How to pack a backpack?

Put your bedding at the bottom. Put heavy gear (tent, camping stove, food) near the back. Pack your clothes around these items. The ground sheet can be placed under the flap and the tent beneath the pack if there is no space inside. Keep a rainproof jacket and fleece close at hand. Place small items for daily use (sun cream, map, glasses etc.) in the pockets. If carrying a hydration pack (water bladder), this should be placed in its special pocket along the back.

The Easyfit system

This patented system allows you to adjust your bag while on, with just a single movement, so that it fits your body shape: for maximum comfort.

How to adjust your Forclaz EasyFit backpack?

FIRST, LOOSEN all straps (shoulder straps, belt, load adjuster straps). PUT THE BACKPACK ON. PLACE THE BELT ON YOUR HIPS (it should cover your pelvic bones) and TIGHTEN. Then PULL THE EasyFit TOGGLE, the strap tank goes around your shoulders. Finally, ADJUST THE LOAD ADJUSTER STRAPS as needed.

Environmental measurements

Oxylane, together with Quechua, has decided to inform you of the environmental impact of its hiking backpacks over their entire lifespan. This work follows an experiment that began in July 2011 with the French Ministry of Ecology. Scores ranging from A to E were awarded based on comparisons between Quechua's backpacks only. Details on this project and the calculation methods used are available at

10-year technical partnership guarantee

The Strenfit component brand, Quechua's partner for researching and testing its components and assemblies, conducted tests simulating backpack aging. The tests focused on components, seams and the end product. The results enable Quechua and Strenfit to guarantee the tested bags for 10 years from the purchase date provide on the till receipt.

EasyFit effectiveness tests are carried out by our Research and Development teams

User-friendly design: adjustment time is 2.3 times shorter with EasyFit backpacks With the EasyFit system, you'll never have to backtrack. Plus, the EasyFit system does not affect the quality of the adjustments when compared with a standard adjustment system: EasyFit was rated significantly more comfortable on a 4% Friedman statistical test; users also noted better adjustments 6 times more often.

How is backpack volume measured?

The volume of each backpack is measured using a standardized method: we fill the main compartment as well as each pocket with little balls. Then we empty these balls into a graduated container, which gives the equivalent volume in gallons, with a margin of a few %.
The weight indicated is that of our benchmark sample. There may be slight variations.

Backpack technical tests.

Backpack components are approved in laboratory tests, including: fabric, buckles, webbing, foam, zippers, etc. Fabrics are tested for: resistance to wear, tearing, color-fastness under UV rays, washing, waterproofing. A final test on the finished product simulates the kind of treatment to which it will be subjected over several years, to assess the strength of the assembly: the backpack is weighted, then placed on a dummy which reproduces the movement of fast walking through thousands of cycles.

Product Testing

All our backpacks are tested in the field by users who represent the target market under conditions identical to those found in typical use. Our Field Test Missions team up our product managers with people not affiliated with QUECHUA to test, improve, and validate our products.

Care Instructions

To ensure materials retain their properties (especially waterproofing), we recommend you not to machine wash, tumble dry, dry clean, or bleach your backpack. Do not iron. To clean your backpack by hand, use warm soapy water and a brush if needed. After a few years of use, you should renew the water-repellent properties of the fabric by using a waterproofing spray.
