I like the backpack. It is sturdy for its weight. So far, the maximum weight has been around 15 kg. I can't think of anything else to complain about the backpack other than the fact that there is no storage pocket on the belt. After the first test trip, I bought the Lundhags Core Padje Light Multi Pockets 1+1L, which are sold separately.

I've been using the Padje Light 45L for over a year, and since I needed a larger pack, I recently ordered the 60L version as well. True to its name, the Padje Light is incredibly lightweight and carries effortlessly. It fits snugly on my back, and the aluminum frame provides just the right amount of support. For long weekends hiking the GR5, with overnight stays in hostels, the 45L pack has been perfect. It comfortably accommodates essential gear, including rain protection. If you also need to carry a tent, sleeping mat, and stove, it fits—but just barely. The 60L version should be ideal for trips requiring extra equipment like a tent, sleeping mat, and cooking supplies. One thing to keep in mind: the pack has very few pockets. Aside from a small one near the top for keys and a wallet, everything else goes into the main compartment or one of the three outer compartments. Fortunately, one of these provides quick access to grab a water bottle. Hip pockets aren’t included, as they add weight—but if you prefer them, you can purchase one (or two) separately. Personally, I haven’t missed them. Overall, the Padje Light is an exceptional ultralight backpack—perfect for those who prioritize weight savings without compromising on carrying comfort.
