Good product
Used for multipitch climbing and hiking daypack. Great for the climbing and packable day sack. Removable back foam would be nice to make an even more packable option. Also used as extra day pack for business trip as fitted nicely inside hand luggage pack. Did rub on waist at base of pack when used for 3 days on the trot as padding limited but I guess there has be some downside to such a lightweight pack.
I have it for over 3 years and today I collected the second one. Mainly it is used on my motorcycle rides, for commutes on the bike and off the bike and anytime I need to take something with me that fits. I was carrying many different items, water bladder including. It is indeed very comfortable with many ways you can set it up to fit your body like a glove. It super useful and I love it, but it has its own issues, hence only 4 stars. First: annoying thing is you cannot put it up upright on its bottom. It is angled and even if full, it won't stay up, it always falls. Even if you put it against the wall and if floor is smooth, it will slide and fall. Second: the rubber bands, those to hold excess of stipes nicely tacked together. They do the great job but .... only for a very short time. The rubber must be of pretty poor quality, as all of them simply deteriorated, even if they were not moved, within first few months of use. I found out today, it has 5 years warranty, so I guess if I kept the bloody receipt ... Third: it is not waterproof and likely because of that, my first one was supplied with a rain cover. The one I got today, has none of that. The rest is perfect and the reason I had to replace it, is a wear & tear but hey, 3.5 years of daily use?!?! It is a very good one.
Perfect for day hikes or mountain huts. I use it for work; the top pocket allows you to slip your laptop inside.
Backpack of good quality, excellent workmanship. Durable and roomy
Used for a 23km ride, loaded weight about 5kg, no discomfort, almost not felt
Good bag, especially considering its price and capacity. Be aware of several flaws: the zipper comes undone and breaks at the corners, and the interior lining is crumbling. The bottom of the bag is a bit flimsy. I had to replace the bag after a year and four months, as Decathlon didn't want to take back the old one. Otherwise, it has everything a climber/mountaineer needs for a day (or two if you like to travel ultralight).
Optimal
Excellent backpack with large capacity compared to the 22 litres indicated.
A small, nice backpack for one-day trips, a big plus for compatibility with a water bottle
I like this model, I'm already wearing the second one
It has its details, they have improved things compared to other backpacks, for the price they have they are super good if you are looking for price-quality.
Perfect! Very practical and light!
very good for this price range very good for the mountains but I also use it often to go to university and I find it very good
