For those who go prepared, the choice between a vest and backpack often comes down to what you can afford to leave behind. Now, compromise is a thing of the past. The Ridgeline Tech Pack offers both a vest-style front, and a backpack, including all the space you'll need to get in earlier, and stay out longer. Up front, numerous interior and exterior pockets ensure everything you bring has its place. To the rear, a spacious yet lightweight backpack holds your extra gear, lunch, a raincoat, and even offers space for a hydration reservoir. Compromise is just another term for mediocrity, so don't settle for less.
