Dana Design Backpacks - New World (2)

[Little Bill]

I inherited two Dana Design backpacks from my folks. They bought the packs in ~2001 with intent to go backwoods hiking, but it never materialized due to health. I don't think that the packs have ever seen a trail. They may have been worn around the house, but that is probably it. They estimated that they paid ~$200 each for the backpacks, and they were top-end. A quick search of completed listings on ebay shows that the DD packs are sought after, as they are not made anymore and are great.

 

The two packs are both Dana Design New World, that have 3000ci capacity and weigh 3lbs. I found a spec sheet online:

 

DANA DESIGN New World pack $199

"Keep It Simple" is the theme of Dana's new Day Tech family of four day packs designed to help you carry awkward loads--books, groceries, rocks--in comfort. The New World, biggest at 3,000 cu. in., shares all the same features: HDPE framesheet with Spinal Axis Shape Stay, Zephyr "C" Curve Shoulder Pads, Cranium Rod, and a modular OSL belt with breathable matrix foam body panels, It also has Dana's trademark twin zips and lid closure.

 

The blue pack is size "Smaller" and the green pack is size "Bigger". I found the sizes on a very small tag by the back rest of the pack.

 

I am going to ask $120 each or both for $200, plus actual shipping costs. I would wager they are worth more than that, but I hate listing things on fleabay.
