Helikon-Tex - Groundhog Backpack®

GROUNDHOG Backpack – Compact size, maximum functionality

GROUNDHOG is an excellent example that a compact size does not limit its functionality. This small backpack is ideal for short trips, bike rides or as an everyday EDC bag.

The spacious main compartment can easily accommodate not only a water bladder via a webbing suspension, but also extra clothing or equipment. In addition, the bag has an expandable pocket on the front with a vertically positioned zip. The concealable mesh beavertail allows you to wear a helmet or wet clothes, keeping them separate from the rest of your gear.

On both sides of the pack there are two zipped pockets with additional mesh bottle holders, stabilized with a compression strap. In addition, both sides of the pack have two rows of MOLLE Lite webbing, which gives the opportunity to attach additional pockets. The narrower width of the webbing also makes the bag lighter.

The carrying system is based on narrow, padded and profiled shoulder straps, supported by 3D mesh. The same 3D mesh is also on the stiff, padded back, which reduces the sweat problem. For better stabilization, the bag has minimalist hip and chest straps.

SIZE INSTRUCTIONS

We want to ensure that the clothes you buy really fit you - so that they can perform their purpose correctly. Please take a moment of your valuable time to check the measurement guide and the corresponding size chart to avoid mistakes.

To take the correct measurements, find the clothes that fit you well and measure them.

Breast

Button the clothes and lay them on a flat surface. Measure from the left edge to the right edge just below the sleeves.

Stomach

Button the clothes and lay them on a flat surface. Measure from the left edge to the right edge at the waist.

Sleeve length

While wearing a shirt you like, measure with one arm at your side, from the shoulder seam down the arm until you find the desired length. We recommend that the sleeve should go to the base of the thumb (at the wrist).

On jackets with raglan sleeves, like the Stratus® or Cumulus® , the sleeve measurements should be taken from the bottom of the collar down to the sleeve.

Inner seam

Button up your pants. Lay the trousers out on a flat surface. Measure the inseam from the crotch, where the front and back seams meet, to the bottom of the leg.

Trouser length

Button up your pants. Lay the trousers out on a flat surface with the seams on both sides. Be sure to pull out any wrinkles and excess from the back panel. Measure the distance from the top of the waistband to the bottom of the hem.

Total length

Lay flat the skirt that best matches your size with the side seams facing up. Use your hand to flatten/straighten out any wrinkles on the fabric. Then measure the distance between the top edge and the bottom edge. To get the most accurate result, you should measure this along the side seam.

Waist circumference

Lay flat the skirt that best matches your size with the zipper facing up. Use your hand to flatten/straighten out any wrinkles on the fabric. Measure the top of the skirt (waist line) from one side edge to the opposite side edge. Then double the result to get the waist circumference.

Hip circumference

Lay flat the skirt that best matches your size with the zipper facing up. Use your hand to flatten/straighten out any wrinkles on the fabric. Then measure the distance between the opposite sides of the hip section (depending on the cut of the skirt, the hips should be approximately 11-14 cm below the top edge of the skirt). Double the result to get the hip circumference.

TOLERANCE FOR THE MEASUREMENTS GIVEN IN THE TABLE IS +/- 2 CM (APPLICABLE FOR CLOTHES ONLY).
