If Snow Peak’s objective with their Alk Waist Bag was to provide as many storage options in the most compact package possible, they’ve passed with flying colours. The main compartment, ample on its own, is bolstered by a multitude of auxiliary pockets. There’s two large mesh pocket at the front and rear, two mesh water bottle pockets, internal and external zipped pockets and two zipped security pockets on the bag’s belt. A lot of pockets, we’re sure you’ll agree. Aside for storage space, the style is constructed from some tensile and robust nylon ripstop that promises years of use.
