Summary

The Mammut Nirvana 28 is a backcountry ski pack with well-thought-out pocket layout and rugged construction, but it struggles with comfort and load support when fully packed. It’s best suited for short, low-output backcountry laps or snowcat/heli-accessed missions rather than longer tours.

Pros

  • +Pocket layout is well designed and helps keep items organized
  • +Fabric and hardware feel high quality and built for longevity
  • +Ability to add a back protector is a thoughtful touch
  • +Excellent avalanche tool pocket with space and sleeves

Cons

  • -Saggy, bulky build reduces carry comfort when loaded
  • -Main compartment items poke into back despite thick padding
  • -Doesn’t earn its price tag given comfort issues
