Naturehike 65L Internal Frame Hiking Backpack for Outdoor Camping Travel Backpacking, Ultralight Backpack for Adults

I've been using my Naturehike 65L for almost one year, including this winter and given how lightweight, comfortable and affordable it is? I couldn't be happier! It's a bag and a frame without the weight of extra add-ons, I don't want. It's very durable and easy to use. I had to tie in extensions to the existing cords to hold my air mattress on top but that has been my only problem. Although gear-snobs in the U.S. usually prefer much higher-priced packs, this Naturehike 65L is easily the best selling backpack by far, all over Europe! It's an excellent value.

I'm 6'2" 280lb. I loaded the ever loving crap out of this thing (40 pounds) on a recent backpacking trip. I swung it over my shoulder by one strap a bunch, and threw it around, trying to test the durability of the sewing and fabric. So far nothing has come even close to tearing or even stretching at the seams of the straps or body of the bag. It was very comfortable. The only thing that failed was a a pull loop on one of the top cinch straps, but I just tied a knot and it worked the same, like I said I'm rough on things. Like others say, the frame does squeak a bit sometimes, not all the time though, and it does not bother me. And as far as the frame goes, it is actually really well designed. It is technically internal, but it carries like an external frame bag, and the back support acts like a good mesh. I ordered the z packs arc light haul, and I didn't care for it enough to have spent 400 dollars on it, so I ordered this one just for gits and shiggles, and I sent back the arc haul the next day after receiving this. The arc haul has all these tiny straps all over every thing, and whereas that does save weight, my meat hands couldn't readily operate them. The belt strap on the arc haul is made of these tiny straps, and they dug into my belly. Also the arc haul just seems fragile at all the seams because of the material used. I am a meat head and I would have broken it within a week I'm sure. If I break the nature hike, it was $100, so no harm really, but it seems more sturdy to me with a negligible weight penalty. The zip version of the arc haul does seem awesome, I despise digging in a bag, I would love to be able to open it from the front. It would be cool if nature hike would make a zip for sure, but this thing is old standby material as is. You can not beat the value.

This thing is a tank. Well worth the money. Solid quality. I started low, then added weight to test it. I'm a big guy at six foot four, it fits comfortably with weight up to fifty pounds. No material ripping, stitches breaking, etc. It's just a great pack at a great price.

First impressions are very good. Bag holds a lot for its size. Outside mesh is great for a "stash spot" for the things you might take on/off like rain jacket if it's on and off. Or things you want easy access to throughout the day. I am probably testing its limit, but that mesh holds a LOT. The inside is one large area, so plan your packing strategically. Very comfortable, I've only hiked about 10 miles with it, but had it loaded way up and clocking in around 32lbs, not the bag's fault - I overpacked. I mention it only to say even at that weight, it wore well. Hip belt pockets are a nice feature and I really like the side pockets for water bottles. My chief concern is durability. It comes with these cool little "straps" that enable you affix something like a chair, a small tent, etc. rolled and on the top outside of the bag. The straps are like paracord and have a pull loop to cinch it tight once you clip the straps. It works very well, but on my third time using it the "loop" pulled apart. I "fixed it" by tying the now-loose end into a loop with a bowline. It's suitable but I would actually suggest the maker do the same (use a bowline) and THEN seal that with the "heat shrink" that's used to make it look nice. It is still 100% functional and I think my repair is actually more durable than the original manufacturing but it's made me nervous about the bag and what other "little things" might start to fray with limited use. I am happy for the size and weight at this price point. It's about 4lbs lighter as a bag than my prior 65L pack and holds every single piece of gear that was in my 65L pack. I'm not an ultralight hiker or a long haul hiker, but I wanted something that would enable me to "gut out" a 5-10 day distance hike someday while lugging along some creature comforts like a larger tent and a camp chair. This thing hits that mark and that means it'll also be great if/when I start to really shave out the big ounces.

Been backpacking off and on for a decade and needed something lighter. I haven’t had a chance to bring this one out yet but so far I think it’ll do the trick, it is basically a big sack with thin frame so there’s not much to go wrong. Just don’t fill it up with really heavy items because this doesn’t have the luxurious frame you’d get for $400, but if you have a lightweight setup this 2.5lb pack will be perfect for you. To give you an idea of the size I can easily slide in my foam sleeping pad vertically inside and place my tent, little wood Solo Stove lite, air sleeping pad, sleeping bag, trekking poles, all inside. That’s not how I’ll actually pack it but just wanted to gauge the space. I’m “6’2” and 180lbs and the hip belt rests nicely on my waist. I’ve heard of reviews saying the straps aren’t great but I will update this review after I’ve hiked a few hours in it, but so far it feels as comfortable as my other pack. For $109 you won’t find anything else this light and functional. If you want a luxurious bag with tons of pockets then spend $250+. I find all the extra pockets on other bags just make me lose things and become disorganized.

