On the plus side, I appreciate the thick and wide straps that effectively distribute the weight and do not cause discomfort in the shoulders, even during prolonged use or with heavier loads. The back of the backpack is moderately stiff, with a thick layer of foam and an additional removable plastic stiffening plate. The whole thing is comfortable, though the stiffness of the insert could be greater. The strap shortening system raises some doubts – the rubber band serves to wrap up the excess length, but I happened to accidentally take it off when tightening the straps. Regardless of the solution (Velcro as in Helikon or an elastic band in this model), I still find insulating tape to be the most practical. Other positives include a solid handle, YKK zippers, a practical interior with dividers, drainage holes, and a chest strap – all made to a high standard. The backpack is spacious – a real 24 litres, and the seams are additionally reinforced. Overall, it gives the impression of being very sturdily made. Top marks for the manufacturer – my backpack was missing the stiffener, but after a short phone call they reacted quickly and within a day I had a new insert, a nice merino cap, and an upgraded hip belt. Great service!
EDC (Every Day Carry) backpack with a capacity of 24 litres. It is made of durable and abrasion-resistant 500D Cordura. The material has undergone IRR (Infrared Reflective Treatment), which prevents detection by residual light amplifiers (night vision devices).
The backpack consists of two compartments with a capacity of 15 and 9 litres, making it suitable for everyday use in the city as well as for tactical tasks.
The main compartment opens all the way to the bottom, making packing and organisation easy, and an additional foam-lined pocket protects sensitive items such as a laptop. Inside, there is a pocket for a hydration bladder and a large technical mesh pocket. The front compartment is equipped with an organiser consisting of several smaller and larger pockets. Compression straps on the sides allow you to compress the load and reduce its size.
On the front of the backpack there is a soft Velcro panel for attaching identification patches or morale patches, and a set of bungee cords for carrying additional equipment such as a jacket or rain cape. MOLLE side and bottom panels made of straps allow for easy attachment of accessories, while the use of durable YKK zippers secured with flaps ensures reliability in all conditions.
The carrying system includes wide, ergonomic shoulder straps filled with closed-cell foam and Cell Vent panels on the back for comfort even when carrying heavy equipment. The backpack also offers an optional adjustable foam hip strap that can be quickly attached and removed to suit the individual needs of the user.
All buckles are made of durable Acetal/Derlin, which is less susceptible to low temperatures.
The backpack is covered by a 5-year manufacturer's warranty.

Camouflage wz.93 "Pantera"
The wz.93 "Pantera" camouflage pattern is currently used by the Polish Armed Forces. It was the first camouflage pattern designed and introduced into widespread use in the Third Polish Repubic. The 1993 pattern combines mimetic and deforming properties through the use of irregular spots of various sizes. The color scheme, based on green, brown, and black, has been adapted to the conditions of Polish forests, making "Pantera" a good choice for operations in the native terrain. Uniforms in this camouflage pattern are also part of the basic equipment for students of Military Uniform Classes.
