Men's Covert
Reviewed by Mitchell Cooper, Mar 31, 2008

"I purchased the L/XL (18 inch torso) version of this backpack for use snowboarding and I absolutely love it. It is by far the best snowboarding/skiing pack I have owned. I'm 6'3" and the L/XL size is perfect for me.

After two seasons of use, here are the things I appreciate most:

- clamshell design: I can open the main compartment zipper and lay the bag completely open and flat."
