Lightweight Water-Repellant Materials
Top Loaders share the same lightweight, water-resistant materials as our backpack lines. The black colorway is made with the same material we use for Action X & Explore packs, while Boa comes in our Urban Explore textile. This ensures the same reliable and consistent quality and performance for both urban and mountain scenarios. They also make a handsome match when traveling.
