Arc'teryx Maia 50 Backpack - 2865-3234cu in - Women's

The Arc'teryx Maia 50 Women's Backpack holds plenty of gear for a three-day trip and carries comfortably. Oh yeah, did we mention it's completely waterproof? That's right. The Maia 50 Backpack uses waterproof 420ACT fabric, seam-sealed construction, and a roll-top closure to keep out every speck of moisture. Arc'teryx included a pivoting waist-belt and adjustable shoulder straps to ensure this overnight backpack fits correctly as you hike in the rain or snow. This ultra-sleek design also includes a low-profile front pocket and two lid pockets to keep your necessities organized.

Bottom Line: Weather protection for your gear and comfort for you—all compliments of the Arc'teryx Maia 50 Women's Backpack.

The Maia has the identical pivoting hipbelt, and suspension (dual alum. stays laminated to foam/plastic framesheet) as the Naos. Just proportioned differently to fit a womens body. One of the best packs made

I am pretty sure that the hip-belt pivots, and has nothing special for suspension, just adjustable straps. Great pack, my friend loves hers.

Good Pack

By:

I should start off by saying I am a man, not a woman. But weighing less than 120 pounds with a 28 inch waist the men's version of this pack did not fit right -- especially in the hip belt.
Downsides: (1) The pack is not especially light -- and I felt it on the trail. If you want a light pack get an Osprey. (2) The pack is quite expensive -- you'd have to look hard to find more pricey gear at 50 liters. This pack is for the truly self indulgent (yep, that's me).
Upsides: (1) It's waterproof. (2) It has a simple, clean design without all those fussy little details that crowd cheaper gear trying hard to look expensive. (3) It's tough and very well made. (4) It looks great.
The colors are a bit of a stretch -- I wouldn't be seen carrying a lime green pack and I'm quite in touch with my "feminine side." But the sapphire one was tolerable yet distinctive.
I wish I was buying the thing now -- $50 off regular price is better than a kick in the teeth.

I was wondering if this pack has an optional, detachable day

I was wondering if this pack has an optional, detachable day pack that I can take with me on smaller treks?

Finally, a cute backpack

By: Backcountry.com Employee

I love Arc'teryx packs, always have. When it was time to replace my old one, I went straight to the Arc'teryx options. When I bought my first one ages ago, there were no women's options, and there were black or black. Now, with women's specific packs and cute colors, I want to use it all the time. Men, take note, get your girl a cute pack and she'll want to go out more! Anyway, this pack is spectacular! The fabric was super waterproof and durable. It was actually light too. My old one was 1/3 of my weight and this guy was like a feather! The zippers are all sealed and nice. I got the lime color and it is too cute!

One piece of advice I would offer is to try setting up the order yourself with the cart and telling it where you want it shipped, which will tell you exactly how much it will cost without actually paying. The Live Chat Gearheads are also supremely helpful and could tell you as well. The other piece of advice is to express yourself in complete sentences. Use your words.
