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 masculine morphology (torso and hips). We recommend to consider the users physical morphology when you choose a bag for comfort purposes when carrying 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.

Perfect bag ! Used for coast to coast would highly recommend
Great rucksack for backpacking and camping
great bag for Duke of ed expedition
Lots of capacity, comfortable
Good weight, capacity and resistance ratio. Correct price. Colors a little old-fashioned….On the other hand, I always took Decathlon backpacks for my treks and there I am really disappointed by the rigid frame that is on the belt and which hurt me all week. I had big bruises on my hips… I had to put my fleece around my waist to continue hiking. I will not use it again and I advise women not to buy it. Yet everything else was perfect.
Perfect price-quality ratio!
Good
Little space for clothes, not very practical, very disappointed
excellent value for money
This backpack is very practical with lots of pockets and a central opening! Very comfortable to wear!
Very functional and lightweight
Very good and light when empty.
A good backpack!
Practical and corresponds to the desired volume
Lightweight, ventilated, pockets and elastic bands everywhere. A little hook so you don't lose your keys... The suitcase opening is super practical. The separate pocket underneath is practical. A small downside is that the suitcase opening can open easily. They would need a clip rather than zippers. The pockets on the abdominal strap, the water bottle holder are good if closed well, I lost a bottle. Practical with the water bag.

Recommended carry weight
According to the project for which this backpack was designed, we recommend you don’t load it above 15 kg. 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.
