Arc'teryx Bora 80 Backpack - 4390-5000cu in
Well-Made, Well-Designed Pack
By Anonymous
Ranked #692 - Weeklong Packs (Over 4500 cu in)
March 29, 2007
This pack is one of the most well made and most comfortable packs that I have used. The weight is evenly distributed so you keep excellent balance while hiking. The Price is well worth the quality. The zippers are waterproof sealed, and the hip and shoulder harnesses are well padded. If you are someone who packs light this might not be for you, as it has a large volume and weighs more than other packs in its volume class. I highly recommend this pack for someone who does weeklong trips, with lots of miles hiking. I have gone on weeklong solo trips and was able to pack all my gear including tent, bag, pad, food, and other essentials without having to strap anything onto the outside. A great overall pack if comfortability and quality is a priority.
