This is a review and field test of the latest release of the Vaucluse Backpack Ventilation Frame. Jim from SARS Operations YouTube channel field tested the first release of this product years ago and both Vaucluse and he thought it might be useful for viewers to retest the latest version of the product which is dramatically different from its predecessor.
One of the new accessories available for the current frame is a mesh sleeve, which I highly recommend. The sleeve provides two options for trading off comfort vs airflow. If you are looking for an ultralight and relatively inexpensive means for managing sweating while hiking, perhaps this product is worth a serious consideration.
