It Exceeded My Expectations! The New Outdoor Vitals CS40

In this video, I share my thoughts on the new Outdoor Vitals CS40. This isn't a sponsored video, but they did send it to me for free a few months ago without any strings attached (no influence in this review). Since then, I've essentially been using it as my main hiking backpack. And to sum up - I like it a lot!

The reason for the white fabric is that it's made of UHMWPE yarn, which is very difficult to die. So far as I know, it's only manufactured in black, grey and white. It's also insanely expensive, which accounts for the cost of the pack, so very likely the manufacturers have chosen to standardise on a single colour to keep their costs down.

Thanks for the review. You adressed many of my concerns about this and frameless packs in general.

Glad it was helpful!

Advantage of white fabric is you can see inside the pack way better than if it's black

That is one adorable doggy right there!

[@OscarHikes]

He's old, so he was just glad to chill a bit. 😀

Thanks for the review - you have reinforced why I don't use ultra light kit and why I avoid white kit too!

[@OscarHikes]

It's definitely not for everyone!

Tiene muy buena pinta esa mochila (pese al absurdo color blanco y esos bolsillos tan cutres) pero 340€ es un auténtico despropósito. Gracias por la revisión!
