More than a sized-down men's pack, this pack's suspension is engineered to fit a woman's build.

  • New name, same pack! The women's Bora packs now get their own name: Briza
  • Features state-of-the-art suspension for comfort, plus enough storage capacity for multiday trips
  • Main compartment offers both top-loading and side-zipper access, plus a separate sleeping bag compartment
  • V-stay suspension system with load-transfer rods helps distribute the load evenly between shoulders and hips
  • Four-layer foam in the laminated hipbelt is thermo-formed to match the shape of a woman's hips; adjustable angle lets each hiker fine-tune the fit
  • Thermo-formed foam backpanel with ventilation channels and contoured, dual-density padded shoulder straps enhance comfort
  • High-density polyurethane (HDPE) framesheet protects your back from bulky and pointy items and supports heavy loads
  • Injection-molded external occipital cavity creates a permanent 3D space for full head mobility
  • Large self-draining front kangaroo pocket is handy for stowing wet, bulky gear
  • Laminated internal kangaroo pocket protects contents from water, dirt and other elements
  • Eliminating zipper flaps, the easy-to-use WaterTight™ zippers are designed for protection in extremely wet weather
  • Removable lid pocket becomes a waistpack, perfect for hikes away from camp
  • Underside of lid features a hydration zip pocket for holding a reservoir plus an exit port for its drinking tube (reservoir sold separately)
  • Two side mounted water bottle carrier pockets are stowable in side pockets when not in use
  • Includes dual daisy chains, wand pockets and ice axe/tool loops for carrying gear outside the pack
  • Four external compression straps let you cinch down loads for jostle-free carrying
  • Made of RipStorm™ nylon and 420-denier WaterTight™ fabric, with an impregnated polyurethane backing, for abrasion- and water-resistance

        Comments about Arc'Teryx Briza 62 Pack - Women's:

        although a little heavier than i would have liked, the pack really is more comfortable to wear and use than the smaller men's bags i've owned. while easy to load, the lack of pockets makes unloading (or finding somehting you didn't realize you'd need) a bit of a chore. the plus side to that being my loads have generally been well balanced and all the weight stays in close to my body. another little nit-picky thing: the water bottle pocket on the detatchable lid/fanny pack thing is too small for a nalgene!! what's up with that?! given the opportunity to buy it again, would i? yes. would i wait for it to go on sale? for sure.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

        Comments about Arc'Teryx Briza 62 Pack - Women's:

        My girlfriend spent over two hours trying on packs in REI. After trying the various offerings from REI, Gregory, Kelty, and Osprey, she couldn't find anything that fit correctly (I'm quite experienced in fitting packs). I was hesitant to try this pack because of the price, but on a whim I picked it up, packed it, and had her put it on. After setting the straps correctly, she asked me to shift all the weight to her waistbelt. I did so, but she repeated her request. It felt so comfortable that she couldn't feel the difference. You won't remember the great price you got on a pack if it feels terrible 25 miles into a 50 mile trek. If nothing else fits, at least give this pack a shot!

          Comments about Arc'Teryx Briza 62 Pack - Women's:

          I bought this pack for my 14 year old daughter to use on backcountry trips we take together. This pack (called the Bora 62 when I bought it) has everything a hardcore packer could want. The side pockets could be a little larger and easier to access, that is my only complaint. Take note that the pack is on the heavy side, but it's worth the extra weight for the ruggedness of the pack. I use the Bora 80 myself and all these comments apply to that pack as well.

            This pack is amazing! I am spending a year at a wilderness school in Montana, and have never backpacked before. [...] The students and staff are all envious of it, and have named it "The Giant" because it holds so much, and has a perfect spot for everything I need. I especially love the camel pack feature.

            Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
