I have been using this backpack (Tarfala 35L) for the first season. I switched from the Alpinus Lecco 30L. I rate backpacks of this brand very highly for the quality of workmanship, the materials used, comfort, ergonomics - the arrangement and number of pockets, and durability. I deduct one star for what I believe is an incorrectly stated capacity. The Tarfala is much less spacious than the Lecco, which, according to Alpinus, has a capacity of 30 liters. It is possible that the fault lies with the frame and mesh used (a very comfortable solution during summer usage) and the rain cover occupying the bottom pocket. Comparing these two backpacks and considering that the Lecco has 30 liters, the Tarfala does not have more than 25 liters of actual capacity. Apart from that, the backpack is excellent. I use it every day while cycling - 25 km. This is probably the most comfortable model I’ve ever had. The military "duffels" can’t even be compared to the Tarfala from Alpinus in terms of everyday comfort. I highly recommend it, but keep in mind the actual capacity.
Alpinus Tarfala Backpack 35 l - Blue
Constructed from robust 420D nylon, the 35-liter backpack delivers exceptional durability. Outfitted with two primary compartments secured with zippers, the pack ensures your essentials remain safe. The first compartment features three internal dividers for efficient gear organization. Inside the second compartment, a spacious divider allows for the secure transportation of a laptop up to 47 x 24 cm or a tablet.
Numerous zippered pockets
Additionally, the backpack includes a front utility pocket, a top access pocket, and a zippered pocket on the hip belt, along with two stretchable side pockets and an open front compartment.
Comfortable carrying system, ADS ventilation system
Soft, padded shoulder straps allow for both length and angle adjustment, providing a customized fit for the wearer. A broad hip belt and a chest strap distribute the weight evenly. The chest strap features a buckle with an integrated emergency whistle. The ADS (Alpinus Dry System) ventilation system promotes optimal air circulation, greatly enhancing comfort throughout physical activity.
Compression straps, Integrated rain cover
Compression straps enable you to minimize the backpack’s capacity as needed. Side elastic cords with stoppers make it easy to secure extra gear. Enhanced visibility after dark is provided by Alpinus Safety reflective elements positioned on the front.
Additionally, the Tarfala model features an integrated rain cover.
