DAC Featherlite Poles

DAC Featherlite Poles

Found in 3-Season and Ultralight Tents, DAC Featherlite poles are up to 15% lighter than aluminum poles of comparable strength, Plus, Featherlite poles are less susceptible to failure because pole linkages are based on extrusion instead of glued-in inserts. Without the extra insert piece, there is less chance of breakage.

E-Vap

Eliminating weight and improving breathability wherever possible, packs utilizing E-VAP foam in the shoulder straps, back panels and hipbelts offer a comfortable fit and keep the wearer's back dry. Perforated E-VAP foam panels encourage air circulation, improving both breathability and evaporation, preventing the damp, clammy feeling where the back and pack meet.

X-Radial Suspension

The North Face X Radial suspension system marks a truly revolutionary approach to pack support. Thoroughly tested and athlete endorsed, this suspension system is composed of an aluminum flex frame, an anatomically precise, structurally sound truss and a central X-hub with a freely articulating axis. X Radial conforms to hiker's natural, non-linear swaying motion. By mirroring the complex descending radii created by opposing hips and shoulders, X Radial eliminates the additional burden of kinetic friction that packs typically induce. In the Primero packs, X Radial works in tandem with highly specialized, EVA-injection molded foam back panels. The supportive and ventilating back panels share the same durable, shape retaining, and comfortable characteristics utilized in The North Face EVA footwear. They also address the varied terrain of the human back to achieve superb performance, mile after mile.
