Mountain Hardwear Pack First Look

Gear news in association with
eVent Fabrics

Oooh, sorry, that was a mean trick... full first impressions next week, but we're happy to admit that the sheer complexity of Mountain Hardwear's new pack design poses the question of whether it's innovation for innovation's sake or if it really does create a better pack.

For now though, take a look at some of those details, and yes, that really does seem to be a carbon fibre back plate riveted together with wee little allen bolts...

More next week...
