With features such as three-litre hydration-bladder compatibility, a sternum strap with rescue whistle, integrated rain cover and external gear loops, the Columbia Ridge Runner 40-litre backpack is impressive.
The innovative compounds, mesh shoulder straps and Backdraft ventilation technology let cooling air flow between you and the pack. Now, that is cool.
