The Lowe Alpine company (history of the band) is an American manufacturer of tourist and city backpacks. In the 2021 season, they released a new collection of backpacks and bags from the Rock series, designed for rock climbing and mountaineering. The basis of the line is a reliable and comfortable suspension system, super-strong materials and thoughtful design, functionality.

The new Tri-Flex ™ suspension system is based on three elements:

  • Spring-loaded aluminum / steel frame of the backpack, reinforced with a sheet of high-density polyethylene built into the back
  • External molded EVA back with anatomical relief
  • Double-density foam shoulder straps and double-density EVA foam waist belt

As for the design of the new series of backpacks for climbing, Lowe Alpine engineers tried to consider all possible expectations of potential users.

This model of the Rock series is designed for traditional climbing and allows you to comfortably carry a fully loaded backpack to remote routes.

A zipper on the side of the back opens full access to the main compartment, and a folding flap on the zipper makes it possible to top load the backpack with the necessary equipment. A spacious top pocket and an external side pocket with zippers, an internal zippered pocket with a carabiner for keys, two large mesh pockets on the sides of the backpack and an internal pocket on the flip-up back give you the opportunity to conveniently arrange all the necessary small items. The upper compression straps are designed with an elongated sling and are equipped with fastex, which allows you to conveniently fix the rope on top of the backpack, and the side compression straps will help to securely fix it.
