Comments about Equinox Day Pack and Day & 1/2 Pack Rain Cover (Small): Excellent backpack cover. Well constructed, quality materials fits well on a normal sized daypack used for commuting and it hugs the pack without slipping.

Best Uses
Comments about Equinox Day Pack and Day & 1/2 Pack Rain Cover (Small): Does not stay in place in backpacks with shoulder straps that are attached to the top of the pack. Solved the problem by sewing on each side a one-inch wide band with Velcro closure to hold in place the upper part of the rain cover ($5 for the strap and another $5 at the neighborhood seamstress to do the job -- an added expense that approximately doubled the cost of item.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend Images shared by Bob Velcro straps sewed to upper part of rain cover  (2 of 2 customers found this review helpful) Was this review helpful? Yes / No - You may also flag this review Pros

Comments about Equinox Day Pack and Day & 1/2 Pack Rain Cover (Small): Since my pack is narrow towards the top...the cover had no way to secure itself to my pack. I had a web strap sewn on each side of the cover about 3" down from the top - the strap wraps around my pack and each end is secured to each other with a belt type clip. I also had the top of the cover 'tucked' and sewn to narrow up the top a bit. With the modifications the cover works excellent and provides my pack protection from the elements.

Comments about Equinox Day Pack and Day & 1/2 Pack Rain Cover (Small): The cover slips off the bottom of a computer backpack because there is no feature on the backpack for the cover to wrap around or grip on. It's a mismatch for this application.

Comments about Equinox Day Pack and Day & 1/2 Pack Rain Cover (Small): I have a Kelty redtail day pack and it will not stay on when there is wind. I had to engineer some bungy cords to keep the top part in place. Otherwise it will slip off. I would recommend trying another brand or just use a trash bag if it rains.

Cons Best Uses
Comments about Equinox Day Pack and Day & 1/2 Pack Rain Cover (Small): I use this to cover my motorcycle saddlebags when it's raining. Easy on and off and completely waterproof. I set the shock cord and leave it alone. I find repeated stretching of similar cords results in quick degradation of the elasticity.

Q:
I have a Marmot backpack -- 30 liters (1835cu in) -- and assume this is the rain cover I should consider? Any others in this size and/or different colors?
Also, how is this secured onto the pack itself -- is it cinched with a drawstring all the way around it only? Or, are there snaps at the top to secure it to the backpack straps also?
Lastly, does it come with a pouch, or can it be folded up into a sewn-in mesh pouch?
Thank you for your time in answering these questions.Asked on 10/2/2011 by calliope.orfeos.dad from new york city1 answer
A:
There is a drawcord on the end of the Equinox Rain Cover that allows to open and close it. This is the proper size for a 30 Liter pack. No storage pouch.Answered on 10/4/2011 by Steve from Campmor
Q:
Does this pack have elastic band all around the opening? Why don't you have a real photo of the product instead of the bag it comes in?Asked on 9/12/2011 by Anonymous1 answer

Q:
Is there a way to attatch this to a school backpack (does not have a raised lip where the shoulder straps meet the backpack on top?Asked on 8/19/2011 by Anonymous from Parker, CO1 answer
A:
I think what you are saying is that the shoulder straps meet the top of the pack without there being a top that extends beyond the point your shoulder straps meet the pack. If this is the case then the rain cover would tend to slip off.Answered on 8/23/2011 by Steve from Campmor
