How to pack your Aarn Balance Pockets Photo with and without a camera.
Did you know you can use the Aarn Balance Pockets Photo without your camera too?
Aarnbassador James Harvey from Salty Grins spent 6 months travelling around the UK and Ireland with his Aarn Featherlite Freedom PRO pack and Balance Pockets Photo.
I'll give you a spoiler here: He didn't just use them for transporting his DSLR camera around. Sometimes, he opted to leave the camera behind and use the space for more traditional storage (like food).
Here's what James used his Balance Pockets Photo for and the alternative things he put in the Balance Pockets when he left the camera behind. He also talks about his favourite part of the pockets, the separate compartments!
Check him out: @salty_grins on Instagram and UA-cam - and make sure you check out the Antipode videos for some wanderlust and adventure planning inspiration!

I also have a featherlite freedom and love it. Wouldn't (couldn't) hike without it.
I love my Aarn Front Packs!
Hi Aarn great video but i am wondering when you will making the Large waterwizard for the people who bought a large pack with only a rain cover for the Body pack and no water protection for 2 front Packs i cant understand why they stopped the production of the Water wizard.
Yes please bring large size water wizards jackets please.
Video could be improved to show detail when attaching to the front while on the move.
The Aarn front pack is brilliant
I connect it to my old Mountain Design
Does the amount of weight you put in the balance pockets impact the backpack weight capacity? If pack limit is 33lbs, will I be able to add an additional 8-10lbs in the balance pockets? Thanks!
Cool
Put the 30 to good use in the weekend. HEAPS of space for my shoulder season kit. ua-cam.com/video/4juNswxAQZY/v-deo.html
The front pack is wonderful
The front pack is genius!
Way to go.
The Aarn Front Pack is excellent
The past three years of hiking have been the best since I got my featherlite freedom flow with balance bags. I don't have any more shoulder pain and no issues with the weight I carry.
Can this 40 pack fit in a single tent and a sleeping bag?
Why does this exist. The expedition front packs combined are almost as big as my bag I used to through hike the Colorado trail. I don't understand why this is a thing.
Because it reduces your back pain and improves your posture over the length of your hike. Thereby giving you more stamina for the duration of your hike. That's the thing. I own Aarn and have not used my HLite dyneema duffle for 5 years and can hike 5 days at 16lbs without having to cut my toothbrush! :o) Sometimes science is a good thing.
The front pack is great
Thank you!
Where do you get them? I have a 55L Featherlite Pro.
You can find them here: www.aarnpacks.com/pages/stockists
@@aarnpacksofficial picked them up from Paddy Pallin Perth a few days ago.
I love my Aarn front packs
Great how to video!
Thank you!
Are they available in europe?
Hi There! Yes we ship to Europe :)
Great video
It's so much fun living for yourself that you have to tell everyone
There are Aarn packs. I'm very happy with mine. The Sports Pro balance bags are so handy. My shoulders are buggered so having my water bottles right in front makes life easy.
Nice idea. Beats gobbling up space inside the pack.
Still have one of your very first packs I purchased in Petone after I met you sometime in the early 90's. Serious health problems means it does not get much use these days, but back then it transformed my tramping experience and I'm still grateful for all the effort you've put into their design, production and marketing over so many years.
Thank you!
Where is the store in christchurch,I have 3 aarn packs and want a new one for wife
At Further Faster on Buchan St.
My wet weather gear and poo pack go in the right side pocket. My first aid kit and hygiene bag and similar items go in the left side pocket. The back pocket is where i put my rubbish bag and thongs. This works well for me. It sorts itself out after a week or two on the track. In the mornings, I'm up and at it in under 30 minutes.
Thank you
I'm very happy with my Freedom Pro and sports pro balance bags.
Shop??? ‐ "Converts to a daypack or front pack with Daypack Conversion Straps"
What a phenomenal scenery my friend!
Just did a bit over 200k on the Bibbulmun Track from Pemberton to Walpole with my Featherlite Freedom Pro. Just before I stepped off, I replaced my hip belt with a smaller one after some weight loss and added sports pro balance bags. All up, I was carrying 14kg with 10 days of food and 3 litres of water a day. These little tune ups made a big difference to my comfort and the pace I walked. I'm very happy with the new setup.
Thats great to hear!
I’ve got a Featherlite Freedom pack bought a few years ago. My pockets fit onto the straps and I look over the top of them. Would the new pockets in this video fit onto my pack and can you buy them without buying the backpack?
Hi, Yes you can buy all the pockets separately. Depending on how old your pack is, they should fit.
Such a beautiful presentation my friend! This looks amazing!
Thank you so much 😊
Is that red colour of pack shown in the video going to be a future option? I love it!
"Disruptive Technology".......excellent.....husband just about to buy his first Aarn pack before his first Camino in May......Thank you for your years of research and development...much appreciated
last year, i walked into this store in Christchurch to buy something else. I tried this back pack with a load, and was so surprised to feel like...there was barely a load!i baught it, and have been using it intensely for a year now. I confirm what you say about freedom of movement. This bag is the most comfortable one i have ever had. Besides, it's quite adjustable, so can fit perfectly my very short size. A feature i could never enjoy before.😂. As for durability, it's been through a lot, and ,so far, i have had no issue with it. I try to keep the weight of my pack as low as possible, but i carry a tent, mat, sleeping bag, cooking gear, rain gear and clothes... 10 to 12 kilos...Well, i used to suffer back pain when hiking long distances. But with this pack, not any more! It really makes a difference...
My duty belt weighed a lot, never noticed it.
Can I get a loan?
Ye
I have 2 (overnight & day packs) and never had such comfortable packs
Bring back the marathon magic
My aarn pack is about 22yrs old, well broken in & still going strong & I love it. Never let me down. Used to get comments about the balance pockets now get comments about how old it is 😂
Both sound like great comments!
For 25 years, I have been unable to carry overnight pack due to back injury and subsequent back pain whenever I put more than 6 kg on my back for extended time. My Aarn pack & pockets (bought in 2021) has open hiking opportunities that I dreamed off until then. I've been out on multidays hikes once a month since I got my Aarn pack carrying up to 18kg without any pain at all. It is incredible!!!!!! In addition to the pockets being part of the system, as importantly, I love the customising of the back length: I have a short back length and Aarn is the best fitting ever. Whenever someone intrigued asked me about my pack, they get the full story and explanation about the pack: I'm your perfect lived experience rep! Thank you for persevering with your design!!!
That is so good to hear! And exactly what we want to achieve, get people out hiking more, and for longer with out pain or discomfort. Your story has really made us smile. Happy Hiking!!
Bring back the marathon magic
Brillant, walked Calmino in 2016 and will be using our original packs again in 2024. Love them really fit the body well.
Very handy indeed, though, I feel that they would make me sweat across the chest even in subzero temperatures...
Love Aaron packs
The counterbalance system and harness/belt movement of Aarn packs seems to make carrying loads of 10-20 kilograms an absolute breeze, but I imagine the various moving components and added complexity will accelerate wear and tear compared to traditional packs. It seems I'll need to get one of these at some point and see, but I reckon the longevity will still be better than a lot of high-priced DCF "ultralight" packs on the market. Cheers
I've had mine for 22yrs. So cant speak for the quality of the new packs. But mine's been used & abused & I've never had anything break. Looks like I might have to put a patch on the bottom of one of the balance pockets soon, fabric's getting a bit scuffed.
