Rock 60/40+5L Internal Frame Hiking Backpack for Outdoor Camping Traveling Backpacking Backpack

This is a review of the Naturehike ZT14 (journey) XPAC series Backpack. I used this pack to travel around Europe recently, it accompanied me during trips around Holland, Paris, Switzerland, Italy & Spain, during sunny days as well as rain showers. It is an excellent backpack, I don't tend to over-pack it, and only use it within its 5 kg limit. I tend to pack essentials for the day, below 3.5 kg and it works really well. It's well made, with durable strong materials, and the shoulder straps are well padded and comfortable. I'm 5'7 it fits me perfectly. I love the two internal pockets, and also the outside stretchy mesh zipped pocket. It is excellent for storing my glasses, hats, and light things inside it. The water bottle pocket is also nice and deep, and can easily accommodate my usual bottle of water or my insulated travel mug. Great value for money, and brilliant in use. I would recommend this pack for outdoor people who wish to travel light, and not worry about wear & tear too much, as it's very well made. It looks pretty stylish too, and can accommodate a portable folding mat at the top end of the pack if out hiking. I love it! : )

Is it the perfect product? No. Is it amazing value for money with useful features? Yes. This bag is a cross been some alpine and some trekking ultralight ideas. Obviously not the lightest on the market but definitely less bulky than a traditional pack whilst still remaining comfy, a nice compromise in my opinion. You might miss having a lid but learn to love dry bag style for those rainy days. The big net pocket is incredibly versatile, especially for highly used items. Rain cover is decent too, but I usually have to get a helping hand putting it on when the bag is being used towards it's upper limit. Want to try an alternative backpack? Naturehike stuff is pretty solid and straightforward because they keep it functional.

For the price these backpacks are superb, the materials and general quality of the stitching is far above this price point. There is only one caveat and that's whether it fits you or not, as they're not adjustable length wise. I'm 6ft 2" and mine fitted me really well, I can cinch the straps nice and tight and its really comfortable, with well padded straps. I use mine regularly and am very happy with it. The person who said the 60 litre version isn't 60 litres is clueless, the top is designed to extend and unroll upwards and you can definitely pack a lot into this backpack. I'm not an ultralight hiker but I can get all the kit I need into it, including a tent and meals (and I mean inside minus the poles, which I stick in the side pocket), for a two week through hike, no problem. The other thing I like is that you can use this as a smaller backpack as well, just roll the top right down and it's not a big looking or feeling bag, it's a bit of a swiss army knife to be honest. One criticism is that the rain cover is a bit small if you load this bag up, so I bought a cheap larger one that does a better job, but this is small beer for the price to be honest. This is surprisingly well made and tough bag for the price, when you consider how much an Atom pack would cost, which is very similar (I think this bag is based on that design) then you're getting a lot for your money. If you can afford an Atom pack then get one, it'll be great, but if you're on a budget, and it fits you, then this bag is superb, highly recommended from this experienced hiker. Update to my previous comments: l discovered you can make minor height adjustments to the pack. The waist belt has a big Velcro patch in the centre behind the padding, once you have released it from the Velcro you can move the belt an inch or two up and down. It's a bit fiddly but it can be done, l don't think too many people realise this as l missed it as well. This may be enough to make the pack shorter for some people as it seems to suit taller people like myself.

Brilliant all round. Used it for entirety of Pembrokeshire coastal path. Light, water resistant. V well designed. Held all my gear for a week's hiking and camping. Adds very little weight to overall carry. Robust. All the pockets and features you'd want. V comfortable on back. I'm 6ft 1inch and it fitted my back perfectly and sits v securely and comfortably on my back. Couldn't be happier with my purchase. Glad I bought it before trump raised the price by 10%!

Large size ideal for hike camping, but the lack of adjustment means it won't fit all and could become uncomfortable. Hip pockets are essentially flat and of limited use but the side and back bockets are some of the best I've seen on a pack.

High quality well made, excellent value relative to the average cost of ultralight rucksacks. I was shocked how comfortable this pack was, though a lot of that is forcing me to use more compact most ultralight camping kit. I literally forgot I was wearing it because it was so comfortable. I've carried 10kg in it happily. I was able to get my down sleeping bag, special lightweight inflatable sleeping mat, lightweight 1p hiking pole tent, 2 titanium pots with my food and stove inside, waldo mess kit, water bottle, tea and coffee container, a large gas canister, a dog blanket and small pillow along with small essentials in the hip belt like torch and first aid kit. All of this fit in okay with water and beer in the side pockets and my rain jacket and such shoved in the mesh pocket. For an overnight the size is very good and even for a few days you can probably get your gear in no problem so long as it's midrange ultralight type gear. Looks great works great. Highly recommend. hip belt and load lifters are great and various bungies let you add carabinas with small hanging objects okay (this is where I keep a small towel) the chest clip is useless for most due to being too low down. The pack may not suit every body as well as mine, I am pretty short and slim for a guy so it might suit average women and smaller men best.

Acquisto e testato prima di utilizzarlo nella Translagorai ad agosto. Ha superato ampiamente il test confermandosi un ottimo acquisto

Light. Comfortable to wear for long hikes. Would prefer some more large pockets, now I use bags to keep things separated. Good price. Quality seems reasonable, but we'll know in a year or two.

Good ratio quality / price

Excellent introduction to a lighter pack. They've done a nice job. One waist belt pocket zipper was catching when I got it, but with use straightened out and works correctly. The water bottle holder on the front is excellent for holding a cell phone (iphone 8 in otterbox), and can hold a battery bank as well. I use the side pockets for water bottles. Took it for an overnighter on the augerpoint traverse, vancouver island. It performed well. A bit of noise from the pack while hiking, but I've had that before with far more expensive packs. This is a budget pack after all! I'm 6' tall, and this pack is a little short for my torso. Would be nice if it was torso adjustable.

Muy cómoda y ligera , con buenos acabados de cremalleras etc
