Introduction
My favourite backpack for the last few years has been the Zpacks Nero… will the Arc Air change that. This NEW kid on the block has a different fabric, greater volume, and weight load capacity. I have created a video review and share my thoughts.

Conclusion
It’s a great pack. But I still prefer backpacking without a hip belt.
The Arc Air is created and designed to be used with a belt exclusively, and hip-belt-less is not an option. So I will be sticking with my Nero on most trips for now.

However, if you need a quality light pack, that comfortably carries a volume over 40L and weighs more than 18lbs… put the Zpacks Arc Air on your wish list!

| What Zpacks Says… From those gruelling East Coast ascents to long water carries across the desert, the Arc Air is a durable pack designed to be the ultimate combination of simplicity and function. Featuring custom Curved Carbon Fiber Air Stays, the Arc Air creates a gap between your back and the pack without the need for a mesh back panel. The frame transfers weight to your hips, keeping the weight off of your shoulders and providing a comfortable fit. The ROBIC® version of the Arc Air is highly durable and provides added abrasion resistance over the DCF version. Featuring adjustable shoulder straps, an interchangeable belt, and a variety of optional modular add-ons, the Arc Air is sure to become your pack of choice. From website >> Zpacks |
