ACTION CAMERA HARNESS
The Action Camera Harness is a well-integrated and very comfortable action camera holder compatible with almost every USWE backpack. It’s aimed at both hobby and professional filmmakers and eliminates the need to wear an uncomfortable chest mount under the backpack. Velcro fasteners on the shoulder and hip straps allow the harness to be attached and detached quickly and ensure a comfortable and firm fit. Once the filming session is over, the holder can quickly be removed and stored in the backpack. It’s compatible with all GoPro models and retails at a similar price as GoPro’s Chesty strap.
The USWE ACTION CAMERA HARNESS convinced our jury with its good fit, superb integration and high level of comfort while filming in the Chest Mount perspective with a USWE backpack.

AIRBORNE 15
The AIRBORNE 15 is the choice to pick if you’re that hard core mountainbike type of rider going on a wild all day adventure. This mountainbike backpack is equipped with our bounce free No Dancing Monkey™ (NDM) 4-point harness system, which makes the pack stay snug on you with no bounce even in the most brutal of terrains.
Statement of the jury:
Relying on the brand’s innovative ‘No Dancing Monkey’ carrying system, the USWE AIRBORNE stays firmly on the rider’s back no matter how burly the trails are. With a ton of fine-tuning options for fit, the AIRBORNE is capable of conforming to the whole spectrum of physiques. The AIRBORNE’s design is well thought-out, seeing it fit tightly to the body yet still giving the rider the freedom of movement necessary to get loose. When temperatures and techy feats of riding are on the rise, the AIRBORNE regulates the rider’s back temperature superbly, keeping a decent airflow on climbs and descents. Alongside a watertight pocket for essentials, like your smartphone, there’s also the option to attach a rear light and a mounting system for a full face or open-face helmet.

Scrambler 16
Statement of the jury:
The SUV among urban riding backpacks, the USWE SCRAMBLER is a high quality sixteen-litre backpack that teams traditional materials and an achingly hip look with performance that was previously only found on purebred outdoor sports backpacks. The SCRAMBLER relies on the award-winning ‘No Dancing Monkey’ carrying system, which has proven its staying power on USWE’s mountain bike backpacks and keeps a firm position whatever the situation or terrain. On the more city-orientated SCRAMBLER, USWE have reconsidered the idea of ventilation, choosing to make sensible tweaks to the design rather than blindly copying their successful MTB line. The SCRAMBLER, for example, features numerous Flex zones that have been optimized for an urban riding backpack. In short: the brand have crafted the ultimate backpack for everyone who’s keen to profit from performance and aesthetics on a daily basis.
