Karrimor | translate:/Global/SiteRating: 3 | Rucksacks

The back system is a little different to others, with a thinner area in contact with the back, which can be a little awkward at first compared to wider mesh vents. The hip belt also flexes independently of the rest of the pack, which does allow for more comfort and movement in the hips, although it can sometimes stick into ...

Karrimor X-Lite 20

£50.00

Another pack lacking the extra pockets and strappy bits that you’d expect to find on a technical pack. Its streamlined build works well when you’re in full motion (for example, climbing a steep mountain path) as well as simply keeping everything tucked away together in one main pocket. The slim design means the pack sits tucked away in the middle ...

Karrimor X-Lite 35

£70.00

A slender shape, with a low-key back system and not too much in the way of padding. The more compressed padding here is decent enough, giving just enough cushioning whilst maintaining support. The slim, channeled back padding does help to keep sweat levels down, although not as much as some. After prolonged periods of carrying a heavy load, shoulder straps ...

Karrimor Airspace 35+5 2010

£70.00

Karrimor’s Airspace technology offers a good reason to opt for a ventilated back system. With very little of you in contact with the pack the Karrimor Airspace 35+5 is extremely comfortable, and it was best in our test at dealing with sweat. The articulated hipbelt really helped comfort and stability. But it felt heavier than it needed to be at ...

Karrimor Airspace 25 rucksack

£55.00

The Airspace is a neat, good-looking pack with a great back system that feels both cool and very stable. It also has an excellent harness, with well-shaped, breathable mesh straps. Zip-access makes it easy to get kit in and out of the main compartment and the large front pocket is just about big enough for a hat and gloves. Side ...

Karrimor Jaguar ST 75-95 2009

£200.00

The Jaguar has been a staple of the Karrimor range for decades, and its latest incarnation includes taped waterproof seams and an update to the classic Self Adjust (SA) back system. A highly waterproof pack is a real bonus for UK walking, and it will fit a wider range of back sizes than many on test. Design The new ...

KARRIMOR KODIAK 35

£50.00

Review: A superbly comfortable pack, even with a heavy load. The wind tunnel back system keeps the weight close to the back and stable, although we had to pack hard items carefully to stop them digging in. It has plenty of space with some useful pockets and a rain cover for the inevitable soaking.VITAL STATSCapacity: 35 litresMain compartment: Lid/drawcordBack system: ...

KARRIMOR X LITE 35

£65.00

Review: The X Lite offers a new take on the concave back system with two mesh panels stretched between the wearer and the pack rather than the usual single panel. It worked well and felt both cool and comfortable. A short, boxy pack but well-made and stable with any load. It has a good lid pocket and easy bottom access ...
