Nothing could be worse than wearing a heavy, overloaded backpack! A backpacker's best friend is his pack. You will be walking for many hours with your backpack bound to your back. It is therefore essential that you choose your equipment carefully to keep the weight down and travel with as light a load as possible. Look out for modular clothing items that can be used for as many different functions as possible. The aim: having clothing that is suited to multiple situations or multiple climates.

Preferably choose fabrics made of natural materials such as cotton or wool that will delay the emergence of odours. They are anti-bacterial and prevent unpleasant odours from developing as a result of your perspiration.

When backpacking, what could be worse than losing your passport or getting your phone stolen? In order to avoid this risk and give you peace of mind during your travel experience, we have hidden a secure pocket in the shirt for keeping your belongings in a safe place.

When preparing your backpack, you always wonder whether the clothing you have packed will measure up to your adventures and whether it is strong enough! The materials and assemblies have been specifically chosen for their strength so that we can guarantee their durability. For example, we have opted for a ripstop woven fabric: i.e. it is reinforced by a chequered weave pattern. What's more, the fabric is heavier (137g/m²) and therefore stronger than a conventional shirt (115g/m²)

The product's environmental impact is calculated over its entire life cycle using various indicators. A score from A to E is provided in order to easily identify the most eco-friendly products by comparing products of the same type (T-shirts, trousers, backpacks). Decathlon actively promotes this environmental rating initiative. Web: sustainability.decathlon.com
