Why Aarn Packs?

Why Aarn Packs?

Check Out Our Pack Range

Aarn flow bodypacks are the most efficient, comfortable, stable, practical and healthy way to carry load on the human body. They challenge traditional thinking on pack design. These packs are based on bio-mechanics to eliminate the extra leverages on the body due to offset load.

TECHNOLOGY

Traditional backpacks significantly disturb the posture, balance and movement of the body by creating leverages on the torso that act to disturb the natural curve of the spine. Traditional backpacks are a stressful and energy wasting way to carry a load, as you are continuously trying to counterbalance the load. Real break-throughs in load carrying technology, which Aarn has made, only come by basing the design process on the findings of bio-mechanics and ergonomics.

Aarn packs eliminate biomechanical flaws traditional backpacks make, to eliminate pain while walking and to evenly distribute weight throughout the body. 
A well fitted Aarn pack, and balance pockets combined, allow for natural fluid body movements whilst walking.

WHAT’S MY BACK LENGTH SIZE?

Marathon and Mountain Magics, Flow-Mo Friend, Liquid Agility and Mobile Intention, all come in one back length as they have a long range of adjustments as well as a one size fits all, hip belt.

To measure your back length measure the distance between the tip of the hip bone and the mid-point of your shoulder (where the strap would sit)

·       -  If your back length is less than 36 cm, choose the short: S

·      -  If your back length is greater than 38 cm choose the long: L

·       - If your back length length is between 36- 38 cm either size will fit: S or L

WHAT’S MY HIP BELT SIZE?

Aarn packs that have interchangeable hip belts come with a medium size which fits most. There are two additional sizes, small and large.

·        - If your waist size is less than 85cm choose SMALL

·       -  If your waist is more than 95cm choose LARGE
