Description of The North Face Skareb 65 Backpack - 3480cu in:
|
A backpack with all kinds of comfort features isn’t much good if it weighs ten pounds (empty). The North Face Skareb 65 Backpack combines X Radial suspension and a molded EVA back panel at a modest 3lb 12oz. Durable parachute nylon fabric shrugs off trail beatings, the molded E-Vap foam lumbar panel channels airflow while you hike, and the anatomically contoured hip-belt disperses load pressure. Stash rain gear in the large front stretch pocket and secure your trekking poles to the Spectra pole loops when you hit flat ground.
|
|
Bottom Line: Because it’s hard to keep weight down when your pack is heavy from the get-go.

| I've have used the original version of the Skareb for 3 or 4 years, and have always liked the suspension and feel of the pack. I was not a huge fan of the roll top, and in general the exterior of the pack was a bit busy. North Face seems to have solved all of this issues with the current Skareb. I usually have to spend quite a bit of time and 2 or 3 trips to really get the suspension dialed in, but on a recent trip to the Tetons, this pack felt just about perfect with very little adjustment. I also liked the larger size moving up to 65 liters. I really like the approach of building a lighter weight pack, but not sacrificing all of the durability, and still having a legitimate suspension. Very nicely done- still the great feel of the last generation, with nice updates to the back pannel and much cleaner pack body. They took my favorite pack and made it better. |

| I have used this pack on a few weekend hikes so far and am very pleased with the quality of the material and the build of the pack itself. I was a bit concerned the material was too thin and light and on one of my trips i tore a hole about the size of a dime in the front stretch pocket but it hasn't spread even after stuffing and removing gear over and over again. I am particularly happy with the shoulder and waist belts and how close and snug it rides to my body. The only issue i have is i am not sure if i like the X radial Suspension frame, I know it can hold a load of thirty pounds comfortably but i tried to remove it just to experiment and i dont think that is an option without damaging the bag. Does anyone know if this is at all possible? Simply put, i like this pack, It does what it is supposed to do. |
