In this photo of the Arc'teryx Needle 45, the roll top closure of the main compartment is open to show the laminated pack materials from the interior of the pack. This roll top closure system helps to seal out elements and can be opened or closed with gloves on. Note the hydration pocket and hanger hook (in lower portion of photo).

Arc'teryx Technologies
| Lamination Technology | Arc'teryx pioneered the technology of lamination construction to create leaner, more functional and durable garments. Instead of sewing, they glue in their pockets, zippers, collars, hems and cuffs. |
| Thermomoulded Shoulder Straps | Permanently shaped and sculpted through the thermomoulding process, our shoulder straps follow the body's contours. Superb support and comfort without adding weight or bulk. |
| Die Cut Hypalon | Arc'teryx die cut extremely abrasion resistant Hypalon™ for increased durability and finish the process with rounded shapes and components that wear longer and are less likely to catch on sharp things. |
| Stitch Count | Arc'teryx averages 14-16 stitches per linear inch vs. the industry standard of 8-10 stitches per inch. This unique high stitch count is used on all of Arc'teryx seams, providing a stronger, better quality seam. |
| Drybag™ Closure | The DryBag™ closure system is weatherproof and incredibly easy to use with gloves. Super-quick access and a large opening makes diving into your pack a much easier process. |
| x-Pac™ Fabric | Arc'teryx sourced x-Pac™ fabric for exceptional long-term durability and water shedding properties. Instead of simply coating the interior, this fabric is constructed with a three-layer bonding process. A new white-backed laminate ensures great pack visibility when searching for stowed gear. |
| Thermomoulded Hipbelts/Squashpods™ | Arc'teryx has invented a sculpted hipbelt that curves with the body's contours. Using thermomoulding construction techniques, hipbelts distribute weight evenly and comfortably, while Squashpods act as an extra layer of cushioning for added support. |
