Very practical

Excellent suitcase. It is a very suitable size for those who do not want to carry large backpacks. I bought it for a 6 year old child as a school backpack and it is very ergonomic.

Excellent backpack

I am very satisfied with the purchase!

For those bags that…

For these bags which are very often carried in the city, it is necessary to think about the security aspect (they must not be able to be opened easily without the user's knowledge, particularly in public transport, groups of people ...)

Multifunctional bag with high CP

Since I have to carry my computer out every day, I have been looking for a bag that can help relieve pressure on my shoulders and back. This Decathlon model fits my needs very well (it has a chest buckle, pressure-relieving straps, multiple compartments, can be placed on the suitcase, etc. ) and the price is also very affordable. I chose the all-black one that is stain-resistant. I will repurchase it if I have the opportunity!

Bag

For me, the best backpack. There are a lot of pockets and space in the backpack as well. I had another backpack with the same contents before. I put everything in yours and it's not difficult. How is this possible? I don't know, but I'm excited 👍

Your comfort above all

To take full advantage of a hike, we devote particular attention to designing comfortable products.

We have reduced our environmental impact on this product

We have improved this product with an eco-design approach. To reduce our environmental impact, we use a mass pigmentation process that involves adding the colour pigments when the yarn itself is produced (dark grey colour, product reference: 8649496).

Waterproofing

The components of the bag are water-repellent so that you can temporarily continue walking/hiking in light rain. Caution: this backpack is not watertight/waterproof and it does not have a rain cover. If you want to continue walking/hiking in the rain and protect your belongings, we recommend the following model: ”10 to 20 L rain cover”, which can be viewed on our website, product reference: 8772113.

How is volume measured?

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 litres.The capacity of the main volume of this bag is 16L. We also measured the volume with the 2 exterior side water bottle pockets, whereby its total capacity increases to 17L

Tested for optimum durability and strength

To guarantee the durability of the bag, laboratory tests are conducted on the components and assemblies to replicate the ageing of the backpack.For example, for a fabric, we test the resistance to abrasion and tearing, the colour fastness when exposed to UV light and washing, and the waterproofing. We use these tests to guarantee the bags for a period of 10 years from the date of purchase on the receipt.

How to adjust your backpack?

1 - Loosen all straps, shoulder straps and chest belt2 - Put on the bag3 - Buckle the chest belt, adjust its height and width4 - Tighten the shoulder straps (from top to bottom)5 - Adjust to fitYou’re all set!

How to fill your backpack?

Place the heavy items, e.g. laptop, picnic, etc., in the bottom and in the spaces provided. Pack your clothes around these items. Put the small belongings that you will use during the day (sun cream, map, sunglasses, etc.) in the pockets. Put the water bottle(s) in the outer pockets on the sides that are made for this purpose.

Product testing

It’s in France, at the foot of Mont Blanc, that our design team conceives, designs and creates Quechua products. We test them in the field with other hikers to make sure that they are comfortable and durable. This backpack has been tested and improved by hikers in different climatic conditions and different environments.
