Klättermusen · Gilling Backpack 20L

Gilling 20L: a day's walking, nothing you don't need.

The Gilling 20L opens from the top with a zip, keeps the wet jacket in its stretch front pocket, the water bottle in a stretch side pocket and the poles down the side. The back panel is ventilated for steep climbs. The rest, you leave at home.

Hiking · Day out · Fast hiking

The day's loop, the pass there and back, the approach to an easy summit.

The name is thought to come from Gillingr, a giant of the Edda, father of Suttungr. From the Edda.

In the rain · over 1,500 mm

It takes a shower, not a day of rain.

Lightly water repellent

300 mm

Drizzle, or brushing past wet branches.

Shower

1,500 mm

A shower on the trail or in town.

Waterproof fabric

10,000 mm and above

Proper rain: the fabric holds, the seams are not taped.

Waterproof

taped seams

Rated waterproof: seams covered with tape.

For a whole day in the rain, take a rain cover: the seams and the zip let water through in the end.

The details

The jacket up front, the zip on top, a bar on the hip belt.

Repair rather than replace

Klättermusen repairs zips, seams and buckles. Outside the guarantee the service is paid, on quotation; Eiken passes the request on.

Care

Empty it and let it dry after the outing, hand wash with a mild soap, reproof if needed.

Eiken's take

Our pick
A 20-litre hiking pack that does not try to be anything else: top opening, front pocket for the wet layer, ventilated back panel, hip belt with a pocket.
Worth knowing
The fabric is thin (70 denier): it keeps the pack light but does not like rubbing against rock.
Who it's for
Day walkers, with water, a packed lunch and a jacket, no more.

Baptiste, Eiken

Questions

What about rain?

A shower, yes: the fabric holds over 1,500 mm of water. For a day in the rain, take a rain cover.

Where do the poles go?

Down the side, in the pole carry. The side cords hold them in place.

Gilling 20L or Skrymner 20L?

Same fabric, same volume. The Skrymner wears like a vest, to run or walk fast. The Gilling has a ventilated back panel and a hip belt with a pocket, to walk all day.

Care

Hand wash at up to 40 °C with a mild soap. No bleach, no tumble dryer, no iron, no dry cleaning.
