I'm giving 5 stars mainly because of the price, but the lack of a molle system is a downside for me. The side pockets could be a bit bigger to, for example, fit a thermos. The pocket with the permanently attached cover looks good at first glance, but the cover takes up space which could have been used better. Apart from that, the backpack is quite spacious, with easy access to everything without having to take everything out. The carrying system is very comfortable! If someone is looking for more advanced solutions, they may want to choose a more expensive model, but for less demanding users, this backpack is a great choice.

The backpack is very spacious. There are nice, comfortable pockets on the hip belt. Additionally, it is equipped with a chest strap, which, combined with the soft and thick padding on the back, makes it comfortable to wear even when fully loaded. I only miss a special pocket or pouch for documents. The built-in rain cover is a very pleasant and practical surprise.

Great backpack, I've been using it for two years and it still looks like new from the shop. Very comfortable, and it has a removable aluminium frame. As described, we get a very capacious backpack; you can tighten the straps, and then the whole thing becomes compact. You can easily attach things like mats, smaller bags, tarps, a blanket, an axe, a knife (after minor modifications), or anything else that fits under them to the straps themselves. The top straps can be fully tightened. The backpack has two minor flaws: lack of a MOLLE system (but if someone buys this type of backpack, they probably don't expect MOLLE), and no option to detach the hip belt, which is a bit inconvenient when wearing a shoulder bag, vest, or tactical belt. Overall, a very solid and good backpack. Many elements can be used creatively. I do not recommend it for soldiers or airsoft players because of the hip belt, but it's perfect for camps or trips.

I am very pleased with this product, the material is tasteful and comfortable. The backpack is solidly made from high-quality materials. The product matches the description, which I appreciate a lot. It's definitely worth buying, and of course I recommend it.

I spent 3 days in the forest with this backpack and it was completely sufficient to fit all the necessary gear. It has well-designed compartments, practical side pockets, and comfortable straps and belt. The backpack is also well-priced, so I can highly recommend this product.

Very comfortable and spacious backpack. Lots of pockets, even on the hip belt. You can hardly feel it on your back. At this price, it is hard to find anything better or even similar. I definitely recommend it!
-
When it comes to comfort for long journeys, this backpack turned out to be more comfortable than other models. The bottom compartment is very practical. The downside is the lack of a molle system and a small upper handle to grip.
-
The backpack is perfect for a 2-3-day trip.
-
The backpack is fine.
-
The backpack is well-made in terms of quality, it's very spacious and comfortable to carry. The price matches the quality, in my opinion that's a plus.
-
This is the best backpack I've had so far, very spacious.
-
For a small amount of money, you get a backpack with a classic, slightly improved cut. It worked well in the summer. It only required some adjustment to the stitching of the drawstring top, which was unevenly sewn from the beginning. Other than that, the backpack turned out to be durable and practical. I recommend fastening the pocket zips with Nite Ize carabiners; S-Biner KeyRack Black ones fit best. Thanks to this, the bottom and side pockets and the main compartment won't open by accident.
-
I haven't had the chance to test the backpack yet, but it gave me a very good impression when I unpacked it!
-
The backpack is spacious, looks elegant and meets my expectations. I recommend it to everyone.
