Mountain and trekking backpack 50+10L Men's Forclaz MT500 Air with rain cover

Description

Are you looking for a comfortable and versatile backpack without sacrificing weight? The MT500 AIR has been designed for you by our team of enthusiasts. What are the dimensions of this backpack? Dimensions of the backpack in use: Height: 65 cm / 26 in Width: 35 cm / 14 in Depth: 35 cm / 14 in Back length (= distance from the 7th vertebra to the iliac crest): Minimum: 39 cm / 15 in Maximum: 51 cm / 20 in Belt perimeter: Minimum: 79 cm / 31 in Maximum: 136 cm / 54 in What is the capacity of this backpack? The backpack has a volume of 50 L with an extension to hold an additional 10 L. The volume of each backpack is measured according to a standardized method. We use small balls to fill the main compartment as well as the pockets. Then we empty the balls into a graduated container, which provides the equivalent volume in litres, with a minimum margin of error. How much does the backpack weigh? 1,89 kg all inclusive. Weight of the detachable rain cover 100 g. What is the AIR concept? Like the MT900 UL line, the MT500 AIR series adopts a ventilated back structure with a mesh fabric that allows the back to breathe better and dry quickly. Rigidity guaranteed with a reinforced frame. The back height is adjusted using an easy- and quick-to-handle quick-release strap. What materials are used? Main fabric 210D RS polyamide (Ripstop = greater tear resistance), reinforced backpack bottom (420Dx330D RS) What is the recommended carrying weight? According to the program for which this backpack has been designed, we recommend not exceeding a load weight of 15 kg. This way you can enjoy all its qualities. In addition, so as not to strain your back too much, it is preferable not to exceed a load weight equivalent to 20-25% of your own weight. How to pack the backpack? Place the sleeping gear at the bottom. Heavy gear (tent, stove, food) is placed close to the back. Clothing can be placed around it. The mat or tent can be placed under the lid or under the backpack if there is no space inside. Keep the waterproof jacket and fleece handy. In the pockets, distribute the "small" items for daily use (sunscreen, map, glasses...). The water bladder is placed in the compartment along the back. How to use the multi-purpose straps? The new MT500 AIR and MT900 UL backpack series feature two straps equipped with open aluminium buckles (at the bottom of the backpack). These straps allow you to attach the tent or sleeping pad underneath the backpack or on top. When not in use, these straps can be stored (by pushing them inwards) in the hidden pocket provided for this purpose or they can be left loose and used for another purpose thanks to their lark's head buckle system. What are the complementary accessories?
