After some consideration, I chose the 25L version instead of the 15L and I think it was the right decision. Immediately upon opening, you can see the high quality of workmanship and solid materials – it’s clear that the backpack will last for many years. The stitching is precise and strong, I can’t see any faults. It’s worth checking opinions on international forums – they are very positive. Initially, I hesitated whether to choose a smaller backpack for everyday office use or shopping, but in the end the 25L turned out to be a better option, especially as it can be easily compressed, and it’s always better to have a bit more space. The only thing I’m missing is an official Savotta patch included. Apart from that, the product meets my expectations.
Savotta Kahakka Backpack 25 l - MultiCam
Military backpack with a capacity of 25 liters in MultiCam camouflage, made of lightweight yet durable 1000D and 500D Cordura. Compatibility with the MOLLE system and the design with a wide-opening flap provide quick access to the contents and allow for gear expansion.
Durable 1000D and 500D Cordura construction
Most parts of the backpack have been sewn from abrasion-resistant 1000D Cordura. Less stressed areas, such as the back pocket for the foam insert and the sides of the flap, are made of lighter 500D Cordura.
Main compartment, side pockets, flat front pocket
The model is equipped with a spacious main compartment, which can be easily accessed by a flap closed with two buckles. Inside there is a pocket for a hydration system with an exit for a tube. In addition, the backpack has two side pockets, which will work well for carrying bottles or water bottles. A front flat zipped pocket allows you to store small accessories. The back panel features a removable foam insert that stiffens the backpack and, when removed, can be used as a seat or insulation in off-road conditions.
PALS system webbing, compression straps and Velcro
Expansion of the backpack is possible thanks to the PALS webbing system, which allows you to mount additional items of equipment. Compression straps allow you to adjust the volume of the load or attach larger items. Velcro located on the flap allows attaching an emblem, flag or patch.
Ergonomic shoulder straps, chest and waist strap, transport handle
Anatomically contoured and adjustable shoulder straps provide a comfortable fit and stability while walking. The chest and hip straps ensure even weight distribution, increasing carrying comfort. On top of the backpack is sewn transport handle, which makes it easy to lift and carry.

MultiCam Camouflage
MultiCam is a state-of-the-art camouflage pattern developed in 2002 by US company Crye Precision in cooperation with the United States Army Soldier Systems Center (Natick Labs) as part of the Objective Force Warrior program. Its goal was to create a versatile camouflage pattern that is effective in varied terrain and changing environmental conditions. The MultiCam pattern consists of seven colors, creating gradient transitions between shades of green, brown and beige. As a result, it dynamically adapts to the background, adopting shades of green in forested areas or browns and beiges in desert regions - in Central and Eastern European environments, it works particularly well in autumn and among dry vegetation. MultiCam has gained worldwide recognition and is used by numerous armed forces and special units. In 2010, the camouflage was officially adopted by the US Army as the camouflage pattern for soldiers stationed in Afghanistan, replacing the earlier Universal Camouflage Pattern (UCP). The pattern is also available to civilian users, making it a popular choice among military or airsoft enthusiasts.

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.
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.

The backpack stands out particularly for its high quality of workmanship. The materials used are solid and durable, making the whole thing look like reliable equipment for years of use. The design of the backpack is quite minimalist, which translates into its practicality and reliability – there are no unnecessary details. It fits well against the back and does not shift while being worn.

Almost three quarters of a year ago, I fell for Savotta, and this is already my third backpack from this brand. Having a backpack that I can rely on 100% in practically every situation is brilliant, and Savotta delivers that completely. In return for the high price, you get a backpack with an estimated capacity of 30+ litres. Inside, you’ll find just one large compartment and a sleeve for a hydration bladder, while the whole space is closed not so much by a roll-top as by more of a kind of “envelope”. On the outside, there are excellent and spacious side pockets (about 3 litres each). My only criticism concerns the pocket on the top lid of the backpack, which I expected to be a little larger (really just for a few small items; a notebook of about A5 size fits in there). I bought the version with Finnish M05 camouflage. All in all, I’m already looking forward to really putting the backpack to work :).

The Savotta Kahakka 25l in M05 Woodland camouflage is a backpack that impresses from the very first contact. It's immediately clear that it is made from solid, durable materials – there are no half-measures here. The whole thing gives the impression of being reliable gear that will serve you well for a long time during outdoor use, which seems to be the goal of the Savotta brand.
