"Superb backpack, well made and perfect for family days out or for long weekends away." Dan Smith
Meet the Fortitude 40, our rugged yet beautifully built adventure backpack. Made from tough, durable and water resistant 1680D oxford, it's packed with features, it looks great, and it's extremely comfortable to carry!
It has nearly 40 litres of capacity and features a large main compartment, with lockable zips. The main compartment can be folded open to get good access for packing clothes and belongings tidily.
Inside the main compartment is a laptop sleeve pocket that can accommodate most 17" laptops. In front there are 3 additional pockets. At the top a fleece lined pocket with horizontal zip, perfect for keeping mobile phones or sunglasses safe. Below that the pack has a large organiser pocket, again with lockable zips, and compartments galore to keep pens, phones, documents, tablet or a smaller laptop secure and protected. In front of this there is a further document pocket with horizontal zip. To the side there is an elasticated water bottle holder with plenty of room for a 10cm diameter water bottle.
Beyond the array of storage options, the fortitude travel bag has many other useful features. At the front there are 2 rows of MOLLE / PALS compatible webbing (2 * 8 grid), with a D-ring just above. There are 4 compression straps on the sides, which can also be used for attaching kit, such as roll matts or rod tubes. To the front there is another compression strap which again doubles up as an attachment point, perfect for strapping a jacket to when on the move. There are 2 grab handles, one to the side and one on top of the backpack. Additionally there are 2 more D-rings and a removable carry strap, allowing the bag to be carried as a shoulder bag / duffel.
To the rear the Fortitude adventure bag has padded and adjustable shoulder straps, each with 2 D-rings for connectivity, and an adjustable sternum strap. The back panel is padded with an air flow region between the shoulder blades, which will help to keep you cool when on the move. The adjustable waist support strap includes another 2 pockets for easy access to small items such as money or payment cards. Towards the base there are 2 webbing points which can be used in conjunction with the front D-ring or MOLLE grid to attach heavier items (such as a tent) to the bottom of the bag, using strapping (not included).
The shoulder straps, sternum strap and waist straps can be tucked away when you are stowing your Fortitude bag, or want to use it as a shoulder bag / duffel. There is a rollaway system that allows the backpack part of the bag to be covered and zipped up, ideal for keeping it from getting caught up when putting in overhead storage on an airplane.

Just returned from an expedition into the Amazonian jungle in Guyana, fly fishing for Arapaima. Bough the Aonyx 25 waterproof backpack to protect expensive gear from the elements ... item performed flawlessly.

Great bag but so heavy!
Perfect size, well made, very good design. Ought to be perfect but it's SO heavy.
Decided I didn't want that much weight before I even put anything inside and sent it back.
Sorry!

Quality and versatility
When this backpack arrived I was immediately pleased with the quality. The pleasure continued when I started to use the pack. I'd bought it to carry camera equipment which already had individual cases, so I needed a backpack to accommodate them all. This backpack holds my drone & controller, two action cameras & accessories, Sony a6700 & cage. All in individual cases. There is also room for a tripod, drone take-off pad and boom mic. All this in an ordinary backpack which doesn't indicate the contents. I'm very pleased with this purchase!

🙋
Is the backpack waterproof?
The Fortitude is water resistant. Whilst the main backpack is made from a highly water resistant tight weave oxford, the zips are less so and may let in moisture in extremely wet conditions.
🙋
How big is the bag?
External measurements when loaded are approximately 55cm x 34cm x 20cm. Internally there is nearly 40L of capacity.
🙋
Can I carry the backpack as hand luggage on an airplane?
It depends on the airline and you should check the size restrictions with your airline before you fly.
As a general guide the backpack is suitable for premium/overhead allowances, but too big to fit under the seat.
Carry everything on your adventures with nearly 40l of capacity. Great for backpacking. Fits most airline overhead size limits. Stow easily with roll-away backpack straps.
Carry comfortably as a backpack, shoulder bag or duffel.
