Dimensions

Height : 69cm,
Width: 43cm,
Depth: 35 cm

Capacity

Extendable volume: 50 L + 10 L extension thanks to the bag’s top flap with adjustable height. The volume of each backpack is measured using a standardised method. we use small balls to fill the main compartment as well as each pocket. The balls are then emptied into a graduated container in order to determine the equivalent volume in litres, with a margin of error of just a few %.

Bag construction

The assembly of the different parts of this bag has been proven to withstand high tension levels, especially when it is filled or handled.

Each element has been designed to guarantee the reliability of the construction: thick front zip (10mm), reinforced seams at the base of the skirt and on the straps.

SYMBIUM technology

The Symbium concept reduces the swinging effects which tire the trekker. This concept is based on the optimisation of the structure of the belt, ensuring that the backpack is better balanced when walking.

How to pack a backpack?

Position your water bag in the compartment provided for this purpose.
In the back, place the heavy equipment (tent, stove, food) and position your clothes around it. Your tent or groundsheet can also be placed under the flap or under the bag.
Keep your waterproof jacket and warm layer within arm’s reach.
Place small items for daily use (sun cream, map, glasses etc.) in the pockets…)

Timeless styling

We have selected pigment colours and used clean lines for a timeless style that will be passed down from generation to generation.

Why are our rain covers grey?

The colour of our bag covers is neutral as it uses less dye. We also use a “bi-ton” dyeing process where only one thread in every two is dyed. This dyed yarn is also made from a bulk dyeing process which incorporates the colour pigments from the yarn manufacturing phase onwards. Forclaz is committed to improving the world impact of its products through these actions.

Dying process

Textile dyeing requires a lot of water but also produces waste water from the dye baths. To reduce the world impact, we have opted for mass pigmentation, integrating the colour pigments from initial thread manufacture. This process reduces this backpack’s CO2 emissions by 20% compared to the previous model.
