Historical publisher sample only; current production equivalence, stock and individual fit remain unverified. A complete CarryFacts specification record is not yet linked.

The arched back leaves no flat padded section for a laptop or tablet, so the reviewer characterized it as hiking-oriented. The reviewer tested the 24L Vaude Brenta on a sunny camping trip in Dorset, describing it as a generous day-sack size. The pack provides a large front mesh pocket, two side bottle pockets, an internal elasticated pocket, and lid storage with phone and zip compartments.

The hip strap includes an easily accessed zip pocket that comfortably accommodates items such as an action camera. After straightforward adjustment, the reviewer found the pack fitted perfectly and felt breathable during a sunny, steep Dorset hike.

Reported strengths

  • The Vaude Brenta uses 50% recycled polyester and has a PFC-free water-repellent finish, according to the review report.
  • The Vaude Brenta's Aeroflex 3D suspension system uses mesh to hold the main pack away from the wearer's back.
  • The pack provides a large front mesh pocket, two side bottle pockets, an internal elasticated pocket, and lid storage with phone and zip compartments.

Reported trade-offs

  • The reviewer found the side pockets difficult to reach while wearing the pack, despite appreciating the roomy waist-strap pocket.
  • The arched back leaves no flat padded section for a laptop or tablet, so the reviewer characterized it as hiking-oriented.
