Mountainsmith - Apex 60 Backpack | Outdoor Gear Exchange

Like a good dance move, efficient pack carry starts with the hips. The Apex 60 is built with Mountainsmith's Tuning Fork Waistbelt, designed to cup the iliac crest hip bone for a more dynamic fit and improved load transfer. Increased padding on the lumbar pad and their signature Delta Load Compression System stabilize and transfer weight for more efficient and comfortable carry. With a seamless shoulder strap construction (no seams or hard edges means no digging into the body), increased padding on the waistbelt, adjustable torso range, and a hex-ridged backpanel, the 2019 Apex 60 offers unmatched comfort on every adventure. On trail, the advanced, tubular aluminum frame keeps the weight lower without sacrificing performance.
