About this item:
- This backpack is made for multiple days hiking or trekking in autonomy. You can carry everything you need to camp, drink and eat on your back with comfort.
- The MT500 AIR only weighs 3.8 lbs and can contain a total volume of 55 liters which we recommend for a trip over 2 weeks long. The top of the bag is adjustable and can hold an extra 10 liters of volume.
- This backpack has plenty of features if you are looking for a technical option at a fair price: AIR concept back ventilation, rain cover, water bottle holder, hiking poles holder, 8 pockets and a compartment for a water bladder for easy hydration.
- The AIR concept: in order for your back to dry faster, we added a mesh on top of a ventilated structure. Ideal for long and sweaty day hikes from one camp to another !
- This is a women's backpack: This bag has been conceived for a feminine morphology (torso and hips). We recommend to stick to your gender when you choose a bag for comfort purposes when carrying your it on your back.
- 10-year warranty: the fabric of the bag is ultra resistant and Decathlon is proud to offer this warranty for any defect that could appear in the next 10 years.

Jsem maximálně spokojena. Jsem drobnější postavy takže mi nejlépe vyhovuje nastavitelnost zad, ale především musím ohodnotit velké množství kapes a jejich umístění. Také mě velmi mile překvapilo zvětšení batohu v horní části a pevnost popruhů na upevnění stanu. Omyvatelnost skvrn z batohu je jednoduchá a zatím šlo všechno krásně dolů.
super batoh, dostatečně velký na skautský tábor
Enough pockets for all you need to bring. Very comfortable to carry (even fully packed) I Would definitely recommend!
Sind das erste Mal wandern gegangen inkl Zeltübernachtung über mehrer Tage. 1A Verarbeitung, tolle Verstellmöglichkeiten. Bin sehr zufrieden
Nachdem ich viele Rucksäcke ausprobiert habe fiel die Entscheidung für diesen. Nach etwas mehr als 100 km mit Rucksack kann ich folgendes Fazit geben: Der Rucksack ist ziemlich gut durchdacht, er lässt sich einfach und gut bepacken. Erst die Trinkblase hinein, dann der Rest. Da wir den Rest mit Packsäcken vorgepackt haben ist das dann mit wenigen Handgriffen im Rucksack verstaut und festgezurrt. Das Volumen ist super und reicht - zumindest im Sommer - durchaus für mehrtägige Touren aus (wobei wir Eltern auch das Gepäck der Tochter mit schultern). Ich persönlich liebe die kleine Einschubtasche über dem Hüftgurt, in der ich meinen Loop verstaut habe. So komme ich jederzeit an den Loop ohne stehen bleiben zu müssen. Die Regenhülle nervt etwas im Bodenfach. Ich habe sie schlussendlich entnommen weil kaum Regen zu erwarten war. Würde sie aber gerne anderweitig verstauen wenn wir sie doch mal benötigen. Hier wäre ein Fach unter dem Boden sicher besser, weil die Hülle dort nicht im Weg wäre. Aber das ist jammern auf hohem Niveau. ;) Der Tragekomfort ist sehr hoch, der Rücken lässt sich optimal stufenlos auf die eigene Körpergröße anpassen und sogar im Laufen kann der Rücken mit einem Handgriff nachjustiert werden. Da ich recht groß bin gefällt mir das lange Rückenmaß des Rucksacks ganz besonders. Das Deckelfach bietet viel Platz für Wertsachen oder Pässe. Hier ist das einzige Manko, dass es kein Band gibt an dem der Schlüssel fixiert werden kann. Hier könnte Decathlon noch überarbeiten. Die Hüftflossen sind jeweils mit Taschen ausgestattet, die groß genug sind für die heute üblichen Handys. Auch eine kleine Sonnencreme und das Portemonnaie finden hier locker Platz. Außerdem gibt es Seitenfächer mit Reißverschluss, die Platz bieten für zb Wanderkarten. Für mich ist der Rucksack perfekt aufgeteilt. Ein Schlüsselband konnte ich selber nachrüsten. Der Langzeittest steht noch aus, aber der Rucksack macht durchaus den Eindruck eines langlebigen Begleiters.

Additional Product Information
Composition
Main fabric: 100.0% Polyamide ; Lining: 100.0% Polyester ; Yoke: 100.0% Polyamide ; Webbing: 100.0% Polypropylene ; Bag cover: 100.0% Polyester ; Coating: 100.0% Polyurethane
Dimensions
Height : 27.5”Width: 13.8”Depth: 13.8”
Capacity
The bag has a 55 L volume with an extra 10 L extension. The volume of each backpack is measured using a standardised method. we use small balls to fill the main compartment as well as each pocket. The balls are then emptied into a graduated container in order to determine the equivalent volume in litres, with a margin of error of just a few %.
Weight
3.8 lbs everything included. The rain cover can be removed and weighs 3.5 oz.
Air design
As with the MT900 UL line, the MT500 AIR range has a ventilated back structure with mesh fabric (net fabric) that helps the back to breathe and dries quickly. Rigidity is guaranteed by a reinforced frame. The back is adjustable with a release strap that’s easy and quick to use.
Materials
Polyamide main fabric 210D RS (Ripstop = increased resistance to tears), reinforced bag base (420Dx330D RS)
Recommended carry weight
According to the project for which this backpack was designed, we recommend you don’t load it above 33 lbs. Then you can benefit from all its features. Moreover, it’s not recommended to carry a load greater than 20-25% of your own weight and put too much pressure on your back.
How to pack a backpack?
Put your bedding at the bottom. Put heavy gear (tent, camp stove, food) near your back. Store your clothing around it. A groundsheet or tent can be placed under the flap or under the bag if there isn't room inside. Keep your waterproof jacket and fleece to hand. Place small items for daily use (sun cream, map, glasses etc.) in the pockets. The water bladder can be placed in the compartment provided down the back.
How to use the multi-use straps?
The new range of MT500 AIR and MT900 UL bags has two straps with open aluminium buckles (on the lower part of the bag). These straps let you hook on a tent or mattress under the bag or on the barrel. If not in use, these straps can be stored (by pushing them inside) in the hidden pocket intended for this. The can also be detached and used elsewhere with the lark's head knot buckle.
Female body shape
Our women's models are adapted to the female shape (chest and hips). The shoulder straps are more open and the waist fitted higher for greater comfort and freedom of movement.
Product testing
All our backpacks undergo field tests by users who are representative of our target market under similar conditions to those you will encounter. To test, assess and validate products, our mission test connects the product manager responsible for the product design with individuals independent to DECATHLON. This backpack was tested by trekkers for 5 weeks in the Canary Islands, the Pyrenees and the Mont Blanc mountain range.
Storage instructions
Store your bag in a dry, ventilated place away from direct light.
