This weatherproof hydration pack looks like it’s built for stealthy combat missions, making it a great choice for shlepping light trail-work gear or bike tools. Day hikers and mountain bikers will find the roll-top closure main compartment a welcome feature for keeping everything from layers to sandwiches dry, all at a pack weight of around 2 lbs. The pack comes in three technical fabric variations and has four zipped exterior pockets and several external straps for securing gear, as well as a removable tool roll. The back panel is well-padded with a zippered internal compartment for the water reservoir that works with major brand bladders up to 3 liters. MSRP: $260-$270. Missionworkshop.com
