Trekking backpack - Men -
The Paragon 50 Rc Desert Red backpack from Gregory is an innovative men's backpack that fills the gap between ultralight minimalist packs and over-equipped backpacks.
This results in a comfortable and functional bag, ideal for day hikes. Its 50-litre capacity easily allows you to carry all your necessary gear. The alloy frame and its transverse reinforcements in fibreglass provide stable load management and good torsional flexibility.
It is equipped with the hybrid suspension system Freefloat, combining the lightness and fit of the mesh belt with the comfort and stability of a 3D AirCushion back panel, ensuring excellent contact and better back ventilation. The best of both worlds combined in one pack. For even more comfort, the back system and belt are adjustable to become one with the Paragon 50.
On the practical side, there is a removable top pocket with a large zippered compartment, expandable mesh pockets on both sides, one with side access. A drawcord closure with upper strap compression is present for the main pocket. New this year, a stretch mesh pocket has been added on the left shoulder strap to slide in a pair of glasses, a small water flask, or even a snack, while a side zip allows easier access to the main compartment.
Ultra-functional, it is compatible with the 3D Hydro Reservoir hydration system and features a rain cover with its dedicated pocket. The QuickStow system allows you to attach your sunglasses to the shoulder strap for quick access. A fixing loop is present to carry your poles or ice axes. Finally, this pack contains a zippered bottom compartment for the sleeping bag with a removable divider.
The sleek design, light weight, and numerous features of the Paragon 50 Rc make it a versatile and dynamic pack that will accompany you effortlessly on all your adventures.
