Material:
N400D PU2 Fabric: Since Arva's intent was to create a pack that will endure the worst weather conditions possible, they used N400D PU2 ripstop fabric for its waterproofness as well as its abrasion and tear resistance. All that along with a PFC-free coating.
Pockets:
Internal Pocket for Snow-Safety Gear: Since Arva fully understands the importance of being quick and efficient in a rescue situation, they built a specific compartment on the front of the pack for split-second access to your shovel and probe.
Dedicated External Pocket for Snow Safety Equipment
Dedicated External Pocket for Goggles or Small Valuables
Fit:
3D Fit: Arva's 3D-FIT system allows you to quickly adjust your pack to your fit preferences and body size for maximum comfort. After selecting S, M, or L, it takes just one pull to instantly adjust back height and shoulder strap length for the perfect fit.
52cm Long, Thermoformed Back Panel
Features:
Water-Resistant: To tackle the snow, rain, and any other wet environment, this pack is designed with YKK AquaGuard® zippers and N400D PU2 fabric. It is water resistant and will never let you down when the going gets tough.
Stowable Waist Belt: While essential for any up or downhill adventure, the waist belt can feel unwieldy on your everyday excursions around town. This is why Arva designed built-in compartments behind the back panel to fold up and stow the waist belt for even more streamlined pack.
Multi-Purpose Straps: A streamlined design means no longer having to compromise. Using Arva's Daisy Chain system and multi-purpose straps, this backpack is capable of carrying skis, a snowboard, ice axes, as well as any other piece of essential gear. When used for compression, these straps create a more streamlined and close fit on those outings when your pack is not fully loaded.
Thermoformed Back Panel with ALU-FIT Technology: Arva developed ALU-FIT technology to provide you with exceptional support and comfort. The more you wear your pack, the more the back panel molds to your physique for the perfect fit. Combined with our comfortable, water resistant, thermoformed form-fitting back panel, the ST30 will hug your back. If you are looking to shave off a little weight, you can remove the ALU-FIT system and save 50g.
