Fjallraven Ulvo 30 Backpack Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- The Fjällräven Ulvö 30 backpack is a really cool backpack for a minimalist travel. Coming in at about 2lbs/900g and made from a "waterproof" Bergshell®: 400D 100% polyamide. Watch me test Fjällräven claims.

This was by far the best an most in-depth backpack review i've ever seen on youtube. Most reviews are just from shops that try to boost their google ranking, but this is genuine and helpful!
Thank you, this was my first backapack review
not sure if you guys cares but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can watch all the new movies and series on instaflixxer. I've been streaming with my girlfriend recently =)
@Milo Remington yup, been watching on InstaFlixxer for years myself :)
Loved the waterproof test bit. Not many reviewers actually go through the process of thoroughly testing this.
Dude, you rock at reviewing! Thanks for sharing your experience with this particular backpack
Thanks for watching. Just trying to present an honest opinion that most backpack reviewers don't show.
I’ve never seen anyone test the waterproofness by taking a shower but it’s such a smart way to do it lmao
This was literally the perfect review, so thank you
I think every backpack reviewer should do this.
this review is so helpful, thank you.
Great review! Thanks for being so thorough, and fun with it.
More fun reviews to come
Hi uncle
Excellent review! Thank you for this 🫡
Very helpful review Patrick, thanks. Managed to get the bag at a reduced price and am very happy!
Great review! Thanks for taking the time :)
I would like to point out though, regarding the waterproofing that Fjällräven offers, that it concerns rain and temporary falls into water - not the pressurized water jets of a showerhead :) With the angle of a shower head you get direct water pressure right onto the zipper - it actually gets in under the protective covering you were so happy about - which would never happen when you are out and about. Unless you decide to literally take a shower with your pack on... *shrugs*
Love your attention to detail, though, and I really appreciate that you thought to test the waterproofing seriously - even if I will gladly point out that it would probably do great IRL despite your results ;)
Thanks for sharing!!

Thanks for the feedback Lizz, I really appreciate you taking the time to watch the whole video. Often when I travel through Southeast Asia I get caught in rain. hehe, I should probably take more taxis. hehe. What's your favorite bag for one bag travel?
You literally didn't miss a single one of my questions. Very well done.
Thank you. Stick around as I am about to do another underrated backpack.
Awesome review! I like how you talk about everyday use, and show it on your back, as well as showing what all you can fit in it!! I'm absolutely sold on this pack, thanks to your review!
Thank you for watching.
Hi Patrick. Great video, fun to watch and very comprehensive. Very helpful as I am considering to purchase this backpack. Gracias señor!
Thank you for your kind words. I hope to make more videos of backpacks I own.
Thank you very much for the great review. I'm not yet done with my research for a new backback, but still considering this one. I loved the waterproof test :D
Thinking about getting this backpack for my daily commute on bicycle to work. Thanks for an in-depth review. Great to know how it handled itself in rain.
You are welcome. I would recommend this if you are going to use it for bike commuting. I have the bigger one and I love it. www.amazon.com/HEIMPLANET-Original-ELLIPSE-Compartment-Darkgrey/dp/B071R3D2KG/ref=sr_1_7?crid=12B8BOPPVJ12N&keywords=heimplanet&qid=1644124183&sprefix=hellmplanet%2Caps%2C60&sr=8-7&th=1
@@PatrickBonsi Thanks for the link. never heard of that brand before but the backpack looks great.
one of the best solid reviews for this pack. I'm thrilled to get this backpack!
Thanks for sharing depth review for Ulvo 30...really appreciate it. This Ulvo 30 just released recently i believed
You are right. I didnt find any reviews of the bag out there so I decided to try my hand at backpack reviews and truly test them instead of believing everything that the packapack marketing departments says. I am glad you found the review helpful.
Patrick Bonsi how long you been using it? How the performance till now? Thanks
@@syahrulsamsuddin3730 I have had it for about 3 weeks now but my only issue with it is that it picks up a lot of dirt easily. I wish it came with a rain fly.
