New Patagonia Lightweight Cinch Pack is Rad

The new Patagonia Cinch Pack is a clean, 20-litre top-loading bag that is designed to keep your gear organized. “A simple, single-pull main closure makes loading a cinch and a zippered stash pocket and ample carrying capacity in the roomy main compartment holds plenty of gear; micro daisy chain provides various lash points for any needed accessories.”

The pack is hydration-system compatible. It is made of 7.1-oz 210-denier 100 per cent nylon ripstop with a TPU-film laminate and a DWR (durable water repellent) finish and weighs 479 g.

The Cinch will be a great multi-pitch climbing pack for long rock routes in the Rockies or on the West Coast. It is part of Patagonia’s Black Hole pack line for 2017.
