Used this pack on a recent 20KM day hike, the pack is very comfortable and has a good amount of adjustability to fit your body. The trampoline back provided good ventilation, my back was still sweaty, but it was able to evaporate rather than build up like a normal backpack. The angled water bottle pocket was good, fit a nalgene perfectly and was easy to reach around to take out/reinsert without taking the pack off. My only suggestion for improvements would be some stretch mesh pockets on the front of the straps for a mobile phone or small bottle. Putting my phone in the hip pocket is a pain if using it to refer to OS maps.
This bag is perfect for independent walking in warm weather. The deep and wide central tote: perfect and ideal for a rain jacket, a scarf, a sandwich, a book... Vertical side pocket: a 1.5 liter bottle fits perfectly. Sufficient belt pockets and elastic fabric. I only saw one flaw to correct for next time: the opening and position of the external "camera" pocket at the top of the bag. Be careful not to drop its contents when opening it. ..
Very satisfied.
I bought this bag for my day hikes, and it's great! Very comfortable. I'm 187cm tall, and it's made from materials that seem sturdy. It's very light and easy to fill. I've already hiked over fifty kilometers with it and I'm very happy with it! The price-quality ratio is truly unbeatable, thank you Decathlon!! On the downside, the hose for the water bladder goes through the top of the bag, rather than the side as usual, and also in front of the inside pocket, which makes it less accessible. The rain cover is missing; you have to buy it separately. And there's no storage space for it, which is a shame! A pocket at the bottom of the bag would be welcome for that. Otherwise, a really great item!
The backpack is big for 25l, the green color is very beautiful, it is well compartmentalized but I didn't understand why the side pockets are not equal in size. Not everyone carries a water bag, some want water bottles in the side pockets. If in one side pocket you can put a 1l bottle, in the other you can only 0.5l...so the weight is not distributed evenly. The mesh on the back is made of a strange synthetic material. I'm sorry, I returned it even though it is a visually beautiful backpack.
Highly recommended
Lightweight, practical and functional, perfectly suited to my use.
purchase in 10th place, very spacious backpack, I am positively surprised by the ventilation and adjustment thanks to which they perfectly fit the figure.
