Lightweight but robust multifunctional comfortable trekking backpack

This is my first real hiking backpack! I load it between 7 and 8.5kg without water. Pros: Nice. Light. Large capacity. Easy and convenient adjustable carrying height. Well-designed frame, effective anti-perspiration net. (We will always sweat but the air circulates). Efficient and wide ventral tightening, good support but it lacks padding and therefore comfort on long outings! Convenient belt pockets. Modular, possibility of gaining 100gr by removing the upper pocket, that's what I did. The -: All the straps are way too long, I shortened them. Despite several different settings, in just two days of hiking the main carrying straps end up irritating me around the collarbones, I'm rather thin and bony but this is very unpleasant when carrying! This happens on every one of my mountain hikes. Is this the price to pay for having a light bag??? These straps should have much better padding even if it means taking on a little weight!!! The side pockets are not practical, I'm fine with them but it's easy to lose what's inside, their lacing system is not reliable and not practical... The bag does not fit straight once placed on the ground... In my opinion, the load should not exceed 10kg, including the bag, otherwise you will experience great discomfort! So I made the choice to carry my 1.5l of water in a banana bag so as not to weigh down the bag. I do not know if I will recommend the purchase of this bag, despite its many faults it suits me but there must be much better among the competition! Definitely more expensive too...

After 3 days of hiking, a side pocket was no longer usable. The rope came out, and I was unable to find a possible repair

The other day, I went to Mt. Kisokomagatake for the first time in my life. Thanks to this rucksack, I was able to climb comfortably! It's light and doesn't feel too heavy for its capacity, and it's very easy to use because you can adjust the best position according to your physique! The structure makes it easy to access the luggage compartment, so it was very helpful when cleaning up. The side can hold three 500ml plastic bottles, making it easy to take.

Hello, I bought this bag on July 6, 2022, since then I made two big ones in the summer of 2022 and a first one at the end of July 2023. During this hike, a crimping of the cable used to hold the side pockets broke! So I went to a Decathlon store to explain the problem. Unfortunately, the disastrous after-sales service! I find it abnormal, and even scandalous, that the only answer I got was: "The bag is over a year old, so it is no longer under warranty. Moreover, it is probably not repairable! " Already ATTENTION, the guarantee is noted 2 years on the site but it does not take into account this type of problem, which strongly resembles a manufacturing defect! Then, these are bags that are mainly used for big hikes, so it's mainly summer. The warranty is therefore only 2 months! So I find myself with a €130 bag that only served me for one summer, and which is good to throw away! I have to leave next weekend, so I have no choice but to buy a new one, which naturally won't be from Decathlon!

I'm a little stunned by the reception I just had for a return of this bag. I am not satisfied with the experience I had on the first hike with this bag. Very bulky bag, a hard point in the back despite all the adjustments tried, and a start of strap noise that is not very pleasant. The bag is new, with no signs of wear. I used it for 4 hours. I was told that it was not refundable but that he could take it back for 70€…. I still do not understand. I have a long list of purchases at decathlon, and I am refused this refund. In short, I am not very happy with this observation.

Small problem with the hooks to carry a tent under the bag. One of the two showed signs of weakness after only two days of hiking, it had to be straightened with a stone and then be very careful the following days...

Excellent hiking bag, light and very practical.

The bag is very functional with its full length zip and its accessible and generous side pockets. It is also very comfortable. On the other hand, after 3 weeks I have to face the facts, there seems to be a big design problem, and this has 2 levels: - the unbearable creaking of the frame in contact with the bag, all the more noticeable when descending. It may seem innocuous, but the more the time pinches, the less you support it... - the system of tightening the straps at the bottom of the bag which does not block anything (you can do the test by pulling on it,). Really reassuring if we have the tent fixed... If no technical solution can be provided for the squeaking, I will have to get it reimbursed and look elsewhere. And that's really a shame.

I am disappointed with this bag that I was offered. The positive points: _You can still put a lot of things in it _ The mesh and fabric seem resistant on the outside _ you can put a water bladder _ the side pockets (in a slightly mesh format) suit me The negative points _First of all, the surroundings of the bag hurt. There is no way to make the bag rest a little on the hips. _ inside, the mesh is so tight that it crumbles, and that without even using it _ good comfort that can be understood given the weight _ it makes noise (but I'm not as bothered as other comments. _ it lacks carabiner attachments or net/lace to trap things I went to do the TMB for 7 days with it. believe me it's money unfortunately thrown away … it's the first time that I grade an article so badly.

Bought because of its lightness to travel the GR10 between June and July. Here is my feedback after 970km and 5 weeks of use. Light and resistant, no tearing to deplore, the yellow straps with aluminum buckle and fastening with very practical lark's head knots. The side pockets are to be reserved for bulky objects as they are open on one side. They are solid and the elastic is adjustable. On the other hand the plastic hooks seem fragile to me and I almost lost one which miraculously remained at the bottom of the pocket. They accommodated my water pocket, which I prefer outside the bag, and a 1l water bottle. The tent can also be accommodated there if necessary. The central pocket is the only one that is closed on both sides, we put a lot of mess in it and served as a hair dryer. The central zipper is practical but seems to me to be a weak point in the long term. Not easy to reseal the full bag. the 10-year warranty is reassuring. On the comfort side, I had shoulder pain for the first few days, then the body adapted to the fineness of the padding of the straps (1.3 kg involves certain arbitrations) The waist belt is not tight enough because of the size of the pockets for my size (38) but I got used to it. On the other hand, I suffered from noise pollution which seems to me to come from the straps of the bag height adjustment. I even made audio recordings. It only got worse over the crossing and especially on the descent. No adjustment could overcome it. That's why I don't want to keep this bag and can't recommend it.

Hello, The bag is very light and pretty, lots of pockets but also lots of straps pulled in all directions, it's a bit complex. I really like the closure on the entire side of the bag which allows you to access its contents without having to take everything out. Now the big downside, I tested this bag only for a 1 day hike then I turned it over because the rounded metal frames at the bottom of the bag hit my lower back during the whole hike (despite the many adjustments I tried), the next day I still had pain. Maybe it's due to my morphology... In any case, test the bag well in store with weight to avoid this kind of problem. Mathis.
