When you need everything for anything, grab the Chacabuco and go. It houses all your gear in three separate compartments, has reflective piping for night commutes and an exterior shock cord for additional stowage. The generous main compartment carries most things, and comes with a padded sleeve that's raised to protect up to a 17-inch laptop. Equipped with a tube port, the sleeve also accepts a hydration reservoir when you leave your laptop at home. A secondary pocket stores everyday necessities, like keys, pens and a phone. A zippered outside pocket holds power bars, and a microfleece-lined top pocket protects sunglasses or an audio device. Two stretch pockets keep water bottles within reach. The Chacabuco's suspension system uses airflow mesh shoulder straps and back panel, a webbing waistbelt and a sternum strap with an emergency whistle. Compression straps stabilize the load. Made from 420-denier 100% nylon oxford plain weave with an 840-denier 100% ballistics nylon bottom. The lining is 200-denier 100% polyester. All fabrics have a Deluge® DWR (durable water repellent) finish.

Technology
Deluge® DWR
Patagonia’s proprietary durable water repellent fabric finish, Deluge DWR, lasts substantially longer than standard DWRs. Garments with the Deluge DWR finish have like-new repellency after years of extensive use.
The Good:
It's an excellent pack, thoughtfully designed, well made, tough and durable (which is good for the environment because it won't have to be replaced soon).
The Bad:
We wanted to be able to price the Chacabuco Pack competitively in a crowded market, but using recycled materials, which are costly, would have put us out of range. So the Chacabuco Pack embodies no environmental innovation. The nylon is virgin, its polyurethane coating solvent- rather than water-based and, like all our packs and rainwear, it has a DWR (durable water repellent) surface water-repellent that involves the use of PFOA. The pack is not recyclable.
What We Think:
We're proud of the pack's design and performance but not of its conventional environmental footprint. We hope to switch to recycled nylon in the future.
