A smaller volume, tough and tested traditional alpine specialist built with bomber technical textiles that won’t tip the scale. Strippable components allow it to be lightened even further. New Arc’on™ suspension system rides comfortably over all terrain and bolsters a load larger than the usual.

Overall Lightweight

The lightest weight, most comfortable alpine backs in the Arc'teryx line-up, Nozone backs use C2 (composite construction) suspension, a construction technology that uses fewer layers in a laminated back panel that is fused directly into the bag.

Framed for Comfort

Nozone packs have removable aluminum stays – rigid and lightweight bars that provide additional structural support. These stays can be removed to reduce overall weight without compromising comfort.

Climbing Heritage

A tough and tested traditional alpine specialist, the Nozone puts climbing first. Extendable collar and removable top lids accommodate extra gear and the opportunity to reduce weight. P 'ax ice tool carry systems are simple, efficient and can be fastened with one hand.

Mountaineering

An A-frame configuration for carrying skis on all three Nozone volumes: 35L, 55L and 75L. Bora series hipbelt is thermoformed, comfortable with weight over long distances. Dual haul loops, compression straps and bungee system on the front make it easy to carry, compress and stash layers en route.
