Backpack straps

[71mets]

Hey, just bought my pack. It's a little smaller than I thought, with less space inside and fewer straps on the pack itself.  Is there any such thing as a cord or a strap you can use to fasten your gear to the backpack itself?  If so can I have a few recommendations?  Many thanks

REI has quite a few options here:

What type of backpack is it and what type of gear do you need to attach?

55L internal frame.  Looking to attach an extra stuff sack (or two). Many thanks for your help

Gotcha, was wondering more which model to look at the options that might be available.  In any event I bet you could make it happen one way or another with a set of straps from the link above, or a lot of backpacks will have side straps and / or top straps built in, as well as some outside bungee options. Also if there are built in loops at the bottom of the pack you could potentially use those for an attachment point. You can use the loop of the drawstring or the buckle built in to roll top stuff sacks / dry bags to further secure everything.
