Arc'teryx Index 40 Boulder Bag

To keep chalk, climbing shoes, and essential bouldering gear neatly contained without cluttering your main daypack, the Arc'teryx Index 40 Boulder Bag in Bracken is built from a high tenacity, water resistant nylon weave. Engineered specifically to solve the mess of chalk dust spilling over clean equipment inside gear haulers, this 40 litre storage solution features a wide opening main access zip with internal organisation dividers. Outfitted with reinforced haul handles, durable zip pulls, an external accessory pocket, and a structured base that stays upright on rough crag surfaces, it offers long term abrasion resistance, efficient gear separation, and effortless cragside utility.
