Hauter Water Bag

Long overdue review but I had bought this bag for edc lv and have used it for every festival since so far. Compartments are super convenient especially the back pocket. I usually attach my clutch loop to the back zipper and store my phone there for extra protection. The white does get dirty easily but I’ve thrown in the wash a few times and it’s held up pretty well still.

Beautiful color my girlfriend loves it! Can’t wait to use it to all our future raves!

This review is long overdue! Where do I even begin?
First off, I loved this backpack. I’ve used it for the gym to hold small essentials (i.e. booty bands, ankle straps, water, gum, chapstick, hand sanitizer, and an extra set of clothes). I’ve also used it for the airport to take with me on the plane because it definitely holds a lot more than my purses do. I was able to pack a light sweater, snacks, my iPad, a charger, a portable charger for my phone, wallet, chapstick, hand sanitizer, sunglasses, gum, and a water bottle. I could’ve easily fit more things in the backpack but that was really all I needed. I really appreciate the side water bottle pockets cause they’re extremely handy! It doesn’t take up valuable space inside of the backpack and it allows easy access to grab the water bottle without having to take the whole backpack off. I also really appreciated the hidden phone pocket cause I always have trouble figuring out where to stow my phone for when I need my hands free, so it’s easy to just shove my phone in there for a quick second.

I’ve also taken the backpack with me to EDC! That was the ultimate test for sure. I’ll start by saying that it fit so much! I appreciated the secret pocket a little extra for the event because I was able to sneak in flasks to avoid paying ridiculous alcohol prices from the vendors. In addition to the water pouch and my flasks, I was able to fit two fans, a light sweater, a pack of gum (two packs on day 3), hand sanitizer, chapstick, wipes, toilet seat covers, two large rave fans, and a water bottle that I snuck in! After the first day, I learned that I didn’t need to actually sneak water bottles into the event (security check from the premier parking entrance allowed sealed bottles of water), so I decided to ditch the water pouch and just fill my bag up with water bottles instead. I had no issues with the water pouch personally, but the filtered water provided tasted funky, so I felt more comfortable drinking bottled water instead. I was able to fit everything that was in my bag stated before (with the water pouch) but with five bottles of water instead. Once again, the side pockets were so handy for the water bottles! My friend also had a hauter water bag and used her side pockets to hold her beat boxes LOL. I overall really loved this bag and would use it again and again.

There are a few minor things that I’m sure other reviews have mentioned though. First and main issue was that my zipper tabs actually broke off :( I was super sad about it because it made the actual zipper extremely hard to use. Almost unusable even? Second thing was the hidden phone compartment. For day to day use, I love the phone compartment! But for places like EDC or other music festivals where theft and pickpocketing is really common, I didn’t feel comfortable leaving my phone or wallet in there, so I ended up holding my phone in my hands the entire three days. It might help to have the zipper be the same color as the backpack so that it would blend in or have a little lip that goes over the zipper to hide it better? I hope that makes sense! My third thing may be more of a personal issue, but I did find the fabric of the backpack to retain a lot of extra heat. I found myself sweating so much with the backpack on. I don’t usually wear bags or anything to festivals or raves, so that could probably happen with any other backpack. But I did produce a lot of sweat on my back and the backpack would absorb the sweat LOL tmi I’m sorry, but I felt a little soggy and gross at times, so I do wish the fabric were a little more breathable to help with that.

Aside from those very minor things, I absolutely love the hauter brand, the backpack itself, and Coco for being the sweetest person ever 💕 I just know you’re reading all these reviews, taking all the feedback into consideration, and working to make the backpack even better than it already is. 🥰

Its a perfect bag size to take to festivals and anywhere

I saw this bag on Instagram a few days before EDC and knew I HAD to buy it!! The staff was so helpful in making sure I got my bag in time for EDC and I’m SOSOSO happy with my purchase!! The bag is SO SPACIOUS and there was a pocket on the side and top for all my little things! This bag was clearly thoroughly thought out when making because the convenience of all the pockets, hole for the hydration tube, straps, etc was all so well thought out and so nice to use. The best part is it’s so comfortable to wear and the puffy design is soooo cute! I can’t wait to use my bag for pickleball sessions (my paddle fits perfectly inside) in between raves! You won’t regret investing in such a high quality bag like this!
