NH100, Hiking 30 L Backpack

Our teams work on finding innovative processes that reduce the use or pollution of water during manufacturing. The “dope dyeing” technique (mass pigmentation) saves up to 60% water and significantly reduces CO² emissions. This also reduces color fading over time. From 2019, we started this process with the colors black (Ref: 8550766) and khaki (Ref: 8583162), while efforts to master this technique on other colors continue.

For the interior of this backpack, we have decided to use a "greige" component, i.e. without additional dyeing, which gives it a light appearance. Despite everything, the component retains all of its properties, including its durability. This also makes it easier to see the contents of the bag thanks to this process that can also deliver a big reduction in the carbon footprint.

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.

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

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 flask can be placed in the side pockets designed for this purpose.

We carry out several laboratory tests to validate the bag's components: fabric, buckles, straps, foam, zippers. For example, for a fabric, we test resistance to abrasion and tearing, colorfastness when subject to UV light and washing, and waterproofing. We also conduct tests to check the resistance of assemblies using a mannequin that reproduces the movements of a hiker to replicate several years of wear and tear on the bag.

Based on all your feedback, we have improved the design of our NH100 30-liter backpack. In this new model, we have added a compartment in the main pocket as well as a zipped pocket. We also changed the opening to make the contents of your backpack more accessible.
