Super backpack. Comfortable ergonomic design. Lots of room in the pack and easy to access things in the pockets in front. Loved the design.
Used this pack on a recent 20KM day hike, the pack is very comfortable and has a good amount of adjustability to fit your body. The trampoline back provided good ventilation, my back was still sweaty, but it was able to evaporate rather than build up like a normal backpack. The angled water bottle pocket was good, fit a nalgene perfectly and was easy to reach around to take out/reinsert without taking the pack off. My only suggestion for improvements would be some stretch mesh pockets on the front of the straps for a mobile phone or small bottle. Putting my phone in the hip pocket is a pain if using it to refer to OS maps.
I chose this model for day hiking and I am satisfied with it. Thanks to its shape, it remains clear of the back, which allows for good ventilation.
pleasant, pretty color, good support
Very good bag, no more sweating on the back with the mesh and air gap!
The backpack proved useful on both a 1-day and 2-day hike. I recommend it!
Very good value for money
Very comfortable to wear
very good product
Product corresponding to what I was looking for but slightly too heavy otherwise excellent backpack.
Unbeatable value for money!
Good bag, relieves my shoulders well and I sweat much less with it. I highly recommend it for the price too...
Moderately comfortable straps that "squeak" when you walk, so quite annoying for day hikes! and which don't fit well (they press on the collarbone) => I had the same problem with a friend who had the same bag as me during this week-long hike. The interior volume of the bag is not ergonomic, you really can't put much in it! I don't recommend this bag!
I liked it and I recommend it
Fairly lightweight backpack. Good capacity.
