The backpack in Rhodesian Camo looks fantastic in real life. This pattern has a unique, classic character and is rarely seen on the streets or trails, which definitely makes the backpack stand out. The 21-litre capacity works perfectly for everyday use as well as for short, one-day trips.

I have been using the Helikon-Tex EDC Cordura 21 l backpack for some time now and I am very satisfied with this decision. The backpack is carefully made, the Cordura looks like a very strong material, and the seams and zippers are exceptionally durable. The 21-litre capacity works perfectly for everyday use: for work, cycling or day trips. Even with heavier loads, the backpack remains comfortable and fits well on the back, and its interior can be flexibly organised using the Velcro panel. An additional advantage is the presence of the MOLLE system, which allows for the attachment of extra pouches. It's a product worth its price – I recommend it to anyone who needs a solid and versatile EDC backpack.

Great backpack for everyday use. Large main compartment, and the front compartment is fully covered with hook-and-loop panels for attaching pouches. Together with the MOLLE loops, this model leaves nothing to be desired when it comes to customisation.

I bought another backpack – although I already have a Raccoon with a similar capacity, the EDC is definitely more versatile! The quality of workmanship is very good, though the zippers can indeed get stuck sometimes... However, at such a promotional price, it's hard to complain about that! Additionally, the camouflage looks great!

I was looking for an adaptable bag for light day hikes and this is a fantastic choice. Combo it with pouches and a decent belt set up and one could easily camp with it.

Very good quality for the price 👍 Good quality 500d Cordura, the stitching looks sturdy, comfortable to wear!! It's a shame there aren't more compartments. Ideal for a one-day hike! To be tested over time.

Excellent bag. High quality construction and nice sturdy frame on the back. Got the backpack insert for it which does a good job of keeping my hydrapaks close to my back along with zip pocket for power bank etc. Really like the VIS velcro system on the front, easy to attach different stuff onto it depending on what I am doing. Very pleased with what you get for the price will definitely be getting more Helikon-Tex gear.

A backpack ideal for everyday use, a short trip, work or shopping. Very well made, nothing is coming undone, the seams are even, and carrying it is pure comfort. Additionally, the price-to-quality ratio is a strong point in favour of buying it.

With this rucksack, I found exactly what I was looking for. Compact size, discreet, enough MOLLE loops in the right places, and above all, the compartment for Velcro inserts was important to me as I already own several. These can now be easily and universally swapped between different rucksacks.

The backpack is comfortable, well-made, and looks very good. This is my first backpack with a rigid insert for the back, and only now do I see the difference compared to models with soft backs – the insert is practically imperceptible in terms of weight (it can also be removed), but it significantly increases comfort and stability. It's worth buying organisers straight away, as the set only comes with two empty compartments – I opted for the Large Organizer and the Backpack Insert. It's a shame that the organisers have to be bought separately, but it makes it easy to tailor the interior to your own needs. Even with the additional organisers, the price is attractive for this quality. I definitely recommend it.

The backpack is solidly sewn from quality materials. The straps are comfortable and highly adjustable. The entire bag is quite spacious and well-designed. If anyone is wondering, the external pocket for a bottle could be bigger. The MOLLE system works great. I definitely recommend it.

The backpack is solidly made and looks aesthetically pleasing. It doesn't look too military, so it doesn't attract too much attention. Unfortunately, it only has two compartments and no built-in dividers or organisers, so you have to buy them separately. I personally bought a large insert for the main compartment, a smaller one for the front, and a side bottle holder for the molle system. Overall, it's a successful and stylish model, but due to the lack of dividers, I rate it only 3 stars.

I bought this backpack for my son during a promotion on Helikon products. My son says it's his favourite backpack. Personally, I think it's very good and has great capacity, although in my opinion Wisport is better. Nevertheless, I intend to use it for short trips because it's more compact and has fewer compression straps, so when carrying less weight, nothing dangles. The quality of workmanship is at a high level. The zip doesn't get stuck, you just need to close it carefully.
