Arc’teryx Micon 16
Storage
The Arc’teryx Micon 16 bag has a manageable 16-liter capacity.
Materials
The Micon 16 is made from a durable, weather-resistant fabric that protects its contents from light rain or snow.
Design
This bag has Arc’teryx’s signature clean aesthetic.
Construction
The pack is designed to be ultralight, weighing around 400-500 grams.
Carry Options
It has ergonomic shoulder straps, a chest strap, and a top handle.
Organization
The Micon 16 has a zippered mesh pocket that allows quick access to small items inside and a sleeve that can hold a laptop, but I doubt it was designed for it.
Gear Loops
The Arc’teryx Micon 16 has external straps for attaching skis or snowboards, but I suspect this would be very challenging with a bag of this size; the straps would work much better on a larger Micon.
My Uses
Snowboarding:
The Micon 16’s small size makes it my go-to for carrying a small amount of gear on the slopes. It can have a shell, a water bottle, and an extra pair of goggles, but asking it to fit more will be challenging. It also comes with an external attachment to carry my helmet. It’s weather resistance and tough exterior will handle anything I throw at it, and my things always remain dry after a full day of opening and closing on the mountain
Gym and Travel: It is an excellent second carry-on bag for flights, as my Micon 32 is my first.
I picked this bag up at Arc’teryx.
