The DWR-treated zippers provide added moisture protection, although reviewers found them somewhat stickier than preferred. The top quick-grab pocket includes a bright red dedicated key clip that reviewers found easy to locate. Side compression straps can slim the pack without crossing compartments, while elastic keepers secure excess webbing.
