How does our new 45L backpack really perform out in the field?
We put it to the test during a 3-day hiking and camping trip — with steep trails, chilly nights, and unpredictable weather.
So, what's the verdict? Here’s our full feedback!
First Impressions
Right out of the box, the backpack makes a great impression:
-
Sleek, modern design
-
Sturdy yet lightweight materials
-
Comfortable carrying system with a ventilated back panel and well-padded shoulder straps
You can tell it's been designed for lightweight trekking without compromising on durability.
In Real Conditions
After three days of intense use, here’s what stood out:
Strengths:
-
Perfect capacity for a 2- to 4-day trek — you can pack everything you need without feeling overloaded.
-
Super practical organization with multiple easy-access pockets so you don’t have to unpack everything to find what you need.
-
Long-lasting comfort thanks to excellent weight distribution.
-
Weather resistance: it easily handles light rain, and a built-in rain cover protects it during heavy downpours.
Bonus:
The expandable front pocket is perfect for quickly stashing a jacket or grabbing a snack on the go!
Any Downsides?
Honestly, not much to complain about, but to be picky:
-
Ultra-lightweight enthusiasts might find it a bit more rugged than absolutely necessary for extreme fast-hiking.
-
A full front-opening version could make access to gear even quicker.
Our 45L backpack is the perfect companion for multi-day hikes, lightweight treks, and weekend camping adventures.
It brilliantly combines comfort, practicality, and toughness.
