A Huge Gear Hauler, the Oakley Kitchen Sink Carries a Big Load

The Oakley Kitchen Sink is a monster backpack that can help you store all your gadgets, including a laptop and a water bladder.

Nowadays, hiking is made easier and more convenient with gadgets as part of your everyday gear. You can bring an electronic navigator and map to find your way in the mountains and keep your pace with an MP3 player to enjoy the scenery with music.

The name of this Oakley backpack might seem a bit odd, but old-timers know that it means you can stuff everything but the kitchen sink into this hauler. The Kitchen Sink has a lot of anchors, D-rings, tie-downs, straps, pouches and pockets that make all your gear easily accessible and more organized.

While the Kitchen Sink is not designed for large gear, it is one of the best packs for storing smaller items and accessories. Oakley made the traditional single main compartment into different smaller compartments that separate the wet stuff from the dry gear to avoid damaging the latter.


As for your laptop, Oakley ensures its safety within the internal foam-padded sleeve. This part serves as the main pocket and it keeps your notebook protected when crossing a bumpy trail. It also safeguards your laptop from theft with two large D-rings that run across the lid. Sometimes it takes extra effort to get to your laptop, but it's worth the extra security that the Kitchen Sink provides.

For easy access to the larger pockets, the top of Kitchen Sink can be lifted like a hatch. However, there's a separate lockable zipper that prevents the mixing of dry and wet gear in the main compartment.

This pack has three side compression straps, shoulder straps and an O-Luminum strap that aids in weight distribution and provides comfort to the user. There's also a bottom pocket where you can store the wet and soiled items like slippers or towels.
