A seriously good backpack

A mountaineer is only as good as his provisions and a researcher only as good as her equipment. With our new Eon backpack, the supplies and tools of our little big expedition leaders are guaranteed to stay dry – come what may.

But the Eon is not only completely waterproof: it is also practically indestructible: We use textile fibers that are up to 15 times stronger than steel. This makes it a loyal companion, whether for day trips, days of hiking from mountain hut to hut, or the urban jungle. The chest strap has a safety buckle that pops open under heavy load.

The roll top is very easy to open and the inner lining can be pulled out easily for cleaning or to use as a sit pad in the forest. The completely reflective drawcords provide visibility in the twilight and at the same time help to compress the rucksack when the provisions have been polished off. And should your sweater get wet, it can be easily strapped on and transported outside the backpack. The water bottle also fits comfortably in the side pocket and can be fixed with an additional elastic band – so it is always at hand yet safely stowed away. Because the Eon is completely waterproof, all collected treasures and clothes can survive several hours of hiking in the rain or river crossings, which end up much as the parents had envisioned: a soggy (but happy) mess.
