Moustiquaire

Like any LTT product, I trust the quality and effort put into this rain cover, and I believe the price is justified due to the cost of engineering and manufacturing. However, for the price, I would have preferred that the design had a bit more of a cachet—like creating a rainbow northern lights effect when exposed to rain in daylight—or some other engineered concept, such as external pockets with YKK zippers built in, even if it increased the cost. Given that if I am going to be paying $39.99, I might as well pay a bit more for some extras to justify the high price.

As for the existing features, the only thing I don't like is the mechanism for tightening the cover. For some reason, it feels a bit cheap, and although this is purely speculative for now, I worry that the woven thread part of it will loosen or fray over time. I would have preferred something more durable and easier to tighten than the existing woven thread and push device. My concern comes from experience with similar products where the thread frays over time. However, take this complaint with a grain of salt because nothing has happened yet.

Now, on to the reason I give this backpack five stars:

The good:
I love the innovation of creating a beautiful design that not only looks great but also improves visibility in low-light conditions. The design looks absolutely awesome when illuminated by a flashlight or other external lights. I also appreciate how comfortably it fits—without a strap going down my back and causing discomfort, as some competing rain covers do. Most importantly to me, it comes with an external carrying pouch for storage, so I don’t have to put anything wet inside my backpack or risk misplacing it. The carrying pouch feels high-quality, easy to store, and simple to attach to my backpack.

Overall, despite my complaints, I find this to be a great rain cover and only wish it had a few minor improvements or additional features.

This is a top-notch quality rain-cover, and having it be reflective is perfect for the Icelandic winters.

My only gripe is I wish more thought had been put into how the carrying pouch attaches to the bag. I managed to secure it better using a small key-ring I had lying around, but by default it flops around way too much

First, the good things:
It works well as intended. I use it on my mountain bike and it has held up very well after a few days in intense rain.
The design looks very cool and I feel safer at night with some added reflective surfaces.

The bad:
I think it is a bit big and could fit more snuggly, but there may be a reason for this.
Also IT REALLY SMELLS. It smells so much, I am taking away 3 stars from the rating. The smell is overwhelmingly strong, comparable to fresh fish (not rotten, but very intense). I am using this for my travel to work sometimes and I have to pack it up before I go inside. I tried to wash it with something mild and it did help a bit but not much.

Great quality and fit, luv its own storage bag

Working as intended, protects the backpack from rain and hasn't flown off yet. Also love the high visibility markings for riding my bike in the morning.
