Matador Refraction
I use a Matador Refraction for a packable day pack.
I don’t carry a laptop and find the Matador Refraction an excellent packable backpack with a comfortable harness and great set of pockets.
I like the Matador Refraction for a packable day touring bag.
The Matador ReFraction seems to be well liked. It's only 16 l though.

Atom packs - the only decent UL pack i could find in my recent search.
I ordered it according to the size guide and I am very happy with my pack.
I followed their instructions and like how my pack fits.
Last time I checked Atom packs take 2 to 3 months to ship which sucks because their packs are the best looking out of all european options. If I had time to wait id pick their backpack for sure
Atom packs is in the UK and makes great stuff, which simplifies the decision a bit.
