Frequently Bought Together

Best pack of all time

This is the best backpack I've had and the durability is absolutely outstanding, the features to the pack is incredible and it can fit my whole camping setup including my winter camping setup with space to spare with the comfort of the pack still being the best.
I seriously don't get why there isn't more people buying these packs, I'll definitely be buying the 15L one soon for my smaller hikes

Great Pack

Already had the AS-3 so I expected the 45-L pack would be great as well. I was not disappointed. While I have only had it out for a 7 1/2 mile shakeout, it road well and felt great. The amount of storage is incredible with my two biggest worries 1) Me packing crap I don’t need and 2) Finding everything. Got this to do some longer packrafting/hiking trips and I think it will fit the bill perfectly.

Great backpack

I already have the 15L pack for smaller adventure races but needed something bigger for an upcoming expedition race with packrafting. I like being organised and everything having its own space so this pack is perfect for my needs. I’ve done some training hikes and very happy with the fit and functionality. It’s handy being able to swap over bottle tails between the packs too.

Awesome pack

I'm an expedition medic and just used the 45L pack in the Icelandic Highlands for the first time.... First of all I think Mike is lying, I reckon I can fit way more than 45L in there!

The pockets are perfect, easy access to every bit of kit I need, be it water bottles, food, medical kit, all within easy reach at a moments notice.

An extremely comfortable and durable pack that I will be using for many years to come in every austere environment out there!

Currently taking a look at the 30L bag for shorter expeditions as I loved the 45L so much

Spot-on Adventure Pack

Spot-on for my overnight and weekend hammock adventures. There are many innovative, practical features such as the compression straps on the sides, that can also connect to each other on the back; hight adjustable hip-belt; plenty outside storage/utility pockets; water-bottle holders; helmet net (that I use for an extra pair of shoes), and many more.
The best feature for me personally was the kind support I received – with Mike Kloser phoning me and explaining all the features and helping me make an informed decision. Thanks Mike.
Pack bears weight with comfort and I have loaded it to North of 50 lbs (6L of water being part of the load).
