Spacious and lightweight single-compartment backpack Trail 42 from Czech outdoor equipment manufacturer Pinguin with many years of experience.
The outer surface of the backpack is made from Nylon Robic, whose fibres are very strong and resistant to tearing or breaking. High-quality Japanese YKK zippers, which are reliable and durable, are already standard on Pinguin products. All Nifco buckles are made from Polyoxymethylene (POM), a durable, rigid yet flexible thermoplastic polymer.
There is more in the single top-access compartment than it first appears. It is equipped with a mesh pocket with zipper and a small carabiner, a divider to separate a possible water reservoir, and at the back there is a removable HDPE plate with duralumin reinforcement, which helps distribute the weight of the backpack more evenly across the back.
The E3D system provides excellent ventilation in the back area and, for even greater comfort and stability when carrying, the backpack is equipped with a removable hip belt and a sternum strap. Padded shoulder straps are a matter of course, additionally reinforced in the upper area.
On the sides of the backpack there are compression straps, which allow you to reduce the size of the backpack if you are only carrying a few items. There are also mesh bottle pockets on both sides and loops for attaching trekking poles.
In adverse weather conditions, you will appreciate the included rain cover for the backpack.
