The removable pouch adds an extra 6 L volume.

How to adjust your backpack?

Begin by adjusting the lumbar belt. The bag's weight should sit mainly on your hips.

Then tighten the shoulder straps to bring the bag's weight towards your back.

Attach and tighten the chest strap then tighten the smaller straps above the shoulders so that the back sits perfectly on your back.

In case of damage, repair your backpack

All the backpack buckles are available as spare parts (8797061).

The removable pouch is also available (8766039).

Protect your bag in the rain

The backpack has a rain cover to protect the contents of your bag when it rains.

This same cover will protect your bag in transit. By tightening the strap, you can completely pack your bag to protect it.

Reduced environmental impact thanks to the dyeing process

Textile dyeing requires a lot of water but also produces waste water from the dye baths. To reduce this environmental impact, we use a mass pigmentation process that involves adding the colour pigments when the yarn itself is produced.
