Know before you buy
Yes, it is designed for street-to-summit versatility. The 22-liter capacity and organized layout handle daily essentials like a laptop or tablet, while the technical features like the Airscape back panel make it equally capable on the trail.
The Airscape back panel is designed for high ventilation, using a ridged foam structure that allows air to circulate between your back and the pack. It significantly reduces sweat buildup compared to standard flat-panel backpacks.
Yes, the Talon 22 is hydration reservoir compatible. It features an internal sleeve specifically designed to hold a bladder, allowing you to stay hydrated during longer outdoor excursions.
The pack is made from high-tenacity nylon, which is durable and resistant to abrasions. While the white color will show dirt more easily than darker tones, the material is easy to wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap.
The continuous-wrap Biostretch harness and hip belt are designed to move with your body. This creates a stable, close-to-body fit that prevents the pack from shifting or bouncing, even when you are scrambling or hiking at a fast pace.
The dual-zippered hip belt pockets are sized for small essentials like energy gels, keys, or a multi-tool. While they may fit a compact phone, larger modern smartphones might be a tight squeeze.
