Capacity

Extendible volume:
50 L + extra 10 L thanks to the adjustable bag top.
The volume of each backpack is measured using a standardized method: the main compartment and each pocket are filled with little balls. The balls are then emptied into a graduated container to determine the equivalent volume in litres, with a margin of error of just a few percentage points.

2 kg
The empty weight shown is our reference sample.
There may be slight variations.

How to pack a backpack

Store your bedding on the bottom. Carry heavy gear (tent, stove, food, etc.) close to your back. Pack your clothes around these items. The groundsheet can be placed under the flap; the tent can be stored under the bag if it doesn’t fit inside. Keep your waterproof jacket and fleece close at hand. Spread out small everyday items (sunscreen, map, sunglasses, etc.) in the pockets. Hydration packs (water bladder) should be placed in the special back pocket.

Why do our rain covers come in neutral tones when some trekkers want them brightly coloured?

Our trekking backpack covers come in neutral grey because it uses less dye.
This bag is made of Biton: this process lowers our CO2 impact, dye consumption and water pollution compared to coloured models. These small measures demonstrate Forclaz’s commitment to reducing the environmental impact of its products.

10-year warranty

These backpacks have been put through aging tests. The components, seams, and finished product were tested. Forclaz guarantees these bags will last 10 years from the date of purchase.

Complementary accessories

Compatible with two 7 L half-moon storage bags.

The backpack is built to give unbelievable balanced support. Very comfortable when you carry it for less than 7 hours. After that I started to feel a numbness in my left hand. Otherwise A great product for a very comfortable trek.

Really handy, comfortable and easily accessible
