Every detail of the ultra-light Latok 20 backpack has been optimized to keep volume and weight to a minimum while giving you complete freedom of movement during your mountain adventures. This top-loading 20-liter backpack is made from ultra-durable, abrasion-resistant Cordura fabric with Spectra Ripstop that resists abrasion from rocks and ice even in the most inhospitable terrain. The secure, body-hugging chest strap is fully adjustable and is made of Mono Mesh, which is 50% lighter and absorbs 70% less water than alternatives. This provides good air circulation and the weight is distributed comfortably over the entire back. The snow-repellent back panel keeps the pack consistently light, and the two loops with cord stoppers for ice axes make the pack suitable for any challenge you may face on the climb. Open the backpack with a drawstring and protect your gear with the weather-resistant lid flap. The webbing has a quick-release snap closure and is removable when more ballast needs to be removed. There are plenty of storage options, including gear attachment points, a rear zippered pocket, a security pocket for valuables on the inside, and webbing pockets for accessing your map, phone, or snacks on the go. The backpack is impregnated with a fluorocarbon-free DWR coating and lined with recycled material, has a slim cut to reduce weight and is perfect for alpinists* who need to make every gram count.
