The EXPED Torrent 45 is a gear-swallowing, super-durable workhorse pack that will go nearly anywhere in any conditions. It has been used for canoeing and kayaking, rafting, sailing, day hiking, canyoning, mountaineering, all-weather overnight backpacking, caving, bikepacking, travel, commuting, multi-pitch rock climbing, ice climbing and a variety of professional outdoor uses. Along the way, it has been hauled, lowered, dropped, dragged, overloaded, soaked, frozen and just plain abused. Torrent 45 has enough of a suspension system to control a load and transfer it to the hips, but not so much so as to be cumbersome in tight spaces. Extremely durable, comfortable and versatile -blammo!
