Know before you buy
Yes, the pack is designed to meet most international and domestic carry-on size restrictions, measuring 22 x 14 x 9 inches.
The pack features a dedicated, quick-access zippered sleeve that accommodates laptops and tablets up to 16 inches, keeping your tech secure and easy to reach at security checkpoints.
The harness, hipbelt, and backpanel can be zipped away behind a protective fabric flap. This creates a streamlined, duffel-like profile that prevents straps from snagging when checking the bag or storing it in tight spaces.
It is built for travel, featuring durable, bluesign-approved recycled fabrics and an adjustable torso fit for personalized comfort. While it lacks a hydration sleeve, the internal and external compression straps help stabilize heavy loads for extended wear.
Yes, the Farpoint 40 is compatible with the Farpoint/Fairview Daypack, allowing you to expand your total capacity if you need extra room for daily excursions.
The pack is treated with a PFAS-free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating, which provides water resistance against light rain and splashes. However, it is not fully waterproof, so you may want a rain cover for heavy downpours.
