    I bought this bag Fjällräven Abisko Hike 35 a month ago, and already used several times, including a trip to London, UK (from continental Europe), which included flights. It fitted as a cabin luggage (and I flew with Ryanair, which is a low cost airline, where rules about baggage are quite strict). When I was in the Central London and going through unbelievably packed with people streets, I found the bag to be compact enough to navigate through crowds easily. I put the zipper's drawstring through upper clipper and closed it down, so nobody could open the bag. My most essential things like wallet or phone were in my separate shoulder bag, which I kept in front of me. What I really liked about the backpack is the frontal opening, where I can take my stuff quickly out or in, and in the same time I don't have to deal with suitcase-like wide opening, which I have found to be frustrating. I am a person, who packs everything into textile tote bags (the kind of cheapest ones), because I got them from several places for free, I almost don't use packing cubes, except for toothbrush or shoes. So I just pull out the backpack the tote bag that I need at the moment, take out what I need, and pull back into backpack. It's especially useful in public places, where I don't have to open things for everybody to see. I also found backpack to be really comfortable, easy to carry all the load. I can easily see travelling with this backpack Fjällräven Abisko Hike 35 plus a smaller shoulder bag to many places in the world. So I see it not only as a trekking backpack, but also as a travel backpack. I am the kind of person, who loves backpacking, and not just going from airport to hotel, and back. But also from time to time going into adventures and wilderness.

    I have a few Fjallraven pieces and they all have that heirloom quality - I have the old Abisko but just bought a smaller Singi pack with extra side pockets which I am very please with for travelling

    Thank you, this was very helpful for getting a good impression for the pack. I'm looking for a pack to go for easy day forest walks, but which can also be used for 2-night cabin trips. I think I have found what I was looking for!

      Yup, this'll be perfect. Exactly what I use for that purpose.

    Two things convinced me to like and comment on this video:

    Am having tremendous difficulty using the toggle and cords to open and close the main pocket. I've had a lot of experience with backpacks, but I can't seem to be able to work out how to loosen the toggle sufficiently to let the cords run through it. What am I missing? Any suggestions?

      Should just be a case of grabbing both fabric tabs and pulling apart. Make sure not to hold the drawcord itself.

    The zip in the back seems like it would be easy for someone to unzip and take stuff from your bag. Is there a way to lock up the back zipper?

    • @trekitt
      @trekitt  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      There's no official way to lock the back zip, the zip pull does sit under the lid when both are completely done up however. It's really designed for ease of access over security, something you'll see on quite a lot of hiking packs.

    This one or Bergtagen 38?
    I know the volumes change, but what is your opinion in terms of comfort and construction?
    Thanks!

    • @trekitt
      @trekitt  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Tricky one. The Bergtagen is a tougher construction, built more for climbing/mountaineering, but that also means you lose some features that the Abisko offers. A notable one is the access to the pack as well as external bottle/stash pockets which can be useful depending on use. If you're using it primarily for walking/hiking stick with the Abisko, if you think you'll use it climbing and scrambling as well then the extra burliness of the Bergtagen might be of benefit.

    • @trekitt
      @trekitt  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Whilst you do only get one pole attachment point, the side pockets are intentionally oversized so you should still be able to get a water bottle in alongside your walking poles. Just make sure the poles are tucked behind the compression strap and you'll be good to go.

    Hello !!!! I want to buy this pack ! What’s size will you recommend for me ! I’m 174 long and 74 kg not fat boy !👀 :) normal people ! What size will be ! S/M ? The write Dam size ! For this size ! What do you think ?
    Thx 🙏🏾 . Nice review by the way !

      @trekitt  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Sounds like the S/M will be a better fit for you rather than the M/L. Our best advice would always be to try visiting your local stockist to try it in person if you can, but if that's not an option we would hedge our bets on the S/M for you.

      Fjällräven decided to go in a different direction with the new Abisko Hike 35, but they still have plenty of packs in their range using G-1000.

    It’s more of a daypack or cheap hiking pack. Non adjustable carry system and you can’t remove the hip belt

    £200 for 35litres of recycled materials.
    Pretty steep pricing.
