UOG TOP PICK: Stable, supportive and built for longer days in the hills, the NEMO Resolve series combines technical comfort with smart trail-focused organisation. A top pick for fast-paced hiking and lightweight mountain adventures.
Nemo says:
Summiting New Heights With Ease.
For more technical day activities (think: climbing and mountaineering) or short overnights, our Resolve 35L pack handles
the load without weighing you down. This roomy capacity option is made with the same abrasion-resistant, water-resistant
exterior fabric as other Resolve models, and cushioned with recycled, recyclable material that keeps you drier and cool.
A top-load construction enables quick packing of equipment and extra layers, and this pack size is enhanced with the
strength and adjustability necessary for tougher journeys.
Our Verdict
The Resolve 35L feels designed for active day hiking where stability and carrying comfort matter equally. The close-fitting shape keeps the pack secure when moving quickly, while the spring steel frame and structured back panel provide noticeably more support than many lightweight daypacks in this category.
NEMO’s material choices help the pack stand out. The CERO fabric feels tough and weather-resistant without becoming overly heavy. However, it is the CCubed cushioning that I find most interesting. Rather than relying on traditional dense foam, NEMO uses a highly air-filled structure across the shoulder straps and back panel to improve airflow and reduce moisture build-up in the main contact areas.
I also like the shoulder strap pockets and removable compression system, both of which make the pack easier to live with on the move. Overall, this feels best suited to fast day hikers and lightweight mountain walkers wanting a stable, supportive technical pack for longer outings.
