What is the Symbium concept?
The Symbium concept is based on optimizing the structure of the waistbelt and shoulder straps. This helps reduce the swinging effects of the backpack that tire the trekker.
How was this 50L trekking bag built?
The Symbium trekking bag is built to stand the test of time:
- Resistant main material, also added to the side and front pockets, which are the most subject to wear and tear.
- The assembly of the various parts of this bag has been tested to withstand high stresses, especially once it is filled, or to be handled repeatedly.
- Thickness of zip redesigned to improve its robustness and resistance to time.
- Repairable bag: spare parts available.
Why a wooden frame on this trekking backpack?
The construction of these wooden bars is stronger than traditional aluminum bars. They are resistant to humidity thanks to an exterior varnish.
Is this 50L trekking backpack repairable?
The MT900 Symbium bag is ultra-tough, but not eternal. That's why we've developed a range of spare parts to extend its lifespan:
- Shoulder straps
- Waist belt
- Waist belt foam pad
- Elastics
- Buckles
- Rain cover
