Great adventure doesn't always need to be miles from the nearest outpost of civilization. But finding a big tent to pitch at J Tree or along the Kanc with all the style, quality, comfort and protection of a high-end backcountry shelter can be a challenge. Asashi takes the highly efficient pole configuration from our Losi series and expands it into a spacious 4 person design. It's a touring wagon on a sports car chassis. Setup is straightforward thanks to contiguous pole sleeves, ball and socket attachments for the pole ends and an intuitive, symmetrical design. Asashi also has great optional accessories like a link for joining two together and a Garage vestibule to give you a sheltered spot to work on your bike or sit in chairs when the weather turns for the worse.

Q.} Do I have to get my girlfriend a women's-specific backpack if her torso size fits a men's one? Do the shoulder strap position and waist belt flare really matter and do you wear a women’s-specific backpack?

A.} No, Miguel, you don’t necessarily have to get your girlfriend a women’s specific pack. I often wear men’s or unisex packs with great success. And I know small men who have had luck with women’s packs. Forget about the gender labels and look at the pack itself, and the way it works with your girlfriend’s body shape.
