Looks like a Simond crag 20 from decathlon. They used to make an orange one, best bags ever and only £15.

It's a Simond Cliff 20.  They are brilliant and withstand a lot of abuse 

They've stopped making them unfortunately 😞

Funny, mine is covered in a number of patches. They are (were?) very cheap and work great, but I've found don't take as much abuse as some other packs.

REI also had such... pricepoint and features really close to the Simond one from Decathlon.

It was actually available before Simond came out with it's one (I remember, as I had to bring quite a few of them from the States to my mates).

Rope carry system was rubbish though.

In reply to galpinos:

Pair it with an IKEA bag if you're so hard to please.

I've got one of them too - I think the model was (is?) the Flash? It's very slightly heavier than the Simond one I have IIRC.

Very good! I find I have to carry the rope in a mountaineers coil with the Simond pack (as I do with my Ascensionist 25L). Decent rope carries seem something or a rarity these days.......

There is a replacement, slightly bigger / heavier but has a much better rope carrying system and has a helmet holder.
