Restrap Utility Hip Pack review – a hip pack or a bar bag? Well both actually

Photo of Hip pack from behind being worn.

Restrap make all of its bikepacking products in-house in Yorkshire. The brand's ethos is based around functionality and sustainability with all products being handmade and covered by a lifetime warranty. Its range is truly massive, covering all aspects of adventure and gravel riding. But my interest was piqued when I saw the Utility Hip pack, a multi-use pack that cleverly and easily converts from a hip pack to bar bag. I took to the trails on both my mountain bike and gravel bike to see how it measured up against the best hip packs and best bar bags on offer.  

It's easy to dial in a secure fit, and this pack stays in place (Image credit: Georgina Hinton)
