Great backpack for weekend trips. A big plus is that it opens fully and has plenty of small pockets. The bottom strap can be detached, so it's also perfect for shorter outings.

The backpack itself is relatively good, but the quality of the zippers at this price leaves much to be desired! After 12 months of use, the zippers are unusable and the manufacturer excludes the 24-month warranty for consumable parts. Generally, I do not recommend it.
-
The best backpack I've ever had in my hands. According to the manufacturer's tags, cordura 1000D, so that's an extra plus. The amount of straps is sufficient, the raccoon side pockets fit perfectly. The rain cover is spacious and will certainly fit the backpack and additional items.

The backpack is handy, comfortable, and very well made. The internal zippered pockets are useful - it's easy to pack small items on the sides and throw bigger things inside. It's convenient that the compartment unzips down the sides to the very bottom – on multi-day trips, you can use it like a bag or suitcase, without having to unload everything to take something out from the bottom.

Hello, in my opinion, this is one of the coolest Wisport backpacks. Top quality, lots of very well-thought-out pockets. I am 172 cm tall and it is extremely comfortable; the hip belt is right where it should be, but of course, it is adjustable. This is my third Wisport backpack and I am waiting for the next new products from this Polish brand.

Nice compact shape, which makes it comfortable to carry despite its large capacity. Well-stitched from good materials. I was looking for something like this for forest trips and I am very satisfied.

Very comfortable to wear even with a heavy load. The material is solid, well-stitched. This is a top-tier product, exactly what I was looking for. I recommend it.
