- 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 main bag’s volume capacity is 23 L. We have measured the volume with the 2 water bottle outer side pockets, its total capacity reaches 25 L.
- Your comfort above allTo fully enjoy your hikes, we put comfort at the heart of our product design. The back, shoulder straps & handle are comfortable because of their thickness and construction composed of different types of foam padding covered with a 3D mesh to improve ventilation & drying. The chest strap has cushioning, & its height and width is adjustable. - Back: 5 pads made from 2 types of foam (PE - PU) 15 mm thick, - Shoulder straps made from 2 types of foam (EVA - PU) 8-13 mm thick.

- WATERPROOFINGThe 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: “20 to 40 L rain cover”, which can be viewed on our website, item reference 8734213.
- Outer dimensionsHeight : 46 cm | Width: 28 cm | Thickness: 22cm. This bag can be used as cabin baggage for a plane trip as its dimensions meet airline (IATA) requirements. We recommend that you contact your airline for details of the size and weight restrictions on cabin baggage.
- Tested for optimal durabilityTo ensure the bag is strong enough, we conduct laboratory tests on the components and seams, which replicate the long-term wear and tear that the backpack will endure. 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?- Loosen all the straps, shoulder, stomach and chest, - Put the bag on, - Buckle the chest strap, adjust the height and width, - Tighten the shoulder straps (top to bottom), - Adjust as needed. It’s adjusted!

Pack your clothes around these items; - Place small items for daily use (phone, sun cream, map, glasses, keys, wallet, etc.) in the pockets ; - Water bottle(s) will go in the outer side pockets intended for this purpose.
