Nathan Expedition AR Pack

This is a great choice for an expedition adventure racing pack! Lots of these features are new and innovative, and make this pack comfortable for the long haul. We were able to try this pack before it even made it out of production, and were immediately impressed. The capacity of this pack is huge, and the design is so versatile that you can snug it in or pack it full, the pack remains compact and easy to run with. The design is thoughtful as to the needs of racers -- to be able to access or stow your gear with speed. Its exoskeleton design lifts the weight off your shoulders and puts it back on your waist and legs where it belongs.
