Mero Mero · Aravis Backpack

A back that opens all the way, and a bag you build for each outing.

The roll-top on the Aravis sets the volume to suit the outing. Helmet net, straps, photo case, hip belt and dry bag all add on to the bag, each sold separately: you go skiing, shooting or hiking with the same bag.

Eiken's take

Why we chose it
The Mero Mero backpack for the mountains: 45 litres unrolled, a large opening at the back, and options to fit for anything from ski touring to photography.
Worth knowing
It weighs 1,400 g, more than twice the Squamish: for the office and the city, the Squamish is enough.
Who it's for
You switch between ski touring, photography and hiking, and want just one bag.

Colour

Cypress Green, Chai Tea or Dark Grey.

Mero Mero

Mero Mero, from Annecy to Vietnam.

Born in Annecy

Mero Mero is a French brand, born between lake and mountains. Its first bag, a messenger bag, was inspired by two children, Clémence and Léon. The brand is a member of 1% for the Planet and gives 1% of its turnover to environmental organisations.

Sewn in Vietnam

Since late 2018, manufacturing has been in Vietnam, with a partner specialised in technical stitching: paragliding canopies, harnesses, backpacks. The factory is ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified and passes the WRAP audit every year.

Repaired in France

The brand plans for repair from the design stage and works with workshops in France, in Annecy and Lyon.

Questions

What comes with the bag, and what is sold separately?

The bag comes with the roll-top, the back access, the front pocket, the sternum strap with whistle and the inside pockets. The hip belt, photo case, dry bag, straps and helmet net are bought separately, each with its own product page.

Is the Aravis waterproof?

No. The fabric is PU-coated (2000 mm) and water-repellent, PFC-free: it stands up to rain. To keep sensitive kit dry, the Aravis has its own 25 L dry bag, sold separately.

Will it take a camera, a DSLR and lenses?

Yes, with the photo case, sold separately: six removable dividers for the DSLR, lenses and drone. It slides into the bag and you reach it through the back opening.

Can I attach touring skis?

Yes, with the straps, sold separately: they fix to the bag's attachment points on the front, the sides or underneath. The helmet net, also sold separately, clips onto the front.

Will it take a laptop?

Yes, the padded front pocket is designed for a laptop. Its maximum size is not given: measure your laptop before ordering.

Aravis or Squamish V3?

Same family. The Aravis goes from 25 to 45 litres, opens from the back and weighs 1,400 g; you build it up with options. The Squamish V3 goes from 20 to 40 litres, weighs 600 g and takes a 17-inch laptop in a separate pocket: it is enough for the city and the office.

What does the guarantee cover?

The 2-year legal guarantee goes through Eiken. Beyond that, up to 10 years against manufacturing defects and abnormal wear, you contact Mero Mero directly. Zips are covered for 2 years.