@@PatrickBonsi I ended up finding this video because you (still) have the only review of the bag! The presentation wasn't as slick as PackHacker or Rushfaster, but the thoroughness of the review was great! Wish the audio quality and the initial bag tour was a continuous shot when you showed off different angles of the bag.
@@SashaSirotkin Thank you for the feedback Sasha, I really appreciate it. I hope to make better videos once I can afford a lav mic. I will make sure to try my best to get continuous shots of the bag tour. I love PackHacker and Rushfast reviews too. I will definitely try to learn more from them.
Great review. Thank you for the profile views, it's way bigger than I thought it would be. I think i'll opt for the 23 instead. The waterproof test was brilliant as well haha.
Thank you. The water proof test was my fav part. Most backpack reviewers dont do that.
hey, your review is really great. it had all the info i wanted to know about this bag and then some! thanks for creating this video! it helped immensely! please make more review videos! you do a great job!
Thank you for your kind words. Comments like this motivate me. What would aspects of a backpack would you like to know more about in future videos?
@@PatrickBonsi the things in your video that i found most important are 1. you actually putting it through a real water test with tissue and all 2. what you were personally looking for in a bag like that 3. a very thoughtful and thorough explanation of the bags features 4. what it looks like on an actual human (with general height and weight). i think you pretty much hit all the points. the field testing was essential. good stuff! keep those videos coming!
Great review. I liked seeing everything you could put into it.
This is an extremely well done review for this product.
Super helpful, thanks! Also liked your video to help with the UA-cam algorithm :)
Thank you very much. I really appreciate it.
This was an awesome video! It was so thorough and the shower test was actually very helpful.
Thank you. I wish most backpack reviewers did that too. hehe
super useful video thanks much!!
thank you so much for this review, such a great freaking review!!!
thanks to this you convinced me to buy the ulvo 30 L ROLLTop version
Thank you for wathcing. Hopefully I can make more backpack reviews.
I have the rolltop Ulvo 23, it is pretty much waterproof because there are no zippers to allow ingress of water.
What a great review. Not over the top and extra, but very informative! Well done sir.
Thank you.
Clean and good design. Fair price too. Oh definitely need to buy the rain cover.
You definitely need to.
I was considering this for my EDC/occasional travel bag, but it might be too big for EDC. Thanks for the great review!
Its definitely too big for an EDC unless you are a student who uses it for school and going to the gym.
haha the shower test was amazing
I really enjoyed the video. Thank you for doing the shower test. Not sure I want to purchase now knowing it is not 100% waterproof. Keep up the great work and happy traveling. 😁
I wish they would have added water guard zippers or a free rain cover.
I like the hidden zippers feature!! Good review
I’m obsessed with bags and I travel all over the world for work... this review is one of my favorites. Please do more! Have you ever tried the REI Ruckpack 40 or a Northface BaseCamp duffel (with packing cubes, size XS - 31 liter) for one bag travel? I’ve tried both and prefer the duffel bag, but I really want to try this Ulvo 30 now
Great video.
Testing it under the shower was the best part.
Cheers
Thank you for the video review Patrick, very informative and well informs the product.
Thank you. Any constructive feedback is always welcome.
Wonderful review! Thank You!
This is awesome lol. I'm sold. Thanks man!
Thank you for taking the time to watch my video. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions about the backpack.
Your information helping me thanks a lot!!
Best backpack review ever! Thanks
You're welcome. Thank you for watching my video. Hopefully, I will have time to review some of the new ones I just got.
Very helpful review. Thanks👍🏽.
Great review especially the water test
Thank you for watching.
10/10 review. Honestly it was so helpful. Just ordered it :)
Thank you for watching, I appreciate every view. What backpack are you thinking of buying?
Great review! Have you used it as carry-on/hand luggage at all? According to the official dimensions it looks like it's too deep for most airlines, but in my experience they've always let me through with a small-ish backpack regardless of dimensions.
I have used it in the US and Asia but not in Europe. I know EU airlines are more strict.
