The Norwegian company Bergans is a well-known manufacturer of quality outdoor equipment and clothing, the portfolio of which also includes this ultralight Vaagaa backpack. Due to its volume, it is especially suitable for one-day trips. It is practical for everyday use and is also designed for both men and women.
At first glance, the clean and minimalist appearance of this backpack will attract you. The backpack offers easy access to the contents stored inside thanks to the unique "trizip" storage system. You can organize your essentials inside in different ways thanks to the number of pockets and cleverly designed storage spaces.
The practical pockets of this backpack include two external open pockets that close with a snap and have folds for expansion when storing larger items. The side pockets can fit a large water bottle. We also have an inner mesh pocket with a key hook, an outer pocket on the lid, pockets on the waist belt and finally an inner zippered pouch that can fit a laptop or a hydration system.
An important part of this backpack, which increases the comfort of each carrier, is the so-called Wishbone Steel frame, which is a structure that provides firm support to the back in the vertical direction. The (removable) waist belt of the backpack, which moves with your body and has an ergonomic shape, also helps with comfort. The backpack also uses Bergans QuickAdjust II technology to adjust the height of the torso with a floating vertical adjustment.
The individual materials and components used in the production of this backpack are bluesign certified, which means guaranteed safe use of chemicals in production. Which is another argument for choosing this quality, universal and highly functional outdoor backpack.
In the production of the Bergans Vaagaa backpack, recycled materials were used to a large extent. 100% recycled polyester is reinforced with Cordura 305D material. Another advantage is the water-repellent treatment without the content of harmful PFAS substances, which are otherwise gradually released and contaminate the environment.
