The Camelbak Sequoia 22 is made for outdoorsy women. With a whole slew of women’s specific features, like a shorter torso and S-shaped shoulder straps to better fit a women’s chest, Camelbak really brought their A game to the world of women’s outdoor gear. Plus, the Sequoia 22 prioritizes comfort over everything else with extra padding in the shoulder straps and hip belt to help you charge uphill.

The Osprey Sirrus 24 Women’s Pack is a classically designed daypack with modern enhancements for breathability and maximum organization. Built out of super burly 210D nylon fabric, the Sirrus 24 is designed to handle whatever you throw at it. With an Airspeed suspension back panel made of mesh, the Sirrus 24 is also one of the best backpacks in its category for ventilation.

Pros

  • Well Ventilated

  • Torso Length Is Adjustable

Cons

  • Heavy Hip-Belt

This really helps reduce the amount of moisture buildup on your back during a hot hiking day, which is perfect for people who sweat a lot on the up-trail. This extra ventilation is also great for people who like to move quickly uphill during high-octane activities or even on trail runs when you need to carry some extra gear.
