I can really recommend karrimor backpacks! I bought mine in London 8 years ago and I've used it on many long trips. When I was in Thailand just for 2 months i didn't bring it so I bought a fake north face backpack that lasted for 1 month

Does anyone know the brand name of the Norwegen brand of rucksack that has a logo of an H in a box.
Met a Norwegen traveller who had one and it looked the greatest rucksack I'd ever seen. My karrimore has been great, but its worn out. |

I think you might mean Haglofs, which is Swedish, not Norwegian. According to my (Swedish) girlfriend (Mangogirl), the quality is excellent.

In Australia and New Zealand - I can recommend Black Wolf. The Grand Teton (80L) is the one I have and it is comfortable and sturdy. The harness is fantastic!
The zips are lockable and there is a zip on daypack. Grant |
