Megaversatile, ultralight, and insanely durable. This pack is for plan-ahead thru-hikers and minimalist warriors. For being so light, this animal comes loaded with features.
Enjoy our signature PVT Frame+Belt: an aluminum, closed-shape frame and pivoting hipbelt that allow your pack to move with your natural gait for maximum comfort. The Gorilla's S-curve harness and load lifters carry your haul with even distribution. You also get ample external pockets and a quick-access, fold-over lid to hold as many bananas as you see fit.
Sizing & Fit
To find the best fit for our PVT packs, you will need your torso length, hip and waist measurements. Below we will give you recommendations on how to measure each of these.
Torso length:
Start at the C7 vertebra at the base of your neck. The best way to find this is to bend your neck and feel the first bump along the base of your neck. This bump is where you will want to start your measurement.
Next, you'll want to find the midpoint between your iliac crest. To find your iliac crest, cup your hipbones on both sides and find the center point on your spine. This midpoint is where your thumbs should be pointing.
Finally, you'll need help measuring from the C7 vertebra to your iliac crest. From there, you'll have your torso measurement.
