At last, I had a chance to try this backpack on an all-day trip to the woods with my dogs. It fit everything: an alcohol stove, water for drinking and cooking, food, a first-aid kit, a sweatshirt, a change of T-shirt, and various small items, and even so there was still a bit of space left. The weather also turned out to be such that the integrated rain cover proved itself as well. In one of the reviews on the British site, it was mentioned that the hip belt might not be ideal for taller people. Although the belt itself is not particularly substantial, at my height of 183 cm it caused no problems, though it is possible that body build also matters here — the larger the build, the more the belt may sit less on the hips and more on the stomach. Overall, my only reservation concerns the snap fasteners by the closures, because they seem rather delicate.
