Taking its name from the wind-scoured landscapes of Chile's Region XI, the double-compartment Patagonia Aysen Pack is built to carry a day's worth of gear. Its generous main pocket holds most of the freight, as well as up to a 17-inch laptop in a raised, padded sleeve that has a tube port and accepts a hydration reservoir when you leave the laptop and city behind. A second compartment organizes pens, daily supplies, etc., and comes with a lanyard to secure your keys. A zippered external pocket secures incidentals, and a zippered microfleece-lined pocket protects sunglasses or an audio device. Stretch-woven pockets carry water bottles; compression straps stabilize the load. Airflow mesh on the shoulder straps keep shoulders cooler and the sternum strap has an emergency whistle. Made from 420-denier 100% nylon oxford plain weave with an 840-denier 100% ballistics nylon bottom. The lining is 200-denier 100% polyester. All fabrics have a Deluge DWR (durable water repellent) finish.
