Detailed Review
Material
So this pack is made from a 600D polyester material with a waterproof coating. The build quality of this pack is very well thought out. It feels solid and durable in your hands. Our outdoors tests also show this to be true.
It took a beating during our brush test with lots of branches and prickly brush. Nary a scratch on it after several long hikes through heavy brush.
The YKK zipper quality is very good and it works effortlessly and doesn’t pinch up like other cheaper zippers. As well, Mardington uses Bar Tack reinforced stitching on the stress points for added strength and durability.
Despite being a 65+ liter capacity this pack is not that heavy.
External and Internal Space
There is a bottom compartment in this pack which has plenty of space. You can put your sleeping bag in it and still have room for some extra items.
On the front there is an external pouch for keeping a few small items.
The main compartment of this pack comes with a drawstring and expansion collar. In the main compartment, you get long wide open chamber to keep all your stuff.
The main compartment of the bag can be reached by a front and a bottom mounted zipper for easier access.
And also the main compartment has key tabs to either hold your keys or hydration equipment/hose.
The main compartment also has a hydration frame to put your hydration pack.
This pack has a lot of compression straps on it to help you make it smaller once all your items are packed in.
Last but not the least, this pack has two removable side pockets to keep your navigation gear, water bottles, and snacks/energy bars or any or small items you want access to without having to take the entire pack off.
Comfort and Padding
This pack comes with an adjustable suspension system to adjust your straps and an ample amount of mesh and padded areas along the back for proper ventilation.
One of my favorite features is the 8 stage Torso height adjustment.
The S-shape shoulder and Hip Belt straps of this pack are well padded. The Shoulder straps also contain D Loops for added connections.
In our tests, we were able to easily carry this pack for hours without hurting our back and/or shoulders. The padding on the back of this pack is also very good and comfortable.
Additional Key Points
This backpack comes with plenty Molle webbing which makes it even more travel friendly.
On the external Molle webbing you can attach a lots of things. This pack also comes with 65+10 Liter capacity. Mardingtop makes a few other models in a 50L, 60L and even a 75L. But for us, this Mardingtop 65+10L backpack is the sweet spot.
This pack comes in 10 different colors so you can match it to just about any gear you may already have.
And last but not least, it comes at a cost of just under $100. Which gives this hiking backpack a really solid price to performance ratio.
