This seems to be missing info? The Eiger Summit, how many litres and what's the weight, I'm not sure what _g means......

Indeed, and also that was the worst example of that horrible 'matey/faux comedy' advertising genre speak I've seen for ages. Sack the advert writer.

Well spotted - thanks for pointing that out. It would seem that we uploaded a version without those details added (We will change it asap). FYI Eiger Summit weighs around 340g and is an 18litre pack.

All the best,

By 'that really fast Swiss bloke' you will want everyone to think 'Ueli Steck', but by not mentioning his name presumably he doesn't get any money. Does that seem right to you?

Hi Andy,

Thanks for the message. That certainly wasn't our intention. The reason we didn't name drop Ueli Steck was because we thought "...that really fast Swiss bloke" was more fitting with the tone of the article. Hope that clears it up for you.

Thanks again,

Marmot UK

The tone that's a rubbish attempt to be matey and comical? Seriously, it's not just me, that fake friendly/best mates/banter advertising copy is shit!
