Product Customer Reviews
Good capacity, comfortable straps
Backpack comfortable to wear. Elegant adjustment. Side pockets for water and snacks are a plus. The same goes for additional pockets on the strap. I have nothing to complain about. I recommend.
Alright
The backpack suits me perfectly! I bought it for the Camino and it exceeded all expectations. If it is not overloaded, it even meets the Easy jet requirements for hand luggage (tested at check-in).
Great backpack. I recommend it!
This bag is very well made with lots of storage. Perhaps the location for the water pocket should be rethought because there is a small pocket just above it. Otherwise, nothing to complain about, everything is well thought out and the bag is sturdy.
I gave this hiking bag to someone who had never owned one. And what a surprise to see how light and comfortable it was to carry. Storage-wise, it's great, and there's also the backpack's little rain cover. Value for money, it's excellent.
The bag came flawless and did well on my week long trip. It seems to be decent quality. I completed 8 hours of hiking with zero issues. im 5'6 175lbs male and went for the larger size. it fits perfectly (to my knowledge lol). I love the green color as well. inside I was able to fit two coats, a pair of pants, 3 liters of water, a few pairs of shorts and several t-shirts along with socks and underwear in the main compartment. I recommend this to someone on a budget looking for their first hiking bag.
The package itself is a bit too heavy
good value for money and very comfortable
Very practical and the volume is correct for a small size. The only small damage is that the base plate cannot be removed.
the backpack is extremely comfortable, adjustable, adjustable and can rest most of the weight on the hips, lots of storage compartments and zipped pockets, but what is really great is the ability to unzip the backpack from the bottom and take things out from the bottom of the backpack, in one word, great.
Used as a travel backpack for my 9-year-old, it was perfect! Comfortable, good capacity and good durability. The front opening is very practical for accessing what is at the bottom of the bag. Very good support too.
Very comfortable. The side pockets allow you to carry and remove bottles without removing your backpack. The front zipper is very useful for removing items from the bottom of the backpack.
What I like most about it are the elastic pockets on the hip belt. You can easily put a lot of things in them and everything is at hand. I haven't had a chance to test the breathability yet - I will evaluate it in the summer.

What differences are there with the old mh500 bag?
The back of this new bag has been fully reworked for greater comfort: a tight net with frame gives you more space between your back and the bag to reduce the damp back effect. This net used for the back, called mesh, is also softer than previously. What's more, this new model comes in 2 sizes for small and large sizes. The 2 hip pockets are more spacious and stretchy and access to flask on the sides is easier.
Why 2 sizes?
During several field test sessions with hikers of different sizes, we noticed that between 20 and 40 litres, the difference in comfort was mainly linked to the back height of the bag: someone with a small frame feels better with a bag that doesn't have a very big back, and someone with a big frame with a larger back. We therefore offer all our models in 2 sizes to meet these requirements.
Hydration
This bag can hold 1 litre, 2 litre or 3 litre pockets. However, although the pocket is voluminous, it will take up place that could be used for storing other belongings.The side pockets are designed for flasks of maximum 1 litre.
Why are our rain covers orange?
This is a deliberate choice as we believe it's important to stay visible in the mountains, even in fog, in case of any problem. This orange colour has the advantage of being visible from a helicopter. It's also a visible colour on the road if you use your bag when cycling.
Hand luggage
When you are travelling by plane, the authorised hand luggage size is 55x35x25cm3 maximum (warning, this can vary depending on the airline). This bag can be used as hand luggage, so long as you don't load the top too much.
How to pack my backpack?
AT THE BOTTOM of the bag, pack your sleeping material, and heavy material nearer the back. Slide your water pocket into the compartment.AT THE TOP of the bag, store your waterproof jacket and fleece within arm’s reach. In the pockets, you can put your sun cream, maps, cap and sunglasses. Cereal bars or your mobile phone can be stored in the belt pockets for quick access. The straps under the bag can also be used to attach a compact tent.
How do i adjust my backpack?
1 - Loosen all the straps (straps, hip belt, load adjuster straps). 2 - Put the backpack on. 3 - As this bag is small in volume, put the belt around the waist and tighten it. 4 -Tighten the shoulder straps. 5 - Adjust the load adjuster straps as needed.
