G'day Fiona,

Yes, Camelbak is lead and phthalate free.
As far as I'm aware there are not too many reputable hydration brands around that would contain these things.

G'dayJan,

They're a fairly tight fit, but as long as you line up the notches in the lid before you twist it then it shouldn't leak. If you think the item might be faulty please jump onto our warranty claims page and submit a claim for assessment.

G'day Sam,

The Camelbak Mini Mule has a pack height of around 24cm and has fully adjustable straps. I'd double check by measuring your daughters back, from the shoulders down, to make sure that 24cm isn't going to be too long. If that fit looks ok to you it's going to be an excellent choice and will give her several years of well-hydrated adventures!

G'day Sue,

We know for certain that the larger reservoirs from Camelbak are BPA free, but there's no mention in regards to the Mini MULE.  They look and feel exactly the same as the others though so I'd wager that they are.  Let us know if you'd like us to follow up with our Rep and find out a definite answer.  Cheers :)

G'day again Sue,

Yep, I have confirmed all Camelbak Reservoirs are BPA free.

G'day Charlotte,

You're welcome to give us a call on 1300 914 007 anytime you'd like to confirm our stock levels. Unfortunately, once you place your order online we'll start the process of packing and sending it as quickly as we can. My suggestion would be to leave it until your friend is at the new address then give us a call. We can still ship them to you from our Adelaide warehouse if we're out of stock in Brisbane. 

G'day Charlotte,

Sorry but we only ship within Australia. 

G'day Amanda,

I'm a pretty short adult (5'4") so I'm probably a good comparison! You'd probably be alright to look at any of the adult range I suspect. The Camelbak Mule 3L is a classic model and I've been using mine for, hmmmmm, five years I think with no plans to upgrade anytime soon. It can be compressed down and makes a great pack for just carrying water, but I'm always impressed with how much gear I can fit in there eg bike tools, food and rain jacket etc. Alternatively look at something like the Camelbak Classic 2.5L Crux if you really just want him to carry water and something small like keys & sunscreen. 

G'day Ange,

The hydration bladder can be taken out of the Camelbak Mini MULE Kids Hydration Pack, which allows you to clean it or just use the bag without having a hydration pack in it. 

G'day Belinda,

My 6-year-old daughter has one of these and it fits her pretty well. I would guess that it would fit her until she's about 10 but would then need to look at getting an adult one after that.

G'day Zeb,

Thanks a million for the nice words about our site and service! We've got 2 colours of the Camelbak Mini MULE Kids Hydration Packs on the way. We've got the Navy Blazer/Amparo Blue and the Azalea Pink/Aruba Blue in our regular stock.
