How can you describe how comfortable this bag is?

A storage paradise: 
- 1 large compartment 
- 2 pockets on the belt
- 1 front zipped pocket
- 1 front pocket for jacket or fleece
- 2 side pockets for a water bottle
- 1 water pouch compartment
- Pole holder attachments       
- 1 hat with 2 pockets (one interior/one exterior/key attachment)

What about storage?

Breathe, your back stays dry! Our new system creates an air space between you and the bag. The stretch mesh back on the frame combats the “wet back” effect, even when exercising. And the cherry on the top: adjust the height of the back for tailor-made comfort.

Is the backpack’s back breathable?

The dimensions of this backpack are: 62 cm x 30 cm x 31 cm (24.4 in x 11.8 in x 12.2 in)

Dimensions

This hiking backpack is water-repellent, but not waterproof. A light rain runs off. If it rains for longer, there’s the risk of water seeping through. To protect your belongings, opt for our 20-40 L rain cover.

Is this backpack waterproof?

Maintenance is the key to longevity! Wash with warm soapy water and brush the sweat zones gently. Rinse generously, then let it take a nap in the shade, away from UV rays and greedy radiators. Its water-repellency will thank you! Between two excursions, store in a dry place.

Pants with 2 different components:

- a durable fabric (207 g/m²) on the areas that need protection from abrasion (seat, bottom of the leg at the front). This fabric is also stretchy for freedom of movement. It has been treated for water repellency.

- a lightweight, breathable fabric (150 g/m²) on the rest of the pants.

Dual-component structure

These pants have water-repellent zones (lower front of the leg and the seat) that prevent water from seeping through. This product is water-repellent, not waterproof.
The water-repellent areas slow down the rate at which water and moisture is absorbed, but they will not keep you dry in steady rain. To restore the water-repellent property, tumble dry on low heat for 10 minutes. Alternatively, we recommend you wear waterproof rain pants (product number 8504646).

Water-repellent properties

2 zippered hand pockets near the bottom
1 zippered pocket at the right thigh 
1 pocket with a flap at the left thigh and 1 phone compartment
Comes with a belt.

Accessories

The hand pockets are intentionally designed to close downward.
The zipper does not cause irritation when you tighten your backpack’s waist belt, and your belongings stay safe in your pockets.

Straight cut and stretch fabric in the right areas guarantee optimal comfort on the move.

On a scale of 1 to 5, this sports bra was rated a 3 for support. It is suitable for all medium-impact sports.
The MT 500 Hiking Bra reduces chest bounce by 29.8%. 
All our products are validated in our laboratories using our bust support test (measures the reduction in bust movement). Sports bras are evaluated and classified from 1 (low support) to 5 (high support).

How is the bra’s support measured? (Level 3 on a scale from 1 to 5)

This merino wool bra is available in the following sizes: XS, S, M, L, and XL.
It measures on the smaller side, so if you are deciding between two sizes, we recommend choosing the next size up. For help choosing the correct size, click on “Size guide” (top right of the page).

How to choose the right size

You wear your hiking and sports bra for several hours a day. This bra should therefore offer overall support rather than compression support. This provides good chest protection while offering freedom of movement.
We focused on designing adequate bust support without adding tension to the neck muscles (trapezoids).

What type of support does my merino wool bra offer?

We used an innovative process to design the removable pads. 
The pads are made using an equal mix of scraps from the bra manufacture and polyester fibre.

Eco-designed padding

We recommend machine washing your MT 500 Hiking Bra at 30°C on a normal cycle using liquid detergent.

Dry flat. Never tumble dry.

Wool fibres can store a lot of air and let water vapour escape, making wool an excellent choice for moisture management and thermal regulation. Wool’s ability to store and release moisture make it an insulating, comfortable material for hiking socks.

The properties of wool

The merino wool, from Spain, has been a carefully selected breed for generations because of its wool. It provides a softer fibre than traditional wool. After shearing, the wool is cleaned to remove impurities, then carded, spun, and finally used for knitting or weaving.

What is merino wool?

Merino wool offers an unbeatable experience: soft, lightweight, and breathable. Thanks to its fine fibres, it provides natural thermal regulation. It keeps your feet warm in cool weather and cool in warm weather.

What are the benefits of merino wool?

To stay warm when hiking in the winter, we recommend: 
Warmth: wear warm socks (ideally with a good percentage of wool). 
Breathability: choose socks based on the intensity of the hike and, to minimize moisture, make sure they’re breathable.
Boot height: the height of your socks should correspond to the height of the boot—for more protection, choose higher socks.

How do I choose the right footwear for hiking in the snow?

These socks come in packs of 2 pairs of matching socks.

Pack of 2 pairs

The stretchy fabric means these socks conform to your feet and stay firmly in place. Given that the length, width and volume of our feet is always different, we advise trying on your socks in store before purchase, and testing them before going on a long hike.

moisture management

Sock Height

We selected a technical yarn with a specific coating (PTFE) at the heel and toe to reduce friction and decrease the risk of blisters. These socks cannot guarantee 100% protection from blisters. Blisters usually form when your skin is weakened by friction from socks, shoes, or foreign objects like stones or sand. Dampness also plays an important role, as moisture weakens skin.

Reducing the risk of chafing

We offer 3 lengths of hiking socks. Short/low: go slightly above the shoes but under the ankles. Medium/mid: protect your ankles, stopping just above them. These 2 lengths are the right size for low-cut shoes. High: perfect for high-top hiking boots, as they stop just below the calf.

Choosing the right sock height

Our socks come in 4 sizes, from women’s size 5 to men’s size 15. The stretchy fabric helps the socks mould to your feet and stay in place. Feet come in all shapes and sizes: that’s why it’s important to try on your socks before going hiking.

Our hiking socks are guaranteed for two years.
