This includes a hydration bladder hanger, four external compression straps, an accordian front pocket, a key clip, lightweight ski attachments, two external daisy chains, two ice axe holders and watertight zippers. Heavy loads are stabilized through the V-frame suspension system and strong frame-to-belt integration. To make sure you’re comfortable throughout your climb, Arc’Teryx uses Thermoformed back panels and shoulder straps. The Needle comes in 3 different sizes with the following specs: Small: 4 lbs 3 oz, 3722 cubic inches expandable to 4150 cubic inches, Medium: 4 lbs 6 oz, 3844 cubic inches expandable to 4272 cubic inches, Large: 4 lbs 10 oz, 3966 cubic inches expandable to 4394 cubic inches.

The Buyer’s Guide is available on newsstands October 2.

With comprehensive reviews of more than 300 proven products, the Winter Outside Buyer’s Guide is the authoritative handbook for the latest active-lifestyle gear and apparel as well as the top resorts, lodges, and hot spots for the winter season. The Buyer’s Guide highlights the very best in adventure gear, from sports equipment, tools, and gadgets to footwear, outerwear, and sunglasses. Organized according to sport and activity, the Buyer’s Guide is the ultimate resource for product reviews, technology news, and tips.

“We tested ski jackets and packs in Europe and snowshoes in Vermont, and last spring our largest crew of experts spent a week at Colorado’s Copper Mountain reviewing the latest skis, snowboards, boots, gloves, and more, including après shoes and casual apparel,” said Outside senior editor Sam Moulton. “And that’s just the start. On snow-packed trails and backcountry slopes across the country, our testers throttled everything from winterized trail runners to telemark and alpine-touring setups.”

The Buyer’s Guide has also devoted a section to gear designed and tested specifically for women. Outside is the first national magazine to give such significant space and resources to a women’s guide of this type.
