The Outback 20 is a very compact, lightweight, versatile pack designed for multisport missions. It is great for fast packing on foot, scrambling, skiing or cycling. 20 liter capacity in the main compartment is augmented by the fast access elastic pockets on the sides. The load compression bungee straps allow layers to be cinched to the outside of the pack and tighten down to help with load shift and distribution when the pack is not full. The ventilated back is constructed from two soft tensioned bands of breathable mesh to reduce the contact area with the body and the separation creates a very comfortable channel for air flow. The padded hip belt is integrated into the ventilation system on the back to help position it for optimal comfort and air flow.
