Mountain Equipment Fang 35+ Backpack

The Mountain Equipment Fang 35+ is a 35 litre all-round mountaineering pack, as at home cragging as on big alpine faces. Its traditional floating lid is fully removable, so the pack can be loaded up for mountain trad days or stripped back for challenging alpine routes. Robic nylon resists tears and abrasion and adds weather resistance.

Key Features

• 35-litre optimum capacity with a dual-stage drawcord closure for weather protection and overstuffing
• M420 Robic® N66 Carbonate fabrics throughout, abrasion resistant, tough and water resistant
• Fully removable floating lid with a durable aluminium Grappler™ buckle closure

Mountain Equipment quotes a minimum weight of 860 g and a maximum of 1,250 g, reflecting how much of the pack is removable. The double drawcord top closure is what gives it weather resistance in adverse conditions.
