Waterproof, ultralight and packable rucksack
With features and specs that surpass most premium technical packs, let alone those in the ultralight and packable class, Matador’s FreeRain28 is the most capable packable backpack on the market. Tipping the scales at 350 g and with a packed size of just 14 x 10 cm, it is incredibly lightweight and portable too – making it the ideal daysack for adventurous travellers or a great summit pack for fast and light mountain missions. There’s no need to worry about the weather either – the FreeRain28 is completely waterproof thanks to UTS coating, sealed seams, and its rolltop closure.
