Gecko VP 5+ Vest Pack Montane Outlet

Montane says

Made for runners by runners, the GECKO VP 5+ builds on 100,000’s of kilometres of experience. An anatomically driven body hugging fit that’s as secure as a Gecko, increased accessible storage and POLYGIENE® treatment means you wear rather than carry your kit, when moving fast on trails and in the mountains.
