The versatile 18L rucksack has been praised for its useful size and storage, and the Regatta sale has cut the price to £10.80.

Finding a backpack that offers enough room for everything you need without becoming bulky can be tricky. But Regatta shoppers have been praising the Shilton 18L Backpack, which is currently available for £12 in the sale.

Better still, shoppers can use code TAKE10 at checkout to get a further 10% off, reducing the price to just £10.80.

The Shilton 18L Backpack is designed to sit somewhere between a compact everyday rucksack and a much larger hiking bag.

Measuring 45.5 x 29 x 14.5cm, it has an 18-litre capacity that should provide plenty of space for everyday essentials, making it suitable for everything from school and university to commuting, travel and days outdoors.

One five-star reviewer said they had struggled to find a bag that offered the right amount of space before discovering the Shilton.

"Bought because my daily rucksack was too small and my hiking one was too big. This is just right!" they wrote.

That middle-ground size is likely to be one of the backpack's biggest selling points. It is large enough for those occasions when a small day bag isn't quite sufficient, while avoiding the bulk associated with a full-sized outdoor rucksack.

The design also includes adjustable shoulder straps and a padded back panel, which should make it more comfortable to carry when you're out and about for longer periods.

Another five-star customer had school in mind when buying the backpack, describing it as a "Great haversack for school boy off to senior school."

Its practical features don't stop there. The Shilton has multiple pockets to help keep belongings organised, while reflective detailing could prove useful for anyone carrying it during darker mornings or evenings.

A third five-star reviewer bought the backpack for a trip and was particularly impressed with its storage and weather resistance.

"Bought this backpack for a trip, it was waterproof and had plenty of storage for what I needed," they wrote, adding that they also liked the colour, quality and price.

Regatta describes the Shilton as suitable for weekends away and big days out in the hills, but its relatively compact dimensions mean it could also work well as an everyday backpack.

Made from 100% polyester, it has a straightforward design intended for regular use, while the 18-litre capacity gives it enough flexibility to be used for a range of different activities.

The current price makes it particularly tempting for anyone looking for an inexpensive replacement or spare bag.

The backpack is reduced from £40 to £12, but entering code TAKE10 at checkout takes another £1.20 off the sale price.

That brings the cost down to just £10.80, meaning shoppers can pick up an 18L backpack for considerably less than its original price.

The Shilton is available in three colour options: dusty pink, camouflage and Delhi red.

For anyone after a versatile bag for school, commuting, travel, walking or simply carrying more on a day out, its combination of storage, practical features and low sale price could make it worth a look.
