Why We Like The Db Equipment Snow Pro Vest 8L
A nice alternative to the typical backpack, the Db Snow Pro Vest 8L lets us carry our essentials close to our body while distributing the weight evenly around our torso. Built for skiers and snowboarders, this vest-pack features plenty of pockets for our skins, snacks, gloves, and avalanche equipment. The Snow Pro Vest is compatible with the Safeback SBX System (not included) for additional avalanche safety. With a run time of 90 minutes, this system pumps clean air into the backpack and through outlet hoses on the shoulder straps to direct airflow to the face for up to 90 minutes.

Places for everything.

I've used it once going backcountry snowboarding. Smart design. Places for everything you need when going backcountry. I like that the profile is small enough to wear on a lift. Perfect for day trips. Enough room to shed one layer into it. Good weight distribution. Wish it was easier to buy the Safeback. I had to order it directly from the manufacturer ($400) who made me provide a receipt that I bought the vest.
