If you want reliability and durable design, the Lowe TFX Appalachian is the pack for you. It has the performance of a great pack with the features you’d expect from Lowe.
Like its TFX cousins the TFX Appalachian uses the Torso Motion frame and AdaptiveFit hipbelt and harness to provide as much comfort as possible. These systems allow the pack to react to the movements and shape of your torso thereby keeping the back and upper body strain to a minimum. The back is also ventilated to whisk wetness away and the supporting ridges provide strength for heavy loads. You can customize your fit further by adjusting the torso length anywhere from 16″ to 23″.
With its two compartments, the Lowe Appalachian is easy for organizing gear. There’s the separate sleeping bag lower compartment and the larger, main compartment. They can be kept separate using the zippered divider or joined for a larger interior. This comes in handy not only for keeping your sleeping separate but also dividing wet and dry gear. Additional storage is provided with side pockets, as well as the extendable lid which can expand the capacity of the pack to 5500 cubic inches. Combine this with pole chords, ice axe loops, and a front attachment system and you have one multi-purpose pack.
Other handy features include the removable rain cover and a SOS information panel on the lid’s underside that can help in those unexpected emergency situations.
Its design and well thought-out features makes the Lowe TFX Appalachian an ideal choice amongst serious backpackers. And let’s not forget style. It comes in three colors – Terracotta, Midnight Blue, and Pear.
