Do you suggest this one instead of the classic mh-500? I prefer this one of the video at a first view, but I don't understand why it looks more complete and it cost less 🙄🙄😅 what I am missing?
Hey man great review, thanks for putting it together. One question I'd have once you'll have used it a bit more in the field : how reliable is that main zipper in terms of durability? I never used a system like this before and am concerned it might eventually fail during a hike leaving the bag useless to old my stuff. Esp due to the fact it can also be zipped from the bottom up.

Great little video man, would you still recommend this bag? I'm heading to Asia for 6 weeks, looking for a decent 50L. I've also been looking at a Solognac 50L on decathlon.
Some people have commented about the security concern with the exposed zipper which does seem like a legitimate concern. I am wondering if when traveling through airports or cities using the rain cover could help eliminate this concern. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thanks! But the front zipper is secure? I mean If somebody else wants to stole something is easy to open. Can the bottom zipper go to top closing ? or there are something where use a padlock?
That's a good observation. I don't think it would be possible to lock as the zips go to opposite sides off the bag. So probably not great of taking through an airport or somewhere busy
@@glennrowanoutdoors5098 That's honestly my only complaint with this bag as well but I believe it is quite important. The fact that the front zipper can't be locked, but more importantly, can be opened from such an easy angle just instantly makes me not consider this backpack at all, however good it might be. Sorry for barging like that, your review was fantastic but this is the first place I saw someone mention this flaw and I couldn't resist to write a comment. It is a pity because in all other regards, I believe this is the best budget backpack out there and if they could have just put the zipper differently this problem would not even exist.
@@lefterismagkoutas4430 Many people have said bottom zipper is secure enough that it doesn't open automatically during a trek, But if thats something you are worried about, then you can simply tie a lace from the bottom loops to the zipper and it wont go up. For security, like at airports: The only solution I found is to buy a retractable cable lock. Lock the bottom zip to the loops found at the bottom of the bag. Top of the bag isn't much secure either, it has clips which, when you unlock, gives easy access to the zipper. So I guess if you have a long enough cable, then you could loop the bottom zipper around the bag and lock both the zippers. A lot of people are swearing by this backpacks comfort and features and its a shame that security seems to be an overlooked feature.
Good review. I just ordered one, so hopefully it goes well. I like that it opens at the front, and with its size I think it should just about squeeze into the overhead compartments on the airlines I fly with. It seems that the 60-65 litre backpacks are too long for it. Does anyone here have experience with this?
A friend asked me to tell you that they think you will find that many women need different shaped shoulder straps for an anatomical difference that occurs on the front of women.
There are two main straps which easily adjust the positioning on the back. I think this is the easiest pack I've owned, when it comes to making adjustments

Great review. Thanks. Tried to buy one but Decathlon are out so found one secondhand almost brand new for £25. Very happy.
I just paid 80 euro for it
Thanks Glenn, would be good to see a video on how you pack this back pack.
How did you know I was getting this instead of my old Osprey Talon 44l. Good review thanks, mine arrives tomorrow hopefully
Are you happy with it so far?

Is it possible to remove the aluminium bars so I can machine wash it?
Nice Overview!
Cheers
Great video. Waiting for your review on this!
Excellent backpack I purchased it thanks to you, I subscribe
Great video man, going to get this backpack for an upcoming hike! Cheers

Hello! Replying here 7 months later, but it's never too late. 😂😂
I returned from Germany to Brazil with this backpack, it fit without any problems.
A friend asked me to tell you that they think you will find that many women need different shaped shoulder straps for an anatomical difference that occurs on the front of women.
Haha, thanks for the anatomy class😄 Seriously though, thanks for watching. I appreciate the engagement 👍
Love the vid bro
Nice review mate 👍
how do you add a roll mat to the bottom, like what straps can you use?
Nice portuguese water dog by the way!
Still happy with it?
Is there a storm flap behind the zip down the middle to stop rain getting in?
50 quid! They're $100 now that I'm looking.
can i fit a 2 person tent + sleeping bag + camera gear + miscellaneous inside it ? or what is its maximum limit ?
Yes and you will still have space for 7 pairs of shoes, 4 leather jackets and 1 microwave.
🤣@@yassinee.3463
Does this bag work for carry on??
Thanks, but you completely missed everything about the Easy-fit feature :)
Does it come with a free rain cover?
yes it comes with one
@@Tboghe I can attest that the rain cover works very well.
Are you able to adjust the torso length of the pack?
There are two main straps which easily adjust the positioning on the back. I think this is the easiest pack I've owned, when it comes to making adjustments
@@glennrowanoutdoors5098 Awesome! I'm only 5'3 so a little worried about proper fit so thank you!
What size of Waterbottle did fit in the pocket on the right side?
fits 1L nalgene bottle perfectly
Allowed as cabin bag in plane? Please respond
Yep!
Decathlon make a woman's version of this pack, same features, adjusted shape.
like for dogo 😍
Disliked 😂😂😂😂
The woman version can be used by men?
I wonder the same about the men version used by a woman
shit i got the red one which says designed for women
Does it include a rain cover?
I have the woman’s version and it does ;)
@@miladekiefte2332 Thank you so muuuuch
@@PeejaiiOanes no problem :)
