OUR SIMPLE, HIGHLY VERSATILE MULTISPORT PACK

The Porter 85 is designed for explorers that want to do all the things. With added capacity for clothing, dry suits, additional days’ worth of food, or supplementary equipment like boats, paddles, or ropes, this pack is crucial for the multi-est multisporter. Ideal for four-season, extended trips into the backcountry where resupply points aren't available and/or bulkier cold weather gear is required

We designed the Porter for the expert ultralight backpacker or climber who moves fast, goes far and travels light. It’s ideal for shorter-duration adventures, where you’re sharing gear with your partner. Made from 100% waterproof Dyneema® Composite Fabrics (formerly Cuben Fiber), this backpack is highly durable and weatherproof. Use it with our Stuff Sacks for a nearly perfect waterproof kit.

    Great Pack
    Lightest pack made at this size. Beautifully made and has everything you really need, and nothing you don’t need which is sometimes harder to figure out. Not cheap, but worth every cent. Nothing else compares.
