The legendary packs that started it all, now better than ever.

The legendary packs that started it all, now better than ever.

We believe a better experience comes from outdoor gear that strikes the optimal balance of weight, durability, and water protection.

Uncompromisingly Light. Unbelievably Strong.

Dyneema® composite fabric is the secret behind our gear's legendary performance. This space-age material is 15 times stronger than steel by weight, yet so light it floats on water. The result is a pack that can withstand the harshest conditions without weighing you down. It's the ultimate in lightweight, durable, and water-resistant protection for your gear.
