Mammut Creon Classic (2011)

£75.00

From the outside, it looks like a simple pack and there aren’t too many straps and flappy bits to get in the way. Even the bottle pockets have zips to tidy away and secure your water – bad news for Duke of Edinburgh hikers, with their flapping tin cups et al, but good news for everybody else who doesn’t like ...

Deuter Futura 32 (2011)

£85.00

The hip pads are great – supportive all the way around to the front and shaped to offer maximum comfort. The pull-together waist adjustment is great for getting a snug fit, too. The shoulder straps are also well-padded with a dimpled face fabric to help draw away moisture. The Air Comfort back system does allow air to circulate around well, ...

Osprey Atmos 35 (2011)

£100.00

A cracking pack from Osprey with a technical feel to it and a lot of different fabrics used throughout. The main compartment is huge and access to it is good – through a zip opening with some pleasingly large zip-pulls. The zip entry may not be for everyone as there is a slight increase in the chance of getting water ...

The North Face Terra 35 (2011)

£105.00

One of the few packs to use a padded, channelled back system, and it’s one of the best. Although warmer than mesh systems, the channels do help keep the centre of gravity close to the body, making this more stable for those looking to move a bit quicker or even scramble. It also keeps the weight down. There is a ...

Berghaus Freeflow 35+8 (2011)

£80.00

A great pack for all-round walking, with an extra eight litres of expandable capacity for when you need to carry a bit more kit. The Freeflow back system is excellent, with minimal contact across the majority of the back and excellent padding in areas where it’s needed (hips and shoulders). The padding around the waistbelt is solid enough, and extends ...

Lowe Alpine Airzone Centro 35+10 (2011)

£100.00

This is an excellent, technical pack with lots of features common to larger packs. In fact it will work well for overnight trips too, with its expandable 10 litres of extra capacity. The floating lid can be adjusted to hold more in the main compartment, and there are plenty of compression straps to expand or contract the pack as necessary. ...

Vaude Brenta 35 (2011)

£80.00

The adjustable back system has to be the biggest draw for this pack, being one of the simplest to adjust and allowing you to customise the fit. The real benefit comes from the ability to customise the amount of curve in the suspended mesh back system. Two small tabs are all it takes and so the pack can be adjusted ...

Regatta Adventure Tech 35 (2011)

£50.00

A basic-looking pack with all the usual features you would hope to find on a 35-litre pack, but at a more reasonable price. You get a suspended mesh back system, hydration pack-compatibility, a rain cover and somewhere to store your poles. What does suffer, however, is a little reassurance in the quality stakes. The fabric used does feel noticeably thinner ...

Blacks Alpine 30+5 (2011)

£35.00

No award-winner but a fairly capable pack for the price. There are a few technical features that you’d expect to find in a decent walking pack, albeit not quite as well executed as on more expensive bags. A padded back system does boost comfort and keep the load tight to your back, but has no venting at all which does ...

Karrimor Airspace 35+5 (2011)

£75.00

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 ...

Gregory Jade 35 (2011)

£94.00

A really comfortable pack with plenty of space for extra kit. It’s got lightweight, flexible and padded hip fins and shoulder straps, and the load is distributed easily across the hips. It’s also got a suspended mesh back system with padded lumbar support so that load-carrying is comfortable and sweat-free. The main compartment is really big, with a zipped panel ...

Osprey Aura 35 (2011)

£100.00

One of the most comfortable women’s daypacks around, with a soft mesh hip belt and nicely rounded shoulder straps. The lightweight frame provides excellent load-carrying support, and the suspended mesh back system stops you getting sweaty. Inside, this pack is cavernous, with plenty of space for everything you’ll need on a long winter walk. The main compartment has a wide, ...

Deuter Futura Pro 34 SL (2011)

£100.00

Lots of padding on the hip fins and shoulder straps means the Futura Pro really excels at carrying lots of heavy winter kit. On the downside, it actually makes the pack quite heavy in itself. However, the hip fins and lumbar support hug the hips beautifully, keeping the load stable, comfortable, and distributed evenly across the hips. Pull-forward adjustment allows ...

Lowe Alpine Airzone Centro ND35 (2011)

£100.00

A classic walking pack that’s durable, comfortable, and carries loads with ease. There’s slightly less room in the main compartment than some, but there’s a large expansion pocket on the front (perfect for carrying waterproofs), and a really useful zip pocket for storing kit you want quick access to. The lid pockets are on the small side, though. It’s got ...

Euro Hike Hydro 35+5 (2011)

£40.00

One of the cheaper models and as a result doesn’t have the technical features of others. The back system uses simple padding that does keep the load close to your centre of gravity, but doesn’t allow air to circulate and so quickly leads to a sweaty and uncomfortable back. Also it isn’t very well protected and you have to be ...

Rohan Stravaig 35 (2011)

£85.00

A less-ventilated pack than some, with a channelled back rather than suspended mesh. The benefit of a channelled back system is that it keeps the load very close to your centre of gravity so that even heavy loads feel stable. The obvious downside is that you don’t get the airflow offered by suspended mesh back systems. There’s plenty of padding ...
