UK backpack specialist Lowe Alpine has updated the AirZone Trail range for spring/summer 2023.
While keeping the features of the AirZone carry system, the eight packs for men and women feature a new carry system that the company said creates superior ventilation, breathability and comfort. The packs, designed for hiking and all-mountain adventures, are now available.
Based on lab and field testing, the new packs have undergone an update, which the company said results in greater comfort accompanied by a fresh design. The AirZone carry system’s new convection channel allows heat and warm air to escape out of the top. A vent hole between the user’s shoulders encourages heat dissipation, improving air flow, reducing heat build-up and keeping the back panel cooler than older models. Also, reducing the harness’ contact area by 10% helps keep the user comfortable. A new harness foam and construction provide ‘support and long-term performance.’
Tim Fish, Lowe Alpine product director, said, “The AirZone Trail packs are some of Lowe Alpine’s most recognised hiking packs. Updating this important range with some of our most advanced technologies and features is a huge step forward and make these packs a great choice for consumers looking for a highly comfortable, versatile pack for their outdoor adventures.”
The new AirZone Trail packs feature a 50% recycled nylon body fabric and a polyester lining fabric. All AirZone Trail packs are fluorocarbon free.
