Lowe Alpine AirZone Active 18 Backpack

The AirZone Active is a simple yet ingenious little pack designed primarily for hiking but will also work as a lightweight, comfortable travel and commuting pack thanks to its AirZone Lite carry system.

Crafted from super tough, yet lightweight, 210D ripstop nylon with a HydroShield water-resistant coating for an ultra lightweight, durable and weatherproof backpack that won't weigh you down or hold you back. This backpack has been engineered with Lowe Alpine's AirZone Lite system, a highly ventilated, comfortable and simple design that has been taken and simplified from their larger packs. It uses a layer of mesh suspended around an inch away from the actual body of the pack, resulting in a gap which air can continuously pass through to keep you feeling cool and fresh during wear. This not only increases ventilation but stops items in the pack jabbing you in the back and hurting the wearer. The shoulder straps feature a similar mesh on the inside for added grip and comfort whilst a chest strap and lightweight hip belt keep the pack securely in place during movement. This pack is not only incredibly comfortable and lightweight, but also has plenty of useful features to make your hikes and commute infinitely easier. The pack has ample storage, including as a front stash pocket, stretchy side water bottle pockets, a zipped top pocket, an internal zipped security pocket and a hydration sleeve for storing a water bladder. Other features include a key clip to keep your keys secure when taking things in and out of your pack, a light loop, a raincover, secure TipGripper walking pole attachment points, a safety whistle on the chest strap and some reflective graphics next to the logo - making this backpack a total all-rounder for convenience and comfort.
