At 36L, this is perfect for a longer or even an overnight trip, and for a bag that looks straightforward, it seems to have a lot of the right bells and whistles. Its unisex single-sizing means it won't work for all bodies, but with adjustable shoulder straps, sternum and hip straps, it can work for a lot of bodies and provides a comfortable carry, taking the weight off your shoulders and onto your hips making light work of a heavy load. A breathable back panel and ergonomic design might not be as high-tech as other backpacks, but it seems to get the job done allowing air to circulate when you're hiking over hot days so you don't get too sweaty.
It's also -compatible for those days when you need to be sipping water regularly. The main compartment is roomy and we found it really easy to load up. If you're packing for an overnight backpacking trip, you'll appreciate the deep side pockets, zipped top pocket and additional front pocket for stashing small pieces of kit and overflow gear.
Most companies make you purchase a separately, but this pack comes with its own integrated rain cover that you can pull on in a jiffy if the heavens open. It's also got an integrated for safety. There's not a lot wrong with it, except for the fact that the pockets on the hip belt aren't quite big enough for most phones, which is what we'd usually use it for, and the addition of adjustable load hauling straps would help get an even better fit.
We'd like to see some recycled materials used in the nex.
