Though slightly larger than the average koala cub, the 680 cubic inch, foam framed Wookey Shovel Pack throws a unique spin into the small daypack world. Designed as a short outing pack, this high riding pack is ideal for on piste ripping with the occasional dash into the wilds. Retail: $143 www.wookey.netThe waist band on the high riding Shovel Pack actually secures just beneath the rib cage and though strange at first, any awkwardness induced by the uncommon fit is out the door in a hurry. With it's sublime fit, maneuverability in the trees is as good as it gets with a small pack. The Shovel pack features unique ski, snowboard, and shovel carrying systems that fasten to the pack's exterior for super quick loading, and unloading. Other attributes include hydration system compatibility with hose ports in either shoulder harness, and a small internal stash pocket. This year's pack will feature upgraded foam in the frame and harness, and a newly reinforced bottom. Wookeys are made in Bozeman, Montana. {easycomments} |
