Grams are shaved by using a lighter weight fabric, therefore not as durable as the RL (Rugged Light) models, but for the hardcore its weight that counts above all. Supplied with an internal Duomat that works as a padded hipbelt and a torso length sleeping pad.
Our Verdict
The Mountain marathon has many of the features of the other packs in the OMM range but is made with lighter fabric. The only compromise is therefore durablity over its heavier stable-mates.
