Description of The North Face Primero 70 Backpack - 3950-4600cu in:
|
The Primero 70 Backpack uses The North Face's vented back panel to provide excellent air circulation and keep you cool during scorching hot days on the trail. When the temperatures spike and your hiking partners look like they're ready to melt, you'll be nice and cool while air flows along your back. The Primero 70 Backpack's perforated waist-belt keeps your hips from overheating. The North Face also added the pivoting X Radial frame system to move with you as it supports loads up to 70lbs. *Not available for shipment to Canada.
|
|
Bottom Line: When your weekend hike falls on the hottest day of the year, make sure you're prepared with The North Face's Primero 70 Backpack.

| I've only had this pack for a few months, but I love it. Contrary to other reviewers, I was perfectly capable of finding the two nalgene-sized side pockets. The one large back pocket (with zip pocket) is great (depending on the circumstances) for your raingear, wallet, keys, or the ting that your hiking partner can't be bothered to put in the main compartment. The Compression straps work great, not only for crushing your stuff, but also for attaching things (like rolls of duct tape) to the outside of the bag. The brain is made from waterproof material, to keep your bits-and-bobs dry. As a whole, there's a lot of use of waterproof fabrics (though no pressure seal), so this pack does well in rainstorms, or sitting at the bottom of a boat (though not under submersion), and keeps your stuff dry to boot. The sleeping-bag pocket actually goes into the main compartment, with a retractable diaphragm to separate the two. The suspension is incredibly comfortable even under heavy loads: with a lazy group, I took 80lb up 10 miles and 3000' of elevation. I won't say that I didn't break a sweat, but the pack performed admirably. The airflow is pretty comfortable too. The hip straps use a change in webbing direction to help spread weight comfortably over your hips. The hip-flaps also have a convenient zipped-pocket. Both colour combinations are pretty sweet (though the green is cooler). |

| I haven't had this backpack for long, but it really is a great backpack. I haven't had a problem with my gear getting wet. The frame is amazing, it has great support and doesn't weight almost anything as far as backpacks go. It is the perfect size for everything that I have needed it for so far. I can get my tent, sleeping bag, wet suit all in it and still have a lot of room for other stuff like clothes and food. One really nice feature on this bag is that it has a special spot at the bottom for your sleeping bag that you can get to through the main compartment or there is a special zipper for it (it's also nice if you need to get at something you packed at the bottom of your bag. |
