Lowe Alpine AirZone Pro 35:45 Daypack

For year-round mountain adventures, the Airzone Pro 35:45 has plenty of space for all your gear and a back system which breathes, contours round your back and adjusts easily for a precise, comfortable fit.

Combining Lowe Alpine's AirZone ventilated back, Torso Fit Centro length adjustment and AdaptiveFit hipbelt, the AirZone Pro fits exactly around your back, shoulders and hips and promotes airflow between you and the pack. The result: out of this world levels of all day comfort.

It's not just about the harness though: the layout of the bag has been designed to make stowing and accessing your kit as easy as possible. The capacity increases from 35 to 45 litres to swallow the extra kit you need for longer days out and occasional overnights, stretch mesh pockets and a large front pocket team up with hipbelt and shoulder-harness pockets to help organise your gear, and an ingenious bungee system on the front securely hangs onto a wet jacket or unhooks and expands to carry a sleeping mat. To avoid having to unpack the top of the bag to get at buried items, a large zip allows access to the main body of the rucksack. Instead of being at the front or base as with more conventional designs however, the access panel is on the side: this way you avoid putting the back system on the ground where it could pick up mud and snow.
