Exped Splash 15 Rucksack

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

An Incredibly lightweight, packable, waterproof rucksack.

Exped says:

Waterproof UL conversion artist, which is subjected to a visual makeover and comes new with recycled fabrics. For the weight of a bar of chocolate, you get a waterproof roll-top pack that can be worn as a soft backpack or shoulder bag using the simple shoulder straps. Originally designed as a drypack for river swimming, the Splash 15 is the emergency backpack in mini format par excellence and should be part of your luggage.

Our Verdict

A nice bit of “piece of mind” gear that, although I can’t see getting a lot of use out on the trail, I still think is a fantastic item to have on you, whenever you are on the go and potentially need some instant weather protection. The bag can then easily be stashed away, when not in use.
