Firecrest 28

Sac très light mais déçu par la durabilité du sac.
Accessoires de portage fournis et utilisés normalement, comme sur les photos, pour quelques sorties cet hiver, et malheureusement des traces d'usure sont très vite apparues et ont provoqué un petit trou. Abrasion des skis sur la matière du sac lors du portage.

This thing rocks. Awesome for light duty ski touring and pulling double duty as a travel backpack.

I just finished up a spring trip to Japan and this was my only bag for city walking and some light hiking. The storable hip belt, side access zipper, and roll top is a really unique set of features that makes this bag perfect for this use case. The straps stored and bag compressed works great as a day bag because of how light weight the pack is, and with the availability of the hip belt, I could carry all of my equipment comfortably and have a stable bag for hiking. The side zip also allowed my travel buddy to easily find stuff in the main compartment of the bag and jam souvenirs in it. The strap pockets were also a nice addition as I could use my flexible water bottle on hikes while carrying my transit card and sunglasses in a super easily accessible location walking around cities. The brain pocket was excellent for storing toiletries, electronics as well. And with the underside pocket I was able to store my passport and medical supplies easily. There is a surprising amount of storage here with the roll top.

Absolutely no complaints, banger product for an activity it wasn't necessarily designed for. Looking forward to getting out on skis with it next winter!

Ich dachte eigentlich, ich hätte meinen idealen Rucksack gefunden. Leider kann die Qualität überhaupt nicht mithalten. Wie bei einem Vorredner bereits nach zweimaligem Skitragen Löcher im Stoff und eine Gurtöse aufgerieben. Über den Händler wurde die Reklamation mit dem Argument, dafür sei er nicht gemacht, abgelehnt. Komisch, daß das in den Produkfotos auf dieser Seite genauso angepriesen wird. Da fühlt man sich nicht ernst genommen.

Ive been using this pack as daypack for alpine climbing and iceclimbing. It has a great size for common day tours and is easy to pack. Its also pretty robust, which makes it great for alpine and mixed tours through chimneys and stuff.
Im just a bit curious about the weight, as i also got the Stache Ice 50 and its lighter than the firecrest? Maybe it could be made even lighter.
And a strap for hauling would also be good.

Bought the bag in early 2025, did two ski touring outings where skis had to be carried on the bag part of the way, using the buckles/straps provided for this function.

The result is a big tear in the fabric, see pictures, and a bag that is now to be binned.

Truth is, the fabric is not resistant enough from the skis rubbing on the bag. The bag is supposed to be designed so that skis can be carried on it, but if you do so, your bag will be done for.

So, about a useless bag.
