CONTENTS
Spacious North Face Backpack
From The North Face, the Iron Peak Backpack is a practical and spacious storage option. A bright bike-light loop for visibility at night, handy side water bottle pockets, and a quick stash front pocket for simple storage are all key features of the Iron Peak Backpack.
When it comes to carrying features that are both supportive and comfortable, the Iron Peak excels. Like the North Face Borealis, the Iron Peak Backpack, is designed with ergonomic shoulder straps and a cushioned air mesh back panel to ensure optimum support and ventilation.
Designed to endure, TNF’s Iron Peak Backpack is constructed of durable 500D Cordura. Extra protection is provided by the Iron Peak’s tough nylon lining on the inside. It is also worth noting that all The North Face products are backed by a Lifetime Product Warranty against material and manufacturing flaws.
Stylish and practical, the Iron Peak Backpack is a great way to keep your belongings organized. Comparing the Iron Peak Backpack to a similar TNF option, such as the Recon Backpack, the Iron Peak Backpack offers a lighter and more streamlined carrying profile. The Iron Peak’s laptop compartment is also padded and fleece-lined for additional device protection.