@Callum, have you tried it in Europe?, this is my concern as well, if I would be able to put it under my seat or not.
I travel with the fjallraven Kaipak 38 and it passes as personal item. Don’t be such a straight arrow.
Thank you for this review, really helpful!
You are welcome. Thank you for watching.
excellent video, I just bought mine today. Can't wait to try it out.
Its a fantastic backpack. I just wish the zippers were water sealed.
Very cool thx!
Glad you liked the video. What's something new you learned about the bag?
Very helpful, thank you!
I want this just for go to the supermarket in quarantine. :)
Great video, this was very detailed I really liked it.
Thank you. What would you use the bag for
awesome review! It really helped and I appreciate your effort :-)
Thank you for watching it. Are there any details you would like to see in future videos?
Thanks for this! Really good review. Agree with you, this is a stylish backpack for those who travels light. Are you carrying a daypack too, or planning to use this as daypack once you get to the destination? Cheers!
I use it only for travel. I really wish it had waterproof zippers
wow, thank you!
thanks my man
This is how you do it!!! 👍
Thank you for watching. More backpack videos coming soon.
Very good review
Fjallraven Ulvo 30 vs North Face Litus 32 vs Patagonia Refugio 30 ??? Already have a Gregory Miwok 24L and a Sportiva 45L for heavy travel (side opening), so I need something in between. Thanks a lot. GREAT VIDEO
I would still buy the Ulvo because of style. Northface and Patagonia look too much like school bags.
Hello, does the mesh of your Ulvo damaged your clothes? After 1 week, my clothes are pilling :(
Mine has not damaged my clothes. I can see this happening with you wear a lot of wool clothes.
brilliant idea getting in the shower, thanks for that. Most reviewers don't even test water proofness
I really wanted to test the claims.
It's a nice bag, but it doesn't hold its shape, as we can see in 7:31. It looks pretty bad.
You're right. Because of the lack of an internal frame, it's lighter. I agree that they could have at least used thicker materials to help with the shape when it's empty.
Nice vid bro!!! The rolltop is better with water...
Thanks, great review: I had problems with the ‘waterproof’ fabric too. Fjallraven really needs to stop calling this fabric waterproof as it is very misleading. It’s better than G1000, but that’s like saying printer paper is more waterproof than newspaper. Nicely made packs, but no serious competition for the likes of Mystery Ranch.
I completely agree. hopefully, they will take the feedback and design a less porous fabric, and add waterproof zippers.
Agreed. Hate when companies say it's waterproof while they should be more truthful. A water repellant coating isn't the same as waterproof. And no bag will ever be waterproof anyway. Sure, waterproof sippers can help with the water-repellant coating, but after using it for a longer time you would need to re-apply some water-resistant coating again anyway. The only thing that can truly help to a certain extend is a waterproof bag that you pull over the backpack, but then it will look ugly as hell.
I've used several gore-tex and gore-tex pro jackets while hiking and biking and even though they are great at keeping the water out during regular down-pours, really bad rain (like water from a shower) could potentially get into the jacket at some point near the sleeves, the opening near your face, or through the jacket if you haven't done anything to strengthen the water-repellant coating after it doesn't work as well anymore.
Did you end up keeping the pack? If you did, what other pack did you get instead? Thanks!
I kept it, but I don't use it often. I also ended up getting this backpack too for $60, which I use more because it opens up like a suitcase. www.eddiebauer.com/p/82300227/voyager-3.0-backpack-30l?sp=1&color=Black&size=ONE%20SIZE
Can you attach a carabiner to this backpack to hold shoes on the outside? If so, where?
You could where the biking night light goes but I would not recommend it since the joints are not double stitched.
Nice 👍🏻
Is the laptop compartment suspended?
Was the bag that the woman used at the beginning the ulvo 30?
Yes. My wife was wearing it to give an idea of what it looks like on women.
Great review!
Thank you. any feedback is always welcomed
Where did you get the packing cubes from?
I got them from Peak Design. www.peakdesign.com/products/packing-cube/?variant=11531140038700
