[SOLD]FS [VIC MELB] Lowe Alpine TFX Horizon 65 pack

Lowe Alpine TFX Horizon 65 pack in very good condition.

Quoting the product tag:

65lt/4000cu.in. 2.2kg/4lb 14oz

TFX 5 adjustable back. Large bellows side pockets. Rain cover. Hydration system compatible. Two compartments with zip-out divider.


Back length adjustment is stated on the tag as ranging from XS 23"/58cm to XS 15"/38cm. I have it set at 18"/45cm, which is described as Medium.

I bought the pack in August 2009 from Bogong Equipment for $349. Checking my bushwalking notes I've found it was used for only 32 trips. At that time I mainly did day trips.

Once I started doing multi-day trips more frequently, especially to dry places like the Flinders and Gammon Ranges, I wanted a larger capacity pack. So I bought an Aarn backpack and pockets in November 2013.

Thinking that the Aarn might eventually turn out to be less than ideal, and also that perhaps it might be more prone to damage, I held on the Lowe. But I haven't used it since 2013. I don't have an accurate idea on what the Lowe is worth, so make me an offer if you are interested in buying it.

Good question, neilmny. I wish I had a good answer. But can't find any decent information so far about what a fair price might be. I was hoping that if anyone is interested they might make an offer.

Alright, I guess the selling price ought to be $65. That's only $1 per litre.

Some other packs for sale here reminded me that I put this one up a while ago. Still for sale. It probably ought to be $0:99 per litre.
