Product Customer Reviews

Still as practical and solid
I like the simple and "discreet" side of the bag, the nets on each side are very good, the elimination of the belly strap too (I never closed it on my previous bag). The slightly more daring choice on your part, I think, is the vertical opening of the small pocket, I would have preferred a classic horizontal opening because I think it is more secure, here I hesitate to overfill this part so as not to let it fall. Initially I was looking for a 20/25L bag with a breathable frame, unfortunately that doesn't exist yet, I put it on this one and so... I always sweat when I wear it... too bad. I also like the rigid side, my old one was too flexible, we'll see if it stays. It's a good bag, to see if the closures last for years. I like hanging things up, there might be a string or something missing but that doesn't matter.
All-terrain backpack: sport, work, vacation Pretty and ultra-resistant A safe value since the user really doesn't pay attention to these things 😂 Computer well protected too Second purchase, the first having ended up wearing out after several years.
Very effective. Lightweight, comfortable to carry and many pockets
Perfect
I have had this bag for 3 years and I use it regularly, it is still in very good condition. Very practical for travel, hiking, classes. In addition you can put two bottles of water.

Additional Product Information
Composition
Main fabric: 100.0% Polyethylene Terephthalate ; Main lining: 100.0% Polyethylene Terephthalate ; Yoke: 100.0% Polyamide ; Webbing: 100.0% Polypropylene ; Bag cover: 100.0% Polyethylene Terephthalate
How is volume measured?
The volume of each backpack is measured using a standard method: We fill the main compartment, as well as each pocket, with little balls. Then we empty these balls into a graduated container, which gives the equivalent volume in liters.
How to adjust your backpack?
1 - Loosen all the straps (straps, belt, load adjuster straps). 2 - Put on the backpack. 3 - Tighten the shoulder straps. 4 - Adjust the load adjuster straps as needed.
How to fill your backpack?
Put your heavy items at the bottom. Pack your clothes around these items. Keep your waterproof jacket and/or fleece within arm’s reach. Place small items for daily use (sunblock, map, glasses, etc.) in the pockets. The water bladder will be placed in the compartment provided along the back, and the water bottle in the outer flask holder pockets provided for this purpose.
Laboratory tested
We carry out several laboratory tests to validate the bag's components: fabric, buckles, straps, foam, zippers. For example, for a fabric, we test the resistance to abrasion and tearing, colorfastness when exposed to UV light and washing, and waterproofing. We also conduct tests to check the resistance of assembly using a dummy that reproduces the movements of a hiker to replicate several years of wear and tear on the bag.
10-year guarantee
Our Quechua hiking backpacks are guaranteed for 10 years. Our commitment? To provide long-lasting products that you can use for all your hikes and strolls. Because the products we love the most are those that have shared great adventures with us and will continue to do so! The guarantee covers any backpack faults, except those caused by normal wear and tear and improper use.
Product testing
It’s in France, at the foot of Mont Blanc, that our design team conceives, creates, and designs the Quechua products. We test them in the field with other hikers to make sure that they are comfortable and durable. Brittany, Corsica, Reunion Island, etc. We go to as many trails as possible, in all weather conditions. Great conditions for discussion, which is precious to gain your feedback and plan ahead for new products!

Store your backpack in a dry place.
