay in place. Plus the part where it connects is hidden under the bag and very short and unlike the military style you cant give it a lift on your shoulders and tighten them as they pull backwards in direction from that style of bag which makes it very hard to adjust where it rides on your back once you have it on. The front straps to close it attach at the same place, under the bag. So if the bag is sitting on a desk you can't close it without tipping it backwards making it a little awkward. These are first world problems though so I still gave it 5 because it's big enough without being a full ruck, feels durable, and I got a couple "nice bag" compliments in a few weeks. I am working on modifying the straps to be better which is a mild annoyance but for the overall price well worth a little extra effort. Review: My new edc pack. - I was undecided on whether to get this or not. I have enough backpacks, but for the price, and a comment from another reviewer about good durability, I bought it. I am glad I did. The "mini" in the title misled me slightly. I was expecting something quite small, in my opinion, it is not small. I'd consider it a medium sized backpack. A large edc pack. The shoulder straps are soft, not meant for heavy loads, but comfortable. It has 3 nice sized external pouches, all with flaps and straps. Old School straps that you easily pass thru the buckles, no quick release anything here. I like that old school feature, some may not. The external pouches could carry a fat water bottle, not the thin tall type. The main compartment is roomy and closed first with a drawstring, then with a flap and strap, again easily passed thru metal buckles. It is capable of carrying a lot of your lighter belongings. I wouldn't use it for a book bag, some of those text books are too heavy, but anything lighter for your daily trips, this is a good pack. A pair of size 12 tennis shoes fit nicely in the bottom of the main compartment, and a ranger style rolled change of clothes would leave room for other stuff. I don't usually leave lengthy reviews, but this is worthwhile. I got the olive drab, and there are a few other color options that I will consider purchasing soon. In case you didn't get the idea, I highly recommend. ## Features - Timeless Design: Inspired by the iconic Alice backpack, ideal for outdoor excursions. - Top Grade Canvas: Made from Rothco’s durable heavyweight canvas fabric, this superior material is naturally water-resistant, rugged, and is built for the long haul. - Large-Capacity Storage: With a 20L capacity, this canvas bag is perfect for carrying essentials on the trail. - Stay Organized: Features 3 exterior flap closure pockets for organizing gear and equipment. - Adventure-Ready: Adjustable straps for comfortable wear, front flap closure for additional gear, and canvas loops for mounting emergency equipment. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000BFJE3I | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #634,941 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ( See Top 100 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ) #635 in Men's Military Accessories #30,859 in Luggage & Travel Gear | | Brand Name | Rothco | | Capacity Total | 550 Cubic Inches | | Color | Olive Drab | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (1,377) | | Date First Available | October 2, 2001 | | Item Dimensions LxWxH | 5.75 x 12.75 x 16 inches | | Item Package Dimensions L x W x H | 15.83 x 13.39 x 3.58 inches | | Item Weight | 2.1 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Rothco | | Material | Canvas | | Model Name | Alice Pack | | Model Year | 2001 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Outer Material | 100% Heavyweight Canvas | | Package Weight | 1.05 Kilograms | | Part Number | 613902248700 | | Size | 16" x 13" x 7" | | Sport Type | Trekking | | Style | Rucksack Backpacks | | Suggested Users | mens | | Units | 1 Count | ## Images ![Rothco Mini Alice Pack – Heavyweight 18 OZ Cotton Canvas Rucksack – 20L Capacity - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81TjGo40lpL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this fit on an alice frame?** A: I had one a LONG time ago. It is not made for the LC2 ALICE frame, but for the older LC1 frame which doesn't look anything like the "modern" one. I had to have the back pad cut in the middle and put eyelets on either side so I could lace it to fit - a pointless modification, given the cost. This pack will only fit halfway down an ALICE frame - the bottom half was left empty for a sleeping bag/radio/ammo/etc. to be strapped on. It's pre LC2 Vietnam era and rather smaller. **Q: How many liters of capacity?** A: It is 23.8595652 liters **Q: do the shoulder straps have the quick release snap and clip set up?** A: No, no straps at all. I put some on my self. **Q: dose it have a front buckle at the waist?** A: Nope. the shoulder straps are pretty close together and pretty wide though so for a day pack it's pretty great. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice bag, some small issues *by B***N on June 12, 2014* Small issues but I still gave it 5 stars.

Straps are wide and comfortable on the shoulders, large central pouch stores many items without disrupting your center of gravity. Stitching is quality, material is not quite as heavy of a canvas as the original, but still stout enough to take any abuse you can throw at it. Buckles and straps hold pouches securely closed, even after days of hiking. My only issue was that the smaller pouches were not large enough to fit a GI-style canteen and cup, so I plan to sew a canteen pouch somewhere onto the pack. If you’re looking for a small to medium pack that’s perfect for any 1-3 day trip, in any environment, this is the pack for you. I’ve used packs that I paid a lot more for and haven’t been able to do nearly as much with. There’s a reason this style pack has been a faithful companion on my hunting and camping expeditions for over a decade ## Frequently Bought Together - Rothco G.I.
