The Kantamus 40 l is a very well-designed backpack for longer trips. The spacious main compartment and an additional 8 liters in the adjustable lid provide plenty of room for gear. The internal aluminum frame, wide hip belt, and load-lifter straps help when carrying heavier loads. Durable Cordura, side access to the interior, and numerous PALS webbing straps create a practical and modular design. Reliable gear for years, for many long years. Definitely worth the money!
Savotta Kantamus Backpack 40 l - Green
Rucksack offering a 40-liter capacity in a green shade. Constructed from hard-wearing, abrasion-resistant Cordura fabric. The design is equipped with adjustable shoulder straps, along with both hip and chest straps for enhanced support. An aluminum frame reinforces overall structure, providing increased stability when transporting heavy gear.
Durable 1000D and 500D Cordura construction
The majority of the back utilizes highly durable and abrasion-resistant 1000D Cordura. Areas less exposed to abrasion, such as the back pocket designed for a foam insert and the roll-top closure, are constructed from lighter 500D Cordura.
Main compartment, side pockets, flat front pocket, removable flap
A generously sized main compartment offers rapid access via a Roll-top closure. Internal organization includes a pocket for a hydration insert equipped with a dedicated tube outlet. The backpack incorporates two large side pockets ideal for storing a canteen or a beverage bottle. An expansive, low-profile front pocket secured with a zipper is located on the exterior. A removable foam insert at the back delivers extra support and, when detached, functions as a field seat pad or supplementary insulation. A detachable top flap provides further storage space, adding approximately 8 liters of carrying capacity.
PALS system straps, compression straps, and Velcro
Multiple PALS webbing straps offer the option to expand the backpack with extra pouches or pockets. Compression straps secured with buckles enable you to adjust the pack’s capacity or attach additional gear. The Velcro panel on the flap is designed for affixing any patch or insignia.
Adjustable carrying system
Ergonomically shaped and adjustable shoulder straps ensure that the backpack fits the body perfectly, delivering exceptional comfort on long treks. A removable chest strap, in combination with hip straps padded with soft foam, guarantees excellent stabilization. Featuring PALS webbing, the hip strap allows for attachment of additional gear and offers a total length of 140 cm. Positioned at the top is a convenient carrying handle for effortless lifting and transport. An integrated aluminum frame further reinforces the backpack, enhancing both rigidity and structural stability.

Cordura is a material woven from durable nylon fibers, developed by DuPont. The structure of the material provides lightness and abrasion resistance, as well as weather resistance. Due to its properties, Cordura is widely used in tactical equipment.
PALS (Pouch Attachment Ladder System) is a modular mounting system for pockets and pouches, used in the MOLLE system. It consists of horizontally sewn rows of 1 inch (25.4 mm) wide, fixed spacing webbing (such as on a backpack) and vertical webbing for attachment and threading (on a pocket). This system is usually equipped with snaps, which further secures the pinned items.

This backpack is from a completely different, more professional league — every detail has been carefully thought out and subordinated to its intended purpose. It was not designed for ultralight trekking, but to perform as well as possible in truly demanding conditions. The carrying system provides a high level of comfort; I mean loads of around 16–17 kg (although it can handle more as well) on 20-kilometre routes with elevation gains of about 1000 m per day, in alpine conditions all year round. It is exceptionally robust and offers wide configuration possibilities thanks to additional accessories, so it can be adapted to different needs. You can see that its design is based on a well-thought-out concept and solid analysis. You buy it once and have peace of mind for a long time.

Legendary model from Savotta. The backpack is practically indestructible, a purchase for a lifetime. Very comfortable for longer hikes. Worth every penny.

Great backpack for roughing it in the forest – spacious, thoughtfully designed pockets, lots of attachment points for gear needed for multi-day camping trips. The price matches the quality of the product, and the fact that it's not always available shows it's really worth it!
