Norfin Alpika 60 60 L

W-1 takes the call

The W-1 suspension system, consisting of an aluminium frame and anatomical straps, is responsible for the comfort of wearing a backpack. There is a possibility of vertical movement along the guides to adjust to the user's height. And the straps themselves are adjustable in length and height. at the same time, they are wide and soft enough to comfortably hold even heavy weights without bumping into the shoulders, and are equipped with additional fasteners for hanging various tools on carabiners. Complementing this system is a detachable weight belt with pockets that distributes weight from the waist to the hips. In general, a standard and time-tested suspension, without any frills. Nevertheless, it quite reliably withstands even fully filled 60 liters of volume and attachments.

triple entry

An unusual solution (although very convenient) is the presence of three entrances to the main compartment of the backpack. They are located above (under the removable valve), below and on the side. Those. You can extract any item without disassembling all the contents. Also, the main compartment is divided into two independent ones using a special fabric insert. There are also additional pockets: two front pockets (a small one with a zipper and a large one with a fastex lock), two mesh pockets on the sides and two more in the flap.

Belts and rubber bands

Unlike most hiking backpacks that use only straps, this model has as many of them as rubber ties and mounts for attachments. For example, tightening is done with elastic bands, and side fastenings are represented by belts. And the chest strap is generally combined, i.e. consists of a sling and an elastic band. On the one hand, this reduces the cost of the backpack and makes it easier to use, but on the other hand, the straps are more durable and strong. Elastic bands with push-button latches quite often tear and unravel.

Norfin Alpika 60 is a classic hiking backpack. Quite versatile and relatively inexpensive.
