Heimplanet Motion Ellipse 25L Backpack | Dark Grey / Green Review

Whether you’re heading out for a dawn-to-dusk hike or navigating foreign cities, the Heimplanet Motion ELLIPSE 25L Backpack is a spacious yet streamlined option for days spent adventuring far from home. It’s got a sleek and stylish look that might betray its penchant for technical trails and rugged environments. The main compartment is easy to access with a front panel opening, and with 25L of storage it boasts more than enough room for layers, gear, snack, and other belongings when you’re returning to a hotel or campsite that night. For commutes and work trips you’ve got a handy 15inch laptop sleeve that securely carries a laptop or tablet, then becomes a 3L hydration bladder when weekends hits and it’s time to escape to wild places. Key to this pack is its large stretchy outer pocket. You’ll have lots of quick-access storage for water bottles, rain jackets, and anything else you might need on your travels, with easy compression straps that cinch the load in tight for easier carrying. Throughout the pack you’ll find hidden gear loops that let you lash your equipment on the pack, but don’t stand out when not in use. Finally, the special 3D patterning on the back panel and shoulder straps provides a comfortable carry by reducing contact area, increasing air flow, and ensuring soft cushioning as you explore further in the town or country.
