I’m very lucky in that over the past year or so Webtogs have been sending me useful items of kit to review. Our back packs are designed to be used all around the world in some of the most challenging environments.

Whilst this zip was very useful, once it has failed the rucksack is pretty useless as the contents are prone to falling out. It’s well constructed from what appear to be quality components, and comes with clear instructions on how to achieve a comfortable fit. Auch der sehr spezielle "doppelte" Reisverschluss sieht genial aus und läßt sich hervorragend bedienen. Delivering incredible freedom of movement with a stable and comfortable carry, they’re built for breaking new ground on your next big journey. Key features on the AT Kit Bag include a stashable harness, internal pockets and internal load compression.I've used it in rain, with a liner as there's no rain cover, and I've not noticed the shoulder straps having gone soggy.

We sell quality outdoor brands and whilst we do appreciate faults do occur please note that everything has a natural lifetime. However from time to time there can be the odd issue due to the nature of the stresses and strains put on the packs during your adventures.

All Lowe Alpine packs come with a guarantee that covers the original owner, with proof of purchase, for the usable lifetime of the product. Then the long zip on the rucksack that enabled insertion of the tent or other items without having to empty the rucksack - it failed. Compression straps featuring Lowe Alpine’s brilliant LoadLocker buckles and a tamper-proof, lockable zip keep the bag securely closed and your belongings safe and secure.Presumably, these are designed to make it easier to pick the bag up, or to drag it from place to place. Two small hip belt pockets accommodate items such as a mobile ‘phone or a wallet, but these wouldn’t be big enough for GPS units much bigger than a Geko.
