Is your purchase not quite what you expected or is the size incorrect? No problem, you can easily return your order to us. You may try on and view an item as you would in a shop, but there are some rules. 

GOOD TO KNOW

  • You have 14 days from receipt of your order to register your return.
  • Are you too late? Then your order will no longer be found in the portal. In that case, always contact us first so we can see what possibilities there are.
  • After registering online, you then have 14 days to hand in your return at the post office. If you hand in the parcel after the 14 days, we will unfortunately no longer be able to process your return. The sooner you register and send in your return, the sooner it will be processed and you will receive your money back. 
  • Almost all outerwear and trousers are delivered with a large yellow return label. Do not remove this until you decide to keep the item! Once this vignette has been removed, there is no way we can return the item.
  • Returns are at your own risk and expense.
  • If you return part of your order, we will only refund the amount of the returned items and not other costs such as shipping costs.
  • If you have received an incorrect or damaged item, please always contact us a.s.a.p. and include photos of the product and the labels so we can see which item/defect is concerned.

 

 

 

STEP BY STEP GUIDE:

1. Check your items

√ Has the return period of 14 days after receipt not expired

√ Is the yellow return label (in the case of outerwear and trousers) and all price tags still attached?

√ Is the article unworn and therefore not dirty, damaged or creased?

 

2. Submit your return online  

Enter your own postcode and the full order number (including letters) in the portal to which you can start the return. You can choose to purchase a DPD shipping label via the portal. If you choose this option, print the shipping label. You can download this immediately and it will also be sent to you by e-mail (please check your e-mail address and any spam mail). 

You can also choose another carrier outside the portal. We always advise you to send the parcel insured. The DPD label via the portal insures your parcel up to €500.

 

3. Pack your return


√ Fold the items neatly and close all zips and buttons. Because of the technical materials it is important not to cause serious creases and wrinkles, as these can damage the product. 

Then pack the items back in their original packaging and put them in the shipping bag or box. Another bag or box is also fine, as long as it is sturdy so that it arrives undamaged

√ If you have items from several orders that you wish to return, you may simply return them in 1 parcel

√ Put the enclosed packing slip/order confirmation (or a copy) in the parcel

√ Stick the DPD shipping label on the parcel.

 

If you have chosen to send via another carrier, please write the return address on the parcel:

Product information
  • 567 g in REG for a full 18-litre daypack
  • Two-point adjustable, swappable harness (2 sizes)
  • Harness pockets take two 500 ml soft flasks
  • Water repellent only: no membrane, no rain cover
  • Narrow straps, unpadded removable waist belt
  • Surface clean only - the pack must not be washed

The Arc'teryx Aerios 18 Backpack is an ultralight 18-litre daypack for day hiking and fast, light trail outings, and it weighs 567 g in size REG. What sets it apart is the patent-pending two-point harness adjustment: the shoulder straps adjust at the top and at the bottom, so you can position the harness pockets and the load on your torso. The harness itself is interchangeable and comes in two sizes.

Who is the Aerios 18 Backpack for?

This pack suits the hiker who wants the lightest possible 18-litre daypack and a harness that can be fine-tuned or swapped to match their torso. The volume covers a day's water, food, a shell and a midlayer, with a front bungee and a webbing daisy chain for what will not go inside. It is not a snow-sport pack: the Arc'teryx Aerios 18 Backpack has no ski, snowboard, ice axe, crampon or helmet carry and no separate compartment for a shovel and probe. Look elsewhere too if you regularly carry heavy or bulky loads.

How weatherproof is the Aerios 18 Backpack?

Water repellent, not waterproof. The 210d Hadron LCP grid body fabric at 161 gsm and the 110 gsm recycled polyester lining both carry an FC0 DWR finish that is free from intentionally added PFAS, which sheds light rain and damp brush. There is no waterproof membrane, the zippers are not sealed and no rain cover is supplied, so in sustained heavy rain put your contents in a dry bag or liner.

Which size should you choose?

The pack body comes in one size, REG, measuring 49 cm long, 24 cm wide and 19 cm deep. Fit is set by the harness rather than by the bag: pick one of the two harness sizes, use the two-point adjustment to place it, then fine-tune with the adjustable sternum strap and the removable waist belt. Check the Aerios pack sizing chart against your torso length before you order. The shoulder straps are narrow, and several customers report pressure on the trapezius even under light loads.



What do the Hadron LCP fabric and the AeroForm back panel do?

The body of the Arc'teryx Aerios 18 Backpack is a 210d Hadron LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymer) grid face fabric at 161 gsm, made from 94% nylon and 6% polyarylate, and that is where most of the weight saving sits. High-wear contrast areas use a 100D SD Cordura nylon 6,6 with a Dobby face at 131 gsm, and the stretch panels are a 200 gsm Powernet of 72% nylon and 28% elastane. Behind the fabric sits the AeroForm back panel with an anti-barreling frame sheet, which keeps the load from bulging into your back when the single main compartment is loaded. Both outer fabrics and both lining fabrics carry the FC0 DWR finish.

How does the Aerios 18 work on a hiking day?

Hydration is the organising idea. The shoulder harness of the Arc'teryx Aerios 18 Backpack carries two zippered pockets sized for 500 ml soft flasks or a phone, so you drink and navigate without stopping, and a hydration port routes a tube outside the main compartment if you prefer a reservoir. The reservoir is sold separately and sits loose in the main compartment, because there is no hanging clip. Storage is deliberately minimal: one main compartment, a top pocket, two side pockets and an internal security pocket with a key clip. Several customers report that bottles over 1 litre do not stay put in the side pockets, so keep large bottles inside. For commuting use, note that brand support describes the internal sleeve as narrower than a typical 14-inch laptop footprint, so a 14-inch machine or larger would be very snug.

What is the Aerios 18 made of and how do you clean it?

Nylon does the structural work and polyester lines the interior: a 210d Hadron body, a 100D Cordura nylon 6,6 secondary fabric, Powernet stretch panels with elastane, an LT Ultra Mono Lightweight Mesh 900d lining and a 110 gsm 210D recycled polyester lining. Care on the Arc'teryx Aerios 18 Backpack is strictly surface cleaning: wipe it down with water and let it air dry. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, bleach, dry clean or iron it, because washing would compromise the frame sheet and the DWR finish. Brand support also notes that the mesh back panel can cause pilling on lightweight or loosely woven garments, so avoid wearing it directly over a fine merino or a thin wind shirt.

How sustainable is the Aerios 18 Backpack?

The primary fabric, the secondary fabric and the lining are all bluepass materials with the FC0 DWR finish, and the pack contains materials produced through processes that meet bluesign criteria. The finish is PFAS compliant, with no intentionally added PFAS. The lining includes recycled content. The pack is sewn at a Fair Trade Certified facility in Vietnam, with fabric and dyeing in Korea.

Many garments from Rossignol are treated with a durable water-repellent coating (DWR). This layer ensures that water droplets roll off the surface without restricting breathability. This makes the clothing suitable for wet and snowy conditions.
