The sturdiness and top-notch quality of Savotta products is out of question,the aspect i like most about the pack is how solid and durable the materials feel. However I have to say I expected a lot more under the ergonomics point of view. Even though I bought the dedicated foam mat for the back side of the pack, after 3/4 hours of moderate hike in the woods (with a quite modest load) I felt pain on my shoulders and back. My remedy was an ALICE lumbar pad and a couple shoulder pads for the straps. With these upgrades the backpack is way more comfortable. I understand it's a small pack and that maybe it was designed with light tasks in mind, but considering the sack-like top closing flap the capacity can go up a lot, hence better ergonomics should have been taken into account. After the upgrade I made I am satisfied with the pack (which was already good), but to be honest I wouldn't buy it again, not at that price point at least.

Compact sized backpack. In fact, bigger in size, because it could hold a lot more stuff than I initially imagined. I also have additional pockets on the sides and in the front as well. I put the pvc sheet and the padding in the previous space against the back. This way I got a smoother feeling on the back and still good interior space. The lower parts of the carrying straps put a bit of pressure on the sides when I tried wearing only a t-shirt and there were things in the side pockets and an otherwise empty backpack part. With a thicker coat, etc., it didn't weigh at all and evenly packed. I bought from ale and really value for money.

I have carried dozens of different backpacks over the course of more than 60 years. Jääkäri M has been my basic backpack for at least 10 years and is the best of them all. When I need more stuff, the L size is just as valid. Now I also bought an S-sized backpack for city and day trip use. Excellently convenient, small enough for these purposes and very protective of the goods. Worth the price.

I can see some "air"/light between the stitches in the bottom of the pack, but it seems to be quite consistent for the whole seams so I guess that it is how it should be.. I have not used the backpack very much yet but so far carried ~10 kg in it without any change with respect to this. Long warranty time as well!

It's Savotta. It will probably outlive me... It's trebuchet tested :D What else could you ask for? I'm a bit sad i got the Polish made one, but no complaints.

+ Sits well on the back, good to carry. Fast opening with two buckles.
- Deep, meaning you have to dig 'hand up to your shoulder' for stuff from the bottom. Extra pockets, at least for yourself, a must-buy, on a shopping trip you have to dig out your wallet from the bottom of the backpack (customisability is of course also planned)

I finally found a level of quality high as "swiss made" and even better. This bag is just perfect.

I myself am a 15-year-old boy and the backpack is excellent. it is small enough and at the same time really spacious. There is certainly enough stuff in the trunk for every trip. My concern about the backpack before the purchase was that it is too small or too big for me, but it is just right. Savota's Jääkäri S is full of Finnish guts👍

A sturdy and high-quality backpack, lots of options for attachment of straps. Really comfortable shoulder straps, would recommend the sternum strap.

Perfect form factor and outlook, but it would be nicer if Strap Keepers is included too. If any one need to get strap keeper, get both 50mm and 25mm.

The best backpack I've had so far. Perfect size for day to day stuff and for bushcraft and hiking. Just don't let it get too heavy 😉.
Overall rating |
An extremely simple daypack. There is no support at all on the back side, so when packed even a little bit, the backpack is quite bulky and feels quite uncomfortable, so you should buy Savota's MPP platform for a friend or craft something similar yourself. Otherwise, however, the quality is guaranteed in Savotta.
Overall rating |
A great small backpack and surprisingly roomy for one. Very good quality of work. The shape is convenient, does not get in the way when moving. A chest strap for this is a mandatory additional purchase, as well as loops suitable for edging the straps; the straps are so sturdy that they better not catch on anything.

A simple, durable backpack with extra padding removed.
You can add a piece of gym fire mat (e.g. Gymstick) that fits the back side to give it firmness and softness, which you put in the bladder pocket. It will be sturdier than with that piece of Savota mpp foam.
There is plenty of space for day trips and shopping trips, one person can easily fit about a week's worth of groceries on board.
Can be squeezed into a surprisingly sturdy package.
Overall rating |
the backpack is excellent like all Savotta products, which are always of high quality. Essential backpack, functional, light but robust, no frills, very versatile. The only drawback is the color that is not really brown or coyote as you would expect, it is an indefinite color, a mix of brown-green-yellow ... It is not really brown, nor havana or coyote, whatever you prefer. I would have preferred a "brown" more similar to the coyote shade typical of other famous brands, which tend to a havana shade ...

