Product Details

The Arc’teryx Mantis 16 Backpack is the kind of daypack you grab when you want to stay efficient and keep moving. At 16L it’s compact, but the organization is dialed: a spacious panel-load main compartment, a sleeve that works for a laptop or hydration bladder, plus a reservoir sleeve and secure internal pocket for small essentials.

On trail or commuting, it carries comfortably thanks to the padded back panel, frame sheet, ergonomic shoulder straps, and a removable waistbelt for extra stability when the load creeps up. The packcloth is durable and lightweight, and it’s made from 100% recycled polyester with an FC0-DWR finish to help shed light moisture. External storage is practical—stretch mesh side pockets handle bottles, a windshell, or a camera, and the top lid pocket keeps quick-access items right where you expect them.
