I am really impressed. It hits every spot for the reasons it was designed. Very comfortable, loads of room even for a 90 litre quality Bergen, I would highly recommend.

I’ve been waiting for this to come back in stock so thank you Woodlore team for letting me know you had it.
The rucksack is well stitched on seams plenty of space for kit. The outer pockets are big enough to fit my stove in for easy access for a brew.
It’s comfortable to wear and adjusts easily for a good fit. Looking forward to years of use and time on the hills with it.

I was in the market for a simple yet well made bag and this certainly on the face of it suited my needs. The bag it’s self rides very well and the straps work well, I love the fact it’s not covered in molle. The single main compartment is great for one dry bag to allow easy use. A great bag excellent stitching, I also like the fact it has drain holes a nice feature.

I am rather annoyed at myself for purchasing this product. Not even been used but noticed a scuff mark on one of the pockets. This is surprising given its never been outside. But the bag is not lined and nor are the pockets. All that I had in there as a BCB mark 1 cup which I guess caused the issue when the bag was placed next to cupboard. The material is very thin so not really surprised but I am given the cost of this product. This does not fill me with confidence as to the hard wearing nature. My Wisport and Savotta rucksacks are rock solid and have been in many forests in the UK and Europe had still look brand new with no scuff marks. Trust me they have been in some very dense woods full of bracken. The pack looks good and is the main reason I purchased but thats all its got going for it. I guess, as others have mentioned on YT reviews, you are paying for the name and nothing more. So, I will stick to my Other packs and probably give this one away to a charity shop or homeless charity as I know they always looking for large packs. Sorry this review is rather negative but to be honest it was a wasted purchase. We live and learn as they say. I would not recommend this for heavy duty activities. Thanks.

Dear Mark We are very sorry to hear of your disappointment in your recent purchase from us. The Leaf Cutter Rucksack is a hard-wearing product made from waterproof 1,000 denier Cordura Nylon and was thoroughly tested by Ray for its functionality and durability before bringing to the market. This rucksack has also been heavily used by several of our course instructional team out in the field over five or six seasons. Although unlined, it does not compromise on its reliability and strength, using a single layer of fabric helps to keep the rucksack as light as possible; certainly a high priority when on expedition. The Leaf Cutter Rucksack is not a cheap product but is competitively priced considering it is professionally made to the highest standards within the UK. There is no premium charged for the name, or in fact any of the research and development costs incurred by Ray and the Woodlore team bringing this project to fruition. We appreciate your feedback and thank you for taking the time to contact us. We hope you will perhaps give the rucksack a second chance to prove its worth to you.

This is everything that I want from a rucksack, and I have trialled so many bags in the past 20 years. This one is well thought out, the quality of the material and zips are superb. It's not a complex design, which means that I know exactly where everything is, and I can access things like my tarp without having to open the main compartment and I love that it fits my 14cm billy can in a side pocket without a problem.
I was concerned that the back length would be too big for me as I'm only 5'5 but, actually, it's perfect and comfortable to wear on long hikes. I love this rucksack.

I received my Leafcutter Rucksack last week just prior to heading off on a multi day hike on the Grampians Peaks Trail (Victoria AUSTRALIA). I wanted a rucksack that was simple, strong, and large enough to carry enough kit for long duration trekking. I found the Leafcutter met all my needs very well. I love its simplicity. If I had to find a criticism It would be that the waist belt is a little prone to slippage under tension and I needed to tighten it every now and again. I think this will fix itself when the shine wears off the fabric but it’s really the most minor point. I love the rucksack and I’m sure it will give me many years of service in the Australian Bush. I also note it is a creation in partnership with Scottish Mountain Gear. I have used one of their Cuillan 2 Sacs for over 25 years and love it too so the Leafcutter has great genes. Thanks for your great products and service.

I was extremely doubtful on ordering this purely down to the cost and was torn two or three times in pressing ‘buy’ - but each time I hesitated they sold out, but having seen the rucksack when I went to see Ray live on stage, I knew I had to get it and I’m so pleased I did.
Not because it sold out again in about two days but because it’s a beautiful bit of kit.
The material it’s made of is robust and will last many many years and, there’s plenty of room for all your gear and food.
It’s comfortable to wear too and what I like is there’s no fluff about it. It’s everything I need in a rucksack without the gimmicks and to me that’s important.
Yes it’s nearly £200 but I don’t think you’ll regret ordering it. In fact I’m sure you won’t.
I love it!

The rucksack arrived today and from what I have seen of it so far I am very happy with this purchase. One of the things I first noticed which I am very happy about is how light it feels compared to other rucksacks I have owned in the past. The construction of the rucksack is well thought out as well as the basic simplicity in as much there is a lack of buckles and straps which I like and prefer. The volume of the bag is ample, the pockets on the side are a good size, as are the internal ones.
Going back to the lack of straps and belts, which for me is quite important, it's great to just open the bag, get what you need, shut it and move on without the paraphernalia of undoing unnecessary straps which some bags have get in the way. I am looking forward to trying this rucksack out. I really like the look of this Leaf Cutter Rucksack. Hopefully it will get many years of service and I shall give you an update in the near future. To everyone at Woodlore, thanks for your help and service.
