Built with trekking in mind, even long distances in pouring rain, the sleek Naos 45 trekking pack uses exclusive ARCTERYX technology to keep your gear dry and you comfortable. By reducing weight and increasing the weather-proofness, the Naos supports your load without weighing you down.
The worst rainstorm hasn't a chance of getting a drop of water on your weekend backcountry gear, when you pack it in the 2690cu inch Arc'teryx Naos 45. Seam-taped VaporTight fabric and a roll-top closure create a completely waterproof barrier. The two front compartments and lid utilize watertight zippers to keep the little stuff dry, as well. Arc'teryx built the Naos 45 Backpack with pre-formed shoulder straps and a pre-formed waist-belt that pivots on a Load Transfer Disk to eliminate chafing while you hike. Top it off with two aluminum stays and an ultralight Monoframe back panel, and the Naos 45 is one amazing overnight backpack. *Available for US shipment only.

Took this pack into the High Uintas of Utah over the weekend, and it felt great. I've been carrying an Arc'teryx Bora pack in the mountains for years, and the bora packs feel exceptional, however, they are on the heavier side. Here's the answer from Arc'teryx. The pack feels very close to the bora in terms the way it carries. I'm 5'10", 145lbs and the size regular is perfect. Big enough for a night or two in the summer, but I think I'll stick to my bora for pure backpacking trips. However, This pack will replace my old North Face Patrol pack everywhere else. This is a superb ski touring, day outing, ice climbing size and shape. The unique waist belt system feels great, and really moves with you. This will no be my go2 pack for nearly everything in the mountains! | |

| This is my second pack from the Arcteryx AC2 series, and considering that fact I have been very pleased. The Naos pack is similar to the acrux 65 I have except for the fact that it has the extra external pocket and the hip belt pivots. I have found the AC2 material to be highly durable and abbrasion resistant. The pack looks streamlined and sharp as well. The pack is easily compressed with 5 straps to do so on the main compartment. The only feature that the acrux pack has that I wish the Naos did is the elastic cord on the back that can be used to tie down a jacket, or whatever else you like. Though you cannot see it in the picture, the Naos' front outside pocket has a small hole in the bott | |

This thing is like what mermaids need | |

So if were a mermaid and I've never been one so this is all speculative - I'd buy one. When I got to land and needed to float to watch handsome beach-princes toss frisbees to dogs and blast gulls with bread crumbs I'd inflate the pack and use it as a flotation device. | |

Best pack ever | |

| Best suspension on a backpack ever, good thing they put it on a rather small pack, because small doesn´t necessarily mean lightweight. Things are easier to find thanks to the white interior. perfectly crafted! | |
