Hiking Backpack 10 L - NH Arpenaz 50

The volume of each backpack is measured using a standard method: we fill the main compartment, as well as each pocket, with little balls. Then we empty these balls into a graduated container, which gives the equivalent volume in litres.

1 - Loosen all the straps (straps, belt, load adjuster straps)2 - Put on the backpack3 - Tighten the shoulder straps4 - Adjust the load adjuster straps as needed

Put your heavy items at the bottom. Pack your clothes around these items. Keep your waterproof jacket and/or fleece within arm’s reach. Place small items for daily use (sun cream, map, glasses, etc.) in the pockets.

The components of the bag are water-repellent so that you can temporarily continue walking/hiking in light rain.Caution: this backpack is not watertight/waterproof and it does not have a rain cover.If you want to continue walking/hiking in the rain and protect your belongings, we recommend the following model: "10 to 20 L rain cover", which can be viewed on our website, item reference 8772113.

We carry out several laboratory tests to validate the bag's components: fabric, buckles, straps, foam, zips. For example, for a fabric, we test the resistance to abrasion and tearing, colour fastness when exposed to UV light and washing, and waterproofing. We also conduct tests to check the resistance of assembly using a dummy that reproduces the movements of a hiker to replicate several years of wear and tear on the bag.

Thanks to your feedback, we have improved the design and concept of the NH100 10-litre backpack.On this new model, we have added a double zip on the main compartment and a larger pocket bottom on the outside pocket. The aim is to not lose your belongings when opening your bag.Of course, we haven't increased the price!
