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 20L rain cover", which can be viewed on our website, item 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 external side water bottle pockets, whereby its total capacity increases to 17L.

Developed thanks to your feedback, tested with hikers

This bag was designed thanks to all the customer feedback and hikers' observations.Indeed, the idea is to offer a multi-purpose backpack that you can use during your walks, hikes and also during all your everyday journeys.This bag offers you two different and comfortable carrying modes, i.e. on the back or in the hand, thanks to its two large ergonomic handles.

How to adjust your backpack?

1 - Loosen the shoulder straps2 - Put the loaded bag on your back, and make sure it is well balanced3 - Tighten the shoulder straps4 - Walk a few metres and lightly swing the bag on your back5 - Adjust the straps one last time

How to fill your backpack?

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 (sun cream, map, glasses, etc.) in the pockets.The water bottle will be put in one of the outside pockets provided for this purpose or inside in the main compartment.

Tested for optimal durability

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

Our motivation? To offer you a comfortable and accessorised bag to make the most of your hikes. Its 11 pockets will guarantee you a good organization of your things for your daily life
