Bit of a Savotta fan boy here I own pretty much everything they have made and now I have started purchasing their older stuff. This pack fits their 4L side pouches really well and like with all their other products the quality is top notch. The only negative thing I would add is that I wish this pack was sold with the frame rather than this being a separate purchase, to me a pack of this size really needs the frame and I couldn't see myself using it without it. Looking forward to using this pack over the summer months for my camping trips and it's now my gear bag for my airsoft stuff.
Savotta Jaakari M Backpack 30 l - M05 Finnish Woodland Camo
A 30-litre capacity backpack in M05 Finnish Woodland Camo, suitable for everyday use, field tasks, and as part of a larger kit. Thanks to its slim design, contoured shoulder straps, and padded hip belt, it is ideal for longer hikes with heavier loads.
Main compartment with flap closure, mesh pockets
Main compartment top closure with drawstring collar. The flap features a zippered pocket for storing documents, keys, or a phone. A side zipper allows quick access to the interior without opening the flap. There are 2 mesh pockets on the sides.
Velcro panel, hydration system compartment
The flap includes a velcro panel for attaching a patch, a national flag emblem, unit insignia, or Morale Patches. Inside the rear wall is a hydration bladder compartment. Two side ports allow for the tube to be routed from either the left or right side, as well as cables or antennas.
MOLLE/PALS straps, compression straps
MOLLE/PALS system on the sides, flap, and hip belt allows for additional pouches and accessories to be attached. Four bottom loops allow for a sleeping bag, tent, or other gear to be secured. Side compression straps allow for adjusting the backpack volume to the load or for attaching extra gear externally.
Durable Cordura 1000D
The backpack is made of 1000D Cordura, known for its high resistance to abrasion and tearing, with an internal polyurethane coating. The straps and trims are made of durable polyester in accordance with military standards.
Padded shoulder straps, hip belt
S-shaped padded shoulder straps with a detachable chest buckle and a soft hip belt with lumbar support ensure comfort under heavier loads. The belt is easily adjustable with a forward-pulling system and includes a quick-release buckle.
Stiffening insert, frame add-on option
On the back, within a compartment, there is a removable stiffening insert made of plastic, allowing for even weight distribution and the elimination of pressure points on the back. This is a proprietary system by Savotta, enabling the Jääkäri M model to replace the in its default settings insert with a compatible aluminium frame (available separately).

M05 Camo
The M05 camouflage (Finnish M05 Maastokuvio) is a family of pixelated camouflage patterns introduced into the Finnish Defence Forces in 2005 as a successor to the M91 pattern. It was developed based on digital analysis of photographs of Finnish forests taken in different seasons by the Finnish Forest Research Institute. The M05 family includes several variants, such as woodland, snow, and cold weather.
The main woodland version of M05 consists of patches in light green, dark green, brown, and dark graphite, effectively replicating the structure of Finnish forests. Due to similar vegetation and terrain conditions, the M05 Woodland camouflage also performs well in the forests of Central and Eastern Europe, providing effective concealment in natural surroundings.

Cordura is a material woven from durable nylon fibers, developed by DuPont. The structure of the material provides lightness and abrasion resistance, as well as weather resistance. Due to its properties, Cordura is widely used in tactical equipment.
MOLLE (Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment) is a system for attachment of tactical equipment, used for example in backpacks or tactical vests. It provides the possibility of flexible and modular placement of various accessories and pockets, which allows personalization and optimal adjustment of the item to the specific needs of the user. It is widely used by the military, special services and survival and outdoor enthusiasts.
PALS (Pouch Attachment Ladder System) is a modular mounting system for pockets and pouches, used in the MOLLE system. It consists of horizontally sewn rows of 1 inch (25.4 mm) wide, fixed spacing webbing (such as on a backpack) and vertical webbing for attachment and threading (on a pocket). This system is usually equipped with snaps, which further secures the pinned items.

Top quality. Maybe the toughest build backpack. Only minus is lack of pockets and bit stiffy material. I have been using that couple years and it still looks like new.

Great product. One of the best in its category of backpacks. High quality workmanship and materials used. The whole thing is thoughtfully designed, without unnecessary extras, and fully functional. The only drawback is the high price, but it is completely adequate for the quality.
