The Helikon-Tex backpack looks even better than in the photos, feels very solidly made, and works well both on a vest and as an additional pack for a tactical rucksack.
A 7.5-litre backpack that can be directly attached to the Guardian Plate Carrier tactical vest. It is made of durable and damage-resistant nylon. It provides space for carrying and storing essential equipment.
It features a spacious main compartment closed with a two-way zip. The interior is lined with soft Velcro, allowing for the attachment of additional accessories. The front pocket is designed for smaller accessories.
Adjustable shoulder straps make it easy to fit the user. Straps on the back allow the backpack to be attached to a tactical vest. The front and sides of the backpack feature a MOLLE system, which allows for attaching additional pouches or utility pouches. Adjustable straps with buckles allow for compressing the volume of the backpack and strapping equipment to the outside. A shock cord is located at the bottom, increasing the possibilities of attaching equipment.
A Velcro panel on the front allows you to attach any emblems, such as a national flag, unit insignia or Morale Patches.

Exelent small backback. Easy to put in to plate Carrier back side and works great with about 1,5L hydration bladder. Molle atachments makes it easy to customise backback to your own needs. Great quality/cost rate.
-
I bought it as an accessory for my Multicam Black gear. It's not too big, but you can carry a water container and a few smaller items in it. The advantage is that it can be easily connected to the Helikon-Tex "Training Mini Rig".
-
The backpack is well made from durable materials, and can be attached to any vest with a molle system on the back. It is comfortable to carry and has the right number of well-placed pockets.
-
An excellent and straightforward base for personalisation. Although the capacity may seem small, the MOLLE system allows you to attach various accessories or pouches, so you can increase it. The material is of high quality, the zips are also solid, so the backpack will last for a long time. I definitely recommend it.
-
The backpack is comfortable, well-made, and offers various adjustment options. It works great for short trips outdoors. However, considering the price, it is worth waiting for a promotion, as you might feel a bit unsatisfied otherwise.
-
Good small daypack or additional pack for large backpacks. Thanks to MOLLE, it can be customised very individually, and you can attach several pouches for water bottles, binoculars or other items. The recommended retail price is definitely too high, even though the product is of very high quality.
-
The backpack fully meets my expectations. Both in terms of build quality and the materials used, it offers a high standard. I was looking for a small backpack and this model fits the bill perfectly. Additionally, I bought it during a promotion, which was a big plus.
-
This backpack is really great! What I like most is that you can attach it to the Helikon Chicom backpack. I carry a water bladder, food, and have some extra pouches attached to it. I definitely recommend it!
-
Great patrol backpack that works well under a vest. The included straps allow you to convert it even into a cycling backpack. It is very spacious – it easily fits food, a poncho, or smaller items. A big plus is the option to mount a hydration bladder and secure it with a clip.
-
Very good backpack for everyday EDC use. However, it should be noted that it lacks compartments and straps for small items, torches, or knives. A great solution is to use the Helikon EDC Insert Large pouch in Olive Green, which fits perfectly when attached to the upper Velcro part. It holds plenty of equipment, and underneath you can still fit a small Mil-Tec first aid kit, a headlamp, paracord, and other things. In the zipped pocket in the flap, you can keep a power bank, two cables, a notebook, and a pen. The material is durable Cordura. Carrying comfort is a personal issue – I myself have to get used to it, as I haven't used backpacks for a long time. Overall, it's ideal for EDC, you just need to buy an additional pocket. I definitely recommend it and I'm pleased with it.

Great backpack for the city and other occasions. It's made very solidly, from durable and pleasant-to-touch material, which is rare. The biggest drawback is the lack of a handle or loop that you could use to grab and carry it without putting it on your back. However, it's easy to make such a handle from paracord, which, hidden under the material, will look neat and not stand out. Advantages of the backpack: When in use, it doesn't make any noise, such as rattling zips or buckles. The adjustable straps are secured with a solid Velcro fastener. Hydration system openings are on both sides, although not in the centre at the top, which is rather unusual. The backpack is rigid where necessary, but not everywhere by force. It has an extensive system for attaching items and an elastic cord with a stopper on the bottom. A large Velcro patch is also placed on the MOLLE system.
-
The backpack is compact, quite spacious and comfortable to use. It is made from durable Cordura. The straps allow you to attach various items in many different ways. I definitely recommend it.
-
I bought the Helikon Guardian Smallpack backpack as an alternative to a waist pack and men's pouches. It is much more comfortable and spacious, so it doesn't get in the way during everyday use. It's perfect for small items, water, and other necessary accessories, especially in the summer.
-
Fits perfectly with the Helikon Guardian Plate Carrier, it sits excellently! An advantage is also the possibility of fitting it on the Helikon Training Mini Rig instead of the back straps.
