KNOW WHAT YOU’RE BUYING

The table below is designed to help you understand where Montane products are made and what they are made from. Lower impact materials have a reduced environmental footprint and increased traceability via third party accreditations. For example recycled content, Responsible Down Standard certified down, and branded yarns like Tencel ™. Where a product uses a DWR you can easily see whether this uses potentially harmful chemistry (PFCs).

    Almost perfect

    Just finished Wainright’s Coasr to Coast using this bag. Very comfortable and can take a tent, sleeping gear, a cooking system, spare clothes and food. The older model doesn’t have the vertical zip for the front pocket, or the zip to access the main compartment, but this wasn’t an issue.

    Best Bag!

    Best bag I've brought for work and leading in the hills/mountains. The bag fits so comfortably and at such a good price.

    The side pockets are so easily accessible and handy.

    The pockets on the shoulder straps are stretchy for larger phones and compasses.

    The bag is so much bigger than I imagined and so useful with groups and spare kit for others. Best purchase of kit I've made in a long time!!

    Montane Trailblazer® 44L Backpack

    I've not used it yet so can't comment on that front. However, my initial comments are that the design has improved from version 1 with larger side stash pockets and the ability to use a Flexi flask on both shoulder straps. I am initially concerned about packing the bag and catching the internal strap that holds the bag together for use of the zip entries. I like the improved side compression straps to reduce volume but the back construction limited the height volume adjustment. The ability to the bag to fit different sized people seems good once I'd fiddled with all the adjustment possibilities. This also means my husband could potentially use the bag. It would be nice to have brighter colours available. I'm going to be using the sack for long distance GR routes, probably starting with HRP in September. But may do the GR221 or similar routes to test the bag prior to that. I look forward to using it.