For the money this is simply the best back pack you can buy for the money period. It’s light yet strong. Hold lots of items easily. The materials feel top notch. Only issue I could see is it may be a bit hor on your back. However the. Again what backpack is not hot when your hiking in hot weather. Time well tell.

I was so excited to receive this backpack; all the Naturehike products I’ve purchased in the past have been excellent. The two sleeping bags I own, plus the Mongar tent, are all incredible for the price point. Unfortunately, while I was testing the backpack out (loaded with water bottles to test if it would be comfortable for thru hiking), one of the zippers on the hip pockets ripped off. I tried to reattach it, but it likely can’t be fixed without some kind of tool. I was conflicted on whether to keep it anyway, because I love all the other features, but ultimately decided to return it. It was probably an error in production. The rest of the components are very solid. Customer service reached out and solved promptly solved the issue. These guys do a great job!

Find a pack that does what this one does for double the price let alone at the price of this. Plenty big enough for a week but rolls down for smaller carries. I have had this a year and have had minimal complaints. Mine carries well on my normal 5'9" body. The side pockets can be a bit tough to reach to put a bottle back into, but they all are.

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.

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.

Der Rucksack ist gut verarbeitet und bietet viele flexibel und sinnvoll nutzbare Außentaschen (zwei an der Seite, eine für eine 0,5 Liter Flasche am Schulterriemen, zwei am Hüftgurt und eine große auf der Rückseite). Durch das Rolltop ist er vom Volumen her gut regulierbar. Er lässt sich zudem an den Seiten komprimieren und macht daher auch mit nicht voller Ausnutzung des Volumens eine "gute Figur" (manche Rucksäcke hängen da wie nasse Säcke am Rücken). Daher ist er auch für ausgedehnte Tagestouren mit etwas mehr Gepäck geeignet. Hüft- und Brustgurt und Regenhülle sind obligatorisch. Die Schulterriemen sind dick gepolstert und daher sehr bequem. Trotz Tragesystem ist der Rucksack noch relativ leicht. Die Rückenlänge ist nicht anpassbar und muss daher passen (ausprobieren!). Für meinen Rücken mit meinen 1,82m passt das gut. Das mit 60+5 Liter angegebene Volumen finde ich etwas optimistisch und wird wohl nur unter Ausnutzung aller Außentaschen erreicht. Ich hätte mir ehrlicherweise ein etwas größeres Hauptfach gewünscht. Wenn man nicht mit extrem kompaktem Schlafsack, Isomatte und Zelt unterwegs ist, wird es auf Trekkingtouren mit Zeltübernachtung schon recht knapp. Bei normalen, mehrtägigen Hüttentouren kommt man aber gut zurecht. Ein Schnäppchen ist dieser Rucksack auf den ersten Blick nicht, wenn man ihn aber den etablierten Marken gegenüberstellt, ist er doch eine preisgünstigere Alternative. Auch wenn ich mir ein etwas größeres Hauptfach erhofft hätte, behalte ich den Rucksack, weil er in Summe doch ein für mich gutes Angebot darstellt. Wer einen mittelgroßen Trekkingrucksack sucht, der gut verarbeitet und sinnvoll ausgestattet ist und wem das Markenimage egal ist, bekommt einen Rucksack mit einem guten Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis.

Light pack but not everything works out. The main body design is great. The stitching seemed good but it's not a tank of a pack either so I was loading it up to test but also being careful. Ended up testing it with about 33lbs. Pros: Good supportive foam on the back. The side and back pockets are great and each side easily holds a couple of smart water bottles while the back outside pocket is very roomy. The hip belt is nice with the pockets and can be tightened easily. The shoulder straps have decent foam and the pocket is perfect for bear spray or a phone. The weight was accurate at 1160g but that wasn't including the raincover (60g approx) Definitely was a little bigger than my Teton scout 3400 (55l) pack and better to load. Cons The one size fits all just doesn't work for a pack of this size. It was pretty close but my main issue (for which I will return it) is that the load lifters are too close to the top of the straps so they don't do anything and as a result the straps pushed into my upper back a few inches out from my spine on either side (circled in red). On the Teton scout the straps curve down (blue arrow) and then are supported by the load lifters. I also wonder about the long term wear on the foam and the stitching. You can't access the frame or get to any of the key seams if you needed to repair something. Overall it's a nice pack if it works for you and the price is great. But because of the lack of adjustment it may end up working for only a fraction of those that buy it.

Très bon sac au dos, bon qualité!
