Women's Mountain Backpacking Pack 50 + 10L Trek 900

Backpack technical tests.

We conduct lab tests to validate the following: fabric, buckles, straps, foam, and zippers. For example, for fabric: resistance to abrasion and tearing, colour fastness in UV light and after washing, waterproofing, etc. Then the finished product undergoes an accelerated test replicating the stresses on the bag over several years to test the strength of the assemblies: We fill it with weights and place it on a dummy that reproduces thousands of fast walking movements.

10-year technical partnership warranty

The Strenfit component brand, Quechua's partner for researching and testing its components and assemblies, conducted tests simulating backpack ageing. These tests were conducted on the components, the seams and the finished product. The results of the tests are used by Quechua and Strenfit to guarantee the tested bags for 10 years from the purchase date on the cash register receipt.

How do you pack a backpack?

Put your bedding at the bottom. Carry heavy gear (tent, stove, food) closest to your back. Pack your clothes around these items. The groundsheet should be placed under the flap and the tent beneath the pack if there is no space inside. Keep a rainproof jacket and fleece close at hand. Place small items that are needed during the day (sunscreen, map, glasses, etc.) in the pockets. If carrying a hydration pack (water bladder), this should be placed in its special pocket along the back.

How is backpack volume measured?

The volume of each backpack is measured using a standardized method: we fill the main compartment as well as each pocket with little balls. We then empty the balls into a graduated container to measure the equivalent volume in Liters within a few percentage points.
The unloaded weight provided is that of our reference sample. There may be slight variations.

A rating to compare the environmental impact of the products

The product's environmental impact is calculated over its entire life cycle using various indicators. An overall score from A to E is given to help you easily identify the most eco-friendly products by comparing them with products of the same type (T-shirts, pants, backpacks, etc.)

Environmental impact

Our bags have been created with a view to reducing their environmental impact:
a dye using less water has been used for the lining.

Product Testing

All our backpacks are tested in the field by users who represent the target market under the same conditions as you would encounter in use. In particular, our "Mission Tests" bring together the product manager with people who are not affiliated with QUECHUA to test, improve, and validate our products.\nThis specific model was approved by hikers touring Mont Blanc in June 2017.
