Rab Syclon XP 28L ND Waterproof Women's Backpack

Fully waterproof and highly ventilated, this 28L ND pack slashes weight and gets the air flowing, ideal for ultralight missions in unpredictable weather.

Every gram of the Syclon XP has been carefully considered, shaving weight wherever possible to create an ultralight pack for minimalist hikers. Built with narrower dimensions, the Syclon XP 28ND is ideal for women or those with smaller frames. The backpack is fully waterproof and tested to an IPX4 rating, which further reduces weight by eliminating the need for dry bags or a rain cover. The waterproof main compartment is designed to keep your kit dry in heavy rain, with waterproof fabric and taped seams preventing rain or moisture from seeping in. The main compartment can be accessed through the roll-top entry, which allows the pack to expand and compress as you work through your supplies. The body-contouring, ventilated AEROFIT carry system allows plenty of airflow to your back and provides a seamless fit, keeping you comfortable and your load stable at fast paces and over long distances. The backpack uses a zipped rear compartment, which is great for your water bladder or for keeping a wet shell separate from your dry gear, while the front stash pocket and side water bottle pockets are made from a robust, durable fabric and provide quick access to your essentials. That's not all, further storage space is provided through easy-reach chest-strap storage, hipbelt pockets and space for a soft flask. Walking pole attachments are also included to provide a space for poles when not in use. Completing the Syclon 30 Backpack are side compression straps to cinch the pack securely, preventing items from moving around inside. This pack is ready for the range of conditions you might encounter on the mountain, from high heat to driving rain. The Syclon XP is built for alpine hut-hopping and thru-hiking long-distance trails.
