"A week-long backpacking trip basically guarantees at least one day of rain. Don't worry the waterproof Arc'teryx Naos 70 Backpack ensures your gear stays dry. Arc'teryx constructed this revolutionary pack with seam-taped waterproof VaporTight fabric and a roll-top closure to keep every drop of water from your gear. Water-tight zippers on the two front pockets and lid keep your smaller items dry, as well. The Naos 70 Backpack's Monoframe uses two aluminum stays for amazing support while its pre-formed shoulder straps and waist-belt provide unparalleled comfort.

It's so sleek and well built. The design is immaculate. The first thing I did was pack it with towels and have my friend spray me with a hose for 20 minutes to see if it was indeed fully waterproof."
