Pros: Any bag named after one of the gnarliest resorts in Europe has to be able to handle just about anything. The Pro Chamonix has loads of shred-specific features such as fleece-lined goggle pocket and horizontal snowboard carry function. There’s a quick-access front rescue compartment, making the more essential bits of kit easy to get hold of in a hurry.
Cons: It’s not really suited to life as an ‘everyday’ bag, being more backcountry-specific than most. Unless you get off-piste a lot, that’s quite a high price to be forking out.
