Traverse S 28L Dry Backpack

TPU Coating stands for Thermoplastic Polyurethane, a flexible and durable material that makes your backpack waterproof and resistant to abrasions. This means that if you’re caught in the rain or hiking through wet conditions, your belongings will stay dry and protected, enhancing the longevity of your backpack.

A hydration compatible backpack is designed to hold a hydration reservoir or bladder, allowing you to drink water easily while on the move. This feature is perfect for hiking, biking, or any outdoor activity where staying hydrated is essential, as it eliminates the need to stop and dig out a water bottle.

The A-frame Ski Carry allows you to securely carry your skis in an "A" shape against the sides of your backpack. This design stabilizes the skis while you hike or climb, making it ideal for backcountry skiing where you need to navigate challenging terrain without losing your gear.

Welded Seams are created by fusing the fabric together using heat and pressure instead of traditional sewing. This technique results in a stronger and more waterproof seal, preventing water from seeping into your backpack through the seams. It enhances the overall durability and weather resistance of the pack.

Compression Straps are adjustable straps on the sides of the backpack that can be tightened to reduce the bulk of your load. By keeping the pack streamlined, they make it easier to carry and maneuver, especially when the backpack isn’t fully loaded. This feature is particularly useful for maintaining balance and comfort during your adventures.

Absolutely! Many backpacks are designed with features that cater to both hiking and skiing. With options like hydration compatibility, A-frame ski carry, and durable materials like TPU coating and welded seams, you can confidently use your backpack for a variety of outdoor activities, ensuring you’re prepared for any adventure.
