Trail Running Packs and Accessories
Purpose-Built Packs for Trail Runners
Every ounce matters on the trail. Whether you are grinding through a fifty-mile ultra or hammering out a fast-and-light summit push, the pack on your back should work with your stride, not against it. OutThere USA trail running packs are designed by athletes who race at the highest level, shaped by thousands of miles of real-world testing across mountain singletrack, desert washes, and alpine ridgelines.
Choosing the right trail running pack comes down to three factors: capacity, stability, and access. Short efforts and training runs call for a streamlined, body-hugging design that carries hydration, nutrition, and a single layer without bounce. Longer days in the mountains demand enough volume for mandatory gear, extra fuel, and a headlamp while still riding close to your center of gravity so you can move fast on technical terrain.
Match the Pack to the Mission
The HP-1 Hip Pack is our answer to the minimalist runner. Built for speed sessions, trail races under marathon distance, and fast approaches where a vest feels like overkill, the HP-1 locks to your hips and keeps essentials within reach. A rear-access main compartment stashes a soft flask and wind shell, while a zippered front pocket organizes gels and keys. The low-profile design eliminates bounce even at race pace. Clip it on and forget it is there.
When the route gets longer and the gear list grows, step up to the WC-15. At 15 liters, it sits in the sweet spot between a running vest and a daypack, giving you room for a full hydration bladder, layers, trekking poles, and race-mandatory equipment. The adjustable harness adapts to any torso length, and the breathable back panel dumps heat on sustained climbs. Side-stretch pockets keep bottles accessible without breaking stride, and dual trekking-pole attachments let you stow poles when the trail pitches downhill.
Both packs share OutThere USA's commitment to durability without unnecessary weight. We use high-tenacity nylon where abrasion matters most and lighter fabrics where weight savings count, so nothing falls apart mid-race and nothing holds you back on the climb. Reflective accents add visibility for early-morning and late-evening miles.
