Outlet 😍 Forclaz Travel 500, 70 L Hiking 🎒 Backpack, 👩 Women’s 🥰

A bag designed to best meet the needs of backpackers, with large full opening on the back of the rucksack, lockable compartments and removable shoulder bag.

Our backpacker-designers have created this backpack for traveling the world on foot for several weeks with complete peace of mind

How to fill my bag for optimal comfort?

Put your bedding at the bottom. Near your back, place heavy equipment (tent, stove, food). Pack your clothes around these items. The groundsheet can be placed under the flap; the tent under the bag if there’s no space inside. Keep a waterproof jacket and fleece to hand. In the pockets, place small items for the day (sunscreen, map, glasses…). The water bladder can be placed in the compartment generally provided down the back.

The Easyfit system

This patented system allows you to adjust your bag to best suit your body shape intuitively, in a single move, while wearing it: for maximum comfort.

How to adjust your backpack?

To begin, LOOSEN all the straps (shoulder, waist and load adjuster straps).
Then put on the bag then PLACE THE BELT ON YOUR HIPS (it must cover the iliac bones on the pelvis) to TIGHTEN IT.
Then, PULL the EasyFit PULLS, the strap block will surround your shoulders.
Finally, adjust the LOAD ADJUSTER STRAPS for perfect fit of the bag.

Tests carried out by our Research and Development departments on the efficiency of the EasyFit system

Ease of design: effective adjustment time 2.3 times shorter with the Easyfit backpack; and number of times you have to readjust = 0 for the Easyfit bag. Does not affect the quality of adjustment compared to a bag with standard adjustment: EasyFit was rated significantly more comfortable in the Friedmann statistical test, 4%; with 6 times as many backpacks correctly adjusted.

How is backpack volume measured?

The volume of each backpack is measured using a standardized method: we fill the main compartment as well as each pocket with little balls. Then we empty the balls into a graduated container, which gives us the equivalent volume in liters, with a tolerance of a few percent.
The empty weight shown is that of our reference sample. There may be slight variations.

A score for comparing the products’ environmental impact

The product’s environmental impacts are calculated over its entire lifecycle using different indicators. An overall ABCDE rating is given to help you easily identify products with the best environmental performance by comparing and contrasting products of the same type (T-shirts, pants, backpacks, etc.).
Decathlon actively promotes this environmental rating initiative.
