Lowe Alpine Edge 26 Backpack

Product Information

The webbing sections of the hip belt adjust from the sides and have plastic sliders to retain excess strapping.

The backpack has plenty of pocket space with a security pocket on the top, side mesh pockets and many more. Alpkit’s Ledge 30 represents good value for money with a pack that includes pretty much all the features you need, and we had a soft spot for the retro style of the Craghoppers Kiwi 20. The body of the rucksack is made from recycled polyester with polyurethane coating to offer water resistance. As you’d expect from the brand, its green credentials are good, with recycled PET bottles used in part of its polyester content and no fluorocarbons used in the water-resistant treatment.There are twin walking pole or ice-axe attachment loops at the lower end of the pack, and an upper bungee arrangement to keep them in place.

These can be secured either by two top loops which are integrated into the upper compression straps, which again have metal hook buckles. The sternum strap’s height can be varied in six positions using a daisy-chain arrangement, which a fiddly to adjust while on the move. Rolling the top back three times allows the end buckles then to be fastened down into receptors on webbing straps on the pack’s sides.As a fairly small woman, I would have liked to see more consideration given to the weight of the packs.
