Product Description
Osprey Kode 30 Pack: Sports & Outdoors. Surrounded by heat, endless bustle, and vibrant energy, Team Vietnam designs and builds Osprey packs to the company's exacting standards. A great all-around snowplay pack, the Osprey Kode 30 backpack is appropriate for everything from three-hour snowshoe hikes to all-day backcountry tours. The first thing that stands out about the pack is the variety of gear-carrying options. The Kode 30 carries your skis in a diagonal, A-frame, or vertical orientation. You can use the dual, lower-reinforced ski carry loops and upper-reinforced V-carry straps to tote your skis in an A-frame style, or you can strap your skis diagonally to either the right or left side. If skiing isn't your sport, you can also use the reinforced V-carry straps to vertically attach snowboards or snowshoes. All Kode series packs also come equipped with dual, articulated, zippered hip belt pockets designed for one-handed operation. And should you get caught in inclement weather, the Kode 30 features a panel-zip avalanche gear compartment, with a probe, shovel handle sleeves, shovel blade stowage, and a pocket for a snow/repair kit. The fleece-lined goggle pocket keeps your goggles safe while you hike. Most importantly, the pack is extremely comfortable to wear, with an EVA foam torso-fixed harness with adjustable sternum straps, a fixed EVA foam hip belt with taped edges, and a LightWire frame that supports heavier loads while preserving flex. Other key features include a fleece-lined goggle pocket that keeps your goggles safe; a stowable helmet panel that lets you carry your helmet on the uphill track; a single ice axe loop that works with the upper V-carry straps to secure your ice tool; and an internal sewn-in hydration sleeve with a reservoir hanger. The sleeve also includes a fully insulated, dual-zippered harness router with a hypoallergenic stretch garage to ensure hassle-free hydration. The Kode 30 offers 30 liters (1,800 cubic inches) of storage, weighs 3 pounds 3 ounces without gear, and carries a lifetime warranty. About Osprey Things at Osprey move full circle, starting with the people, moving to the product, and then back again to the people for the lifetime of the product. Company founders Mike Pfotenhauer and Laurie White started the company in 1974 in Santa Cruz, California, introducing such features in the next few years as breathable mesh panels, custom-fit internal frame mountaineering packs, and slide adjustable chest straps. The company moved to a former Gore-tex factory in Dolores, Colorado, in 1990, and then to Cortez, Colorado, in 1994. Nestled in the corner of the rugged San Juan mountains and on the edge of vast sandstone canyon country, the Cortez landscape provides the Osprey team with constant inspiration and a superb testing ground for the packs. The remainder of the team, including Osprey founder and head designer Pfotenhauer, reside in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Living in HCM City provides many benefits, including the ability to ensure fair labor standards for the company's employees and establish face-to-face relationships with the factories that build the company's packs.