As anything Savotta, the Jääkäri S is bulletproof: very well made, very sturdy and I'll doubt it will ever break. It has been made with much knowledge of how a backpack should work and has a surprising volume that is easily expanded by using the MOLLE system. I can easily pack for two days bushcrafting in a summer environment (lighter sleeping bag) with a little space to spare. Perfect!
Overall rating |
Savotan Jääkäri S is a sturdy backpack with a lot of space and attachment options. The clip attachments in the flap bring peace of mind and durability, as the traction chains as the main closure of the space have been the point in the backpack where the backpack gives up in its own use.

Believe it or not; I use this for shopping by foot at the local supermarket. I keep the bag rolled up on itself until I have passed the cashier, so there is not any suspicion of shop lifting. Some elastic cord through the MOLLE webbing allows to over pack when necessary. This hardly ever happens as the contents of a small super market basket fits precisely in the 20ℓ of the back pack. Highly recommended!

I am completely satisfied with the backpack. I have owned the bigger brother for a long time and I think that the quality and durability will be just as excellent. I was amazed at how comfortable it is to wear over a long period of time. I use it as an everyday backpack as well as a daypack or for minimalistic overnight stays. and have it on my back every day. the small zippered compartment shouldn't be packed too full, otherwise it can press against your back, despite the foam mat. the compartment is above the hydration bladder pocket.

comfortable on the back, very good backpack. I could assume it will last for years. I also bought a Savotta foam mat if it would increase the comfort of use, however with light loads its existence is hardly even noticed and the backpack is quite good even without it, however if the backpack carries something angular then it is useful
-it has no need to cushion the files with at least ~ 5kg loads.
The drinking bladder can fit in the bladder pocket at the same time as the Savotta mouse pad.
-MPP foam Matt just a good addition

Great basic backpack. I think stylish, keep water in itself. Buckles a strong act. The disadvantage is the lack of cushioning of the shoulder straps and chest strap. You can get them when you order loose straps and belt cushions, for example, from the online store of a competing company that sells used military goods. After that, the whole becomes its 5 stars

After months of almost daily use I can say that this backpack combines all the characteristics of what I hoped. On a business trip, two standard shopping bags are suitable for this shopping and sitting comfortably on the back while skiing. The flap closure is simple and functional.

The best backpack for day trips I have ever had! Also enough for at least a warm season for night or two long trips. Despite its simple appearance, the backpack bends to the most diverse needs thanks to additional pockets and fastening loops. The quality of the material and work is top notch. This is to be taken proudly of Savota's Finnishness!

A really great backpack. Durable, catches everything you need and black is also good for civilian use (the appearance received praise from the better half). Particularly good here is the material, which is not likely to disappoint right away. Another good and downright excellent thing is backpack loading. With a normal zippered backpack, you can shop around at the checkout. From this the "hatch" is taken open and everything can only be thrown into the "hold". Incredibly spacious backpack that, thanks to the adjustments, instantly changes from a small business backpack to a really big shopping bag.
However, you should put a backrest in this backpack. Either buy Savota on your own or build it yourself. Personally, I squeezed the aluminum supports from the deceased backpack, cut a suitable piece of foam, and pulled these onto the ikea plastic euro cutting board with double-sided tape. The result is a backrest that goes into the drinking bladder pocket with an aluminum support and a foam against the back. Also suitable as a Persian ship if you want to sit somewhere. The price is about 3 euros and the time goes 20 min. Savota's own back support is likely to be available for 20-30 euros, but it was not available from Varuste.net at the time of purchase.
All in all, a highly recommended backpack, although not quite perfect. This is not suitable for tray hi-fiers (or one zipper pocket). The backrest does not come with it and some may need clamps on the backpack straps. These were little things to myself, and favoring domestic work in this case took precedence over a foreign solution, especially since useless compartments and pockets usually only mean more zippers that break down before long. Yes, I dare to have this on my back and the price paid doesn't bother me. Value for money!
