As a new parent, being active with my little explorer is one of my main goals. I want to share the experiences with them that I missed out on. This backpack is an extremely comfortable way to make that possible. Chest harnesses and back straps don't work when it's 90 degrees and muggy outside. Everyone ends up covered in sweat and miserable! The Journey PerfectFIT is so comfortable and secure, the little munchkin fell asleep within the first 15 minutes of exploring the East Texas Piney Woods. Not to mention, this pack is even comfortable enough and has enough adjustments for my petite wife to carry our little 8-month-old monster, who weighs in at a quarter (25lbs) of her weight already. The built-in sunshade and feet stirrups were what sold me on this pack over its competitors, and I stand by that decision after seeing them in action. If this pack is in your budget, I say it is money well spent. \r\n\r\nP.S. Be prepared to have a conversation about the pack with every other hiker you run across. Whether your baby is spurring you in the sides and holding on with a big grin or passed out napping on your back, folks can't help but talk about the Journey PerfectFIT Elite.","textLength":1275,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":false,"autoModerated":false,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":"Anthony H.","firstName":null,"lastName":null,"emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":"United States","state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":null,"purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2025-06-06T00:00:00-04:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[],"syndication":{"sourceName":"kelty.com","siteUrl":"https://www.kelty.com/","logoUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/site/syndicationlogos/2102_LH48.png"},"catalogItems":[{"sku":"1465-22650118","title":"KELTY Journey Perfectfit Elite Backpack Insignia Blue","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/1465-22650118","category":"pack-accessories","reviewCount":124,"ratingCount":124,"averageRating":4.8,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":1,"2":1,"3":3,"4":8,"5":111},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":4230871,"locale":"en_US","rating":5,"title":"Freedom to explore ","text":"I’m obsessed and so is my toddler, which is saying a lot because she’s sassy and has a lot to say about everything.

It is perfect size to pack diaper bag contents, a DLSR camera with accessories, snacks, and drinks for a day trip. I carried my kid through small European shops (carefully given the pack size), palace/castle tours, trail hikes, caverns, the aquarium, zoo, etc. It has met every expectation for traveling parents.\r\n\r\nI have no significant critiques on the fit and construct. When packed correctly, it is balanced and comfortable. The hip straps and pockets are great, side handles are well-placed for putting the pack on, and the storage areas are well-designed. \r\n\r\nAs for the little one, my kid loves it. He is completely content when traveling in the pack. It takes some effort to get legs through the harness but that seems inevitable with any carrier. The harness is very secure which is added peace of mind. An added benefit at crowded zoos and aquariums is your kid will be able to see over most other folks or you can pivot so they can see over railings/ledges without having to pick them up.","textLength":1122,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":false,"autoModerated":false,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":"M","firstName":null,"lastName":null,"emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":"United States","state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":null,"purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2022-11-30T00:00:00-05:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[],"syndication":{"sourceName":"kelty.com","siteUrl":"https://www.kelty.com/","logoUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/site/syndicationlogos/2102_LH48.png"},"catalogItems":[{"sku":"1465-22650118","title":"KELTY Journey Perfectfit Elite Backpack Insignia Blue","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/1465-22650118","category":"pack-accessories","reviewCount":124,"ratingCount":124,"averageRating":4.8,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":1,"2":1,"3":3,"4":8,"5":111},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]}],"offset":0,"limit":10,"total":124}
