Helikon-Tex Summit Backpack, Outback Line

Good quality and nice delivery.

Well made, top quality backpack! I might get another!

The material will wear quickly, don't put too much weight in it. Other than that I loved it.

good: it rides very comfortably. more so than an alice, matilda, of molle 2 pack. it holds a decent amount of kit. its well made and holds up to typical hiking abuse. bad: it holds almost enough but not quite. this is a day pack. it holds my axe, first aid, a bit of food, hammock, tarp, underquilt, container, fire kit, cordage, knife, lights, camping quilt, and a few very small items. all my stuff is ultralight gear. if it weren't then the summit would hold barely anything if a sleeping bag were involved. notice i didnt mention it holding my water? it doesnt. i have to carry that somewhere else.

This doesn’t appear to be new. Firstly it smells of a cheap antiperspirant, possibly perspiration as well. Couple that with a £2 coin in the left hand pocket on the waist belt and this clearly used. Secondly the backpack came without tags in a plain bag. By comparison a new Helikon fleece, as pictured, in a branded bag with tags. This needs resolving

Zaino perfetto per trekking della durata di 1/2 giorni essendo veramente capiente , utilizzato per fare il sentiero del’infinito da Rio Maggiore e dopo una giornata intera posso dire che é veramente comodo , i materiali sono ottimi ma essendo Helikon non ne avevo dubbi , unica pecca se devo essere sincero é l’assenza di telino per la pioggia che é presente in altri modelli della stessa marca

Molto capiente, ottimo per un 36h, non 5 stelle solo perché lo devo provare meglio! Mi sembra un po’ leggerino di materiale! Quindi potrebbe dare un po’ di problemi dove c’è una vegetazione bassa e spinosa!

The very first hill walking daybag I bought and I still keep coming back to it. At 1.2kg this is a light bag but bombproof. Very comfortable in use. I like a rolltop. You can just clip the hipbelt out of the way if you dont need it as in the picture. My style is I always carry a german army closed cell mat on my adventures and this gives some additional form to the compartment. The poncho goes over the bag so I dont carry a separate bag cover. I always carry a jetboil, basha and basha poles for shelter in case of my or someone elses need and a hikeman groundsheet. Still loads of room for clothes. Hydration and coffee wise I carry cold coffee (so nice!). I gather water to filter if necessary so dont need to load up with a bladder. The side pockets are fine. I carry a swedish army flask or smart bottle conveniently in my jacket. You can add pouches if you want to carry your kitchen with you but I like pub grub where possible and prefer to save the more ambitious cooking for a more static fun woodland camp. Still room for a frypan, stove and onions at the expense of clothing if thats your thing. I like onions when I am out and just slice and heat them in a little water to give body to a noodle soup. Room for a lightweight tent like the bobcat at the expense of the basha. Hopefully this shows how versatile this bag is. Am I going to collect firewood with it? Or strap lots to it in drybags? No. There are horses for those courses. But for my style this works well.

Voller Spannung auf den Rucksack gewartet mit all den guten Bewertungen im Hinterkopf..... Und als er da war, war ich mehr als enttäuscht.... Dünnes material, verschmutzt etc..... Nicht das was ich annähernd erwartet hatte. Rucksack ging zurück.
